The electrochemical properties of a Prussian blue (PB) electrode were improved by introducing cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) into PB films. The novel hybrid films (PB/CTAB/AuNPs) were fabricated by electrodepositing PB and AuNPs in the presence of CTAB. The electrochemical behavior of the hybrid film in some supporting electrolyte (cations for the K+, Na+, or K+/Na+) was investigated in detail, and well-defined and reversible voltammetric responses were obtained in Na+-based electrolytes. The catalytic activity of the PB/CTAB/AuNPs electrode toward hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) reduction at a neutral pH was also investigated, and the results indicated that the electrochemical reduction of H2O2 in the presence of physiological levels of Na+ was superior to that of a PB-modified electrode. Moreover, the PB/CTAB/AuNPs electrode exhibited good performance, a low detection limit (0.1 μM), and high stability at a wide range of concentrations (0.882−195 μM). To determine the perfor...
