Sensing and biosensing with screen printed electrodes modified with nanostructured nickel oxide thin films prepared by magnetron sputtering at oblique angles

摘要

This work reports about the sensing and biosensing applications of a novel screen printed electrode (SPE) modified by nanostructured nickel oxide thin films obtained by reactive magnetron sputtering under an oblique angle configuration. Using these films as electrodes we demonstrate their ability to detect hydrogen peroxide under neutral pH conditions. Furthermore, as a proof-of-concept, NiO-modified SPEs have been developed and their cholesterol biosensing properties determined by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry.
