This study presents a new, reusable optical sensor for detecting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The sensor uses fluorescence and can detect H2O2 from 0.01 to 1 M, remaining stable for over 40 days.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Chemical Sensing

Background:

  • Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a key molecule in various biological and chemical processes.
  • Development of robust and sensitive H2O2 sensors is crucial for accurate monitoring.
  • Existing optical sensors often face challenges with stability and reusability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel, robust, and reversible optical sensor for hydrogen peroxide detection.
  • To create a single-layer fluorescence-based H2O2 sensor using a one-pot formulation.
  • To characterize the sensor's performance, stability, and detection range.

Main Methods:

  • Preparation of a fluorescent dye ion-pair [Ru(bpy)3(2+)(Ph4B(-))2].
  • Utilizing ruthenium dioxide hydrate (RuO2.xH2O) as an inorganic catalyst.
