Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) is a vital messenger molecule facilitating signal transmission within cellular systems. The accurate quantification of H 2 O 2 in complex environments, such as human serum, is instrumental in elucidating its diverse biological functions. In this study, we present the development of a robust electrode platform by integrating hemoglobin onto iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4) nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as a conducting support for the sensitive detection of H 2 O 2 in human serum. The Fe 3 O 4 /rGO nanocomposite was synthesized via a facile single-step thermolysis reaction in the presence of oleylamine. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed the formation of highly monodisperse Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles that were uniformly dispersed over the reduced graphene surface. The rGO surface provided abundant active sites (Fe 3 O 4) for H 2 O 2 sensing. Consequently, the resulting Hb/Fe 3 O 4 @rGO modified electrode exhibited a wide linear range of H 2 O 2 concentrations from 1.5 to 2684 µM, demonstrating high sensitivity and low detection limit. Further characterization of the Hb/Fe 3 O 4 @rGO/GC electrode revealed a high surface coverage (τ = 3.0 × 10−9 mol cm−2), charge transfer coefficient (α = 0.83), and electron transfer rate constant (k s = 1.33 s−1). Subsequently, the Hb/Fe 3 O 4 @rGO/GC sensor probe was employed to analyze H 2 O 2 in real human serum samples, demonstrating excellent recovery rates ranging from 99.8 % to 104.0 %. The nanocomposite material, designed through the innovative combination of graphene oxide reduction, Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticle decoration, and oleylamine amide/amine bonding, serves as an excellent electrode material for H 2 O 2 concentration sensing. Thus, this study presents a promising platform for the future determination of H 2 O 2 biomarkers in clinical settings. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
