Abstract
A “modular approach” has been demonstrated for the preparation of nanodiamond (ND) based sponges (NS) with entrapped enzyme (horseradish peroxidase, HRP) (ND-NS(HRP)) and utilization as an electrochemical probe for detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). ND-NS comprises ND, porous poly(aniline)–poly(2-acrylamido 2-methyl propane sulfonic acid) (PANI–PAMPSA) network and entrapped HRP. Field emission scanning electron microscope image of ND-NS(HRP) reveals sponge like suprastructure comprising interconnected nanospheres with numerous openings/pinholes/cavities. The entrapped HRP in ND-NS exhibits effective direct electron transfer with an electron transfer rate constant of 1.85s−1. ND-NS(HRP) exhibited excellent bioelectrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with a wide linear concentration range (1–45mM), quick response (5s), high sensitivity (129.6μAM−1) and low detection limit 59μM (S/N=3).
