title: A novel non-enzymatic hydrogen peroxide sensor based on Mn-nitrilotriacetate acid (Mn-NTA) nanowires.
abstract: A novel non-enzymatic hydrogen peroxide sensor was realized from Mn-nitrilotriacetate acid (Mn-NTA) nanowires, which were successfully fabricated via a facile hydrothermal route. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) revealed that the Mn-NTA nanowires exhibited direct electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of H(2)O(2) in phosphate buffer solution. The sensor showed linear response to H(2)O(2) at the concentrations range from 5 x 10(-6)M to 2.5 x 10(-3)M with a detection limit of 2 x 10(-7)M. The sensitivity was up to 78.9 microA mM(-1)cm(-2). These results indicated that the Mn-NTA nanowires were promising in realizing non-enzymatic H(2)O(2) detection.
