Abstract

In this study, silver-functionalized bismuth oxide (AgBi2O3) nanoparticles (SBO NPs) were successfully synthesized by a highly efficient hydrothermal method. The as-synthesized SBO nanoparticles were characterized using FT-IR, P-XRD, XPS, HR-SEM, and HR-TEM analytical methods. It was found that the NPs were in spherical shape and hexagonal crystal phase. The newly prepared SBO electrode was further utilized for the detection of glucose, NO2- and H2O2 by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometric methods. The electrodes exhibited high sensitivity (2.153 μA mM-1 cm-2 for glucose, 22 μA mM-1 cm-2 for NO2- and 1.72 μA mM-1 cm-2 for H2O2), low LOD (0.87 μM for glucose, 2.8 μM for NO2- and 1.15 μM for H2O2) and quick response time (3 s for glucose, 2 s for both NO2- and H2O2 respectively). The sensor exhibited outstanding selectivity despite the presence of various interferences. The developed sensor exhibited good repeatability, reproducibility, and stability. In addition, the sensor was used to measure glucose, H2O2 in human serum, and NO2- in milk and river water samples, demonstrating its potential for use in the real sample.
