In situ growth of PtMn nanoparticles on Layered Double Hydroxide for colorimetric determination of hydrogen peroxide

Abstract

In this report, Platinum manganese nanoparticles (PtMn NPs) were attached onto Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH) via a facile in-situ growth strategy. Based on the prepared nanoparticles, a novel colorimetric sensor for fast and sensitive determination of H2O2 was established. The established colorimetric sensing platform exhibited perfect peroxidase-like activities confirmed by oxidating 4, 4'-Bi-2, 6-xylidine (TMB) with H2O2. The sensing platform was pH and temperature-dependent.
