Abstract

We present a simple, sensitive, and specific colorimetric using the peroxidase properties method based on Pt doped WO3 nanosheets to detect the cysteine. Pt@WO3NSs were synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) methods. The response surface methodology (RSM) method based on the central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize test parameters such as pH, nanosheet concentration, and temperature. When cysteine is present in the environment due to its competition with 3,3′, 5,5′-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the use of hydrogen peroxide, the blue discoloration is reduced compared to the absence of cysteine and leads to its detection. We have favorably created a peculiar approach for sensing cysteine based on the colorimetric method in solution and paper with linear range 0.01–15 μM, 0.005–14 μM and R2 = 0.9887 and R2 = 0.9871 respectively. The detection limit for solution-based is 1.2 nM and for paper-based is 1 nM. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
