Perovskite-based electrochemiluminescence analysis of H2O2

Abstract

The detection of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) represents an extensive requirement across various domains, including food, environmental, and medical fields. This study introduces a highly sensitive technique for the quantification of H₂O₂, integrating the electrochemiluminescence properties of perovskite with bio-catalyzed precipitation. A water-soluble perovskite-based electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensing interface was constructed, wherein H₂O₂ catalyzes a precipitation reaction that leads to the formation of an insoluble precipitate on the electrode surface. This occurrence effectively quenches the electrochemiluminescence signal of the perovskite, thus facilitating the quantitative detection of H₂O₂. The modified perovskite demonstrated excellent ECL performance, offering a stable signal source, while the bio-catalyzed precipitation reaction significantly amplified the quenching effect, thereby enhancing detection sensitivity. This strategy exhibits excellent stability and sensitivity, presenting a promising method for the detection of hydrogen peroxide, which holds great potential for applications in various fields.
