【 摘 要 】

2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol (DCIP) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were coadsorbed on a porous carbon felt (CF) from their mixed aqueous solution under ultrasound irradiation for 5 min. The resulting DCIP and HRP-coadsorbed CF (DCIP/HRP-CF) showed an excellent bioelectrocatalytic activity for the reduction of H₂O₂. The coadsorption of DCIP together with HRP was essential to obtain larger bioelectrocatalytic current to H₂O₂. The DCIP/HRP-CF was successfully used as a working electrode unit of a bioelectrocatalytic flow-through detector for highly sensitive and continuous amperometric determination of H₂O₂. Under the optimized operational conditions (i.e., applied potential, +0.2 V versus Ag/AgCl; carrier pH 5.0, and carrier flow rate, 1.9 mL/min), the cathodic peak current of H₂O₂ linearly increased over the concentration range from 0.1 to 30 μM (the sensitivity, 0.88 μA/μM (slope of linear part); the limit of detection, 0.1 μM (S/N = 3) current noise level, 30 nA) with a sample through-put of ca. 40–90 samples/h.
