Abstract
The self-powered electrochemical sensor (SPES), an analytical sensing device without external power supply, is integrated with the dual function of power supply and detection performance, which lay the foundation for the development of intelligent and portable electrochemical sensing devices. Herein, a novel SPES based on a zinc-air battery was constructed for the detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in the lysate of colon cancer cells. Typically, an Fe/Fe3C@graphene foam with oxygen reduction performance was used to construct SPES based on a zinc-air battery (ZAB-SPES), which brings the open-circuit voltage to 1.30 V. Among them, the poisoning effect of H2S causes the catalytic performance of the oxygen reduction catalyst to decrease, causing a significant decrease in the discharge voltage of ZAB. Based on this principle, ZAB-SPES was constructed for the detection of H2S using a digital multimeter. The proposed ZAB-SPES demonstrated good selectivity and reproducibility for detecting H2S compared to the results of the H2S-specific fluorescence probe. This strategy enriches the idea of constructing a self-powered sensor and a digital multimeter as detection devices, providing technical support for the portability of SPESs.
