RSD was lower than 2%. The obtained results are in a good agreement with the amounts of the H<span id="cke_bm_668S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_668E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂declared by producers (3%) in the both investigated samples. The Pt-C/CPE was also tested for monitoring of the H<span id="cke_bm_674S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_674E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂ residual concentration in contact lens&nbsp; solution&nbsp; during&nbsp; its&nbsp; neutralization/decomposition&nbsp; rocess.&nbsp; At&nbsp; 6&nbsp; h&nbsp; of<span id="cke_bm_675E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>&nbsp; neutralization&nbsp; treatment 24.68 &micro;g mL -1 of the H <span id="cke_bm_680S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_680E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂was&nbsp; determined which is almost half of the allowedH2<span id="cke_bm_681E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O2 concentration in the case of the contact lens solution concerningthe limit of eye irritation. CPE&nbsp; was&nbsp; surface&nbsp;&nbsp; modified&nbsp; with&nbsp; multiwalled&nbsp; carbon&nbsp; nanotubes&nbsp; (MWCNT)&nbsp; and&nbsp; with composites of MnO₂-MWCNT or Pt-MWCNT by drop coating method to prepare simply, sensitive and reliable volta<span id="cke_bm_669E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>mmetric sensors for the determination of H <span id="cke_bm_687S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_687E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂in selected sample. The results of the&nbsp; SEM/<span id="cke_bm_688E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>EDS&nbsp; analysis&nbsp; of&nbsp; composite&nbsp; materials&nbsp; have&nbsp; confirmed&nbsp; that&nbsp; the&nbsp; mediators,&nbsp; MnO ₂ and&nbsp; Pt&nbsp; articles, are randomly distributed on the surface of MWCNT and represent nearly 5% (m:m) of the composite expressed as Mn and Pt. CV measurements were performed&nbsp; with prepared electrodes in acetate&nbsp; (pH&nbsp; 4.50),&nbsp; phosphate&nbsp; (pH&nbsp; 7.50)&nbsp; and&nbsp; borate&nbsp; (pH&nbsp; 9.18)&nbsp; buffers&nbsp; to&nbsp; characterize&nbsp; the&nbsp; basic electrochemical&nbsp; behavior&nbsp; of&nbsp; H <span id="cke_bm_694S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_694E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂ and&nbsp; to&nbsp; select&nbsp; the&nbsp; working&nbsp; potentials&nbsp; suitable&nbsp; for&nbsp; amperometric determination&nbsp; of&nbsp; this&nbsp; target&nbsp; analyte.&nbsp; The&nbsp; Pt-MWCNT/CPE&nbsp; performs&nbsp; well&nbsp; in&nbsp; phosphate&nbsp; buffer pH .50 and acetate buffer solution pH 4.50 in the&nbsp; negative as well as in the positive polarization range with RSD mainly lower than 2.5%. In case of MnO₂-MWCNT/CPE at <span id="cke_bm_695E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>0.30 V and above the H<span id="cke_bm_701S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_701E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂oxidation signal is rem<span id="cke_bm_702E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>arkable in slightly alkaline media (pH 7.50), at pH 4.50 this electrode showed poor behavior and at pH 9.18 offered acceptable performance. LOQs were in the &micro;g mL -1 concentration&nbsp; range.&nbsp; H<span id="cke_bm_707S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_707E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂was&nbsp; determined&nbsp; in&nbsp; a&nbsp; spiked&nbsp; milk&nbsp; sample&nbsp; by&nbsp; standard addition&nbsp; method after&nbsp; appropriate&nbsp; sample&nbsp; preparation&nbsp; (pH&nbsp; adjustment and&nbsp; centrifugation)&nbsp; and&nbsp; using&nbsp; optimized amperometric p<span id="cke_bm_708E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>rocedure (acetate buffer pH 4.50, working potential -0.75 V) by Pt-MWCNT/CPE as a working electrode. RSD for three repeated measurements was 2.5%, while the recovery of the method was a bit higher than 71%. The&nbsp; composite&nbsp; materials&nbsp; consisting&nbsp; of&nbsp; MWCNT&nbsp; and&nbsp; Pd&nbsp; (Pd-MWCNT)&nbsp; or&nbsp; Pt&nbsp; containing particles&nbsp; (Pt-WCNT)&nbsp; were&nbsp; applied&nbsp; to&nbsp; the&nbsp; preparation&nbsp; of&nbsp; bulk- modified&nbsp; SPCEs&nbsp; (Pd-MWCNTSPCE and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE) and surface modifiedSPCE (Pd- MWCNT/SPCE). These electrodes, as well as unmodified SPCE and MWCNT-SPCE,&nbsp; were characterized by CV and&nbsp; amperometry&nbsp; in phosphate&nbsp; buffer&nbsp; solution&nbsp; of&nbsp; pH&nbsp; 7.50&nbsp; for&nbsp; the&nbsp; H<span id="cke_bm_713S" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>₂<span id="cke_bm_713E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>O₂determination.&nbsp; Pd-MWCNT-SPCE&nbsp; and&nbsp; PdMWCNT/SPCEare convenient for the etermination of H 2O2 at working potentials from -0.50 to 0.50 V, and Pt-MWCNT-SPCE at investigated working potentials in the range from -0.80 to 0.70 V. These electrodes were then modified with glucose&nbsp; oxidase (GOx) by drop coating a solution of GOxand Nafion &reg; on their surface, whereby the applied amount of biococktail was optimized. GOx/PdMWCNT-SPCE&nbsp; showed&nbsp; better&nbsp; analytical&nbsp; performance&nbsp; for&nbsp; glucose&nbsp; determination&nbsp; in&nbsp; comparison with&nbsp; GOx/Pd-MWCNT/SPCE.&nbsp; The&nbsp; optimal&nbsp; working&nbsp; potential&nbsp; for&nbsp; GOx/Pd-MWCNT- SPCE&nbsp; was -0.40 V vs. SCE and <span id="cke_bm_714E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>satisfactory linearity was obtained in the investigated glucose concentration range from 0.16 to 0.97 mmol L -1 (from 29.1 to 174&nbsp; &micro;g mL -1 ), hile the LOQ was 0.14 mmol L -1 (25 &micro;g mL -1 ). The optimized method based on GOx/Pd-MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied to the determination of glucose in multifloral honey sample.&nbsp; The results are in a good agreement with those&nbsp; obtained by commercially available equipment for determination of glucose. Optimal working potential&nbsp; for&nbsp; GOx/Pt-MWCNT-SPCE&nbsp; was&nbsp; -0.50&nbsp; V&nbsp; vs.&nbsp; SCE,&nbsp; and&nbsp; the&nbsp;&nbsp; satisfactory&nbsp; linearity&nbsp; was obtained in the investigated concentration range ofglucose from 65.8 to 260.6&nbsp; &micro;g mL -1 , with LOQ of 35&nbsp; &micro;g mL -1 . The optimized method based on GOx/Pt- MWCNT-SPCE was successfully applied for determination of glucose in white grape and glucose tablets (Traubenzucker-bonbons) samples, whereby&nbsp; the&nbsp; obtained&nbsp; results&nbsp; were&nbsp; in&nbsp; a&nbsp; good&nbsp; agreement&nbsp; with&nbsp; the&nbsp; results&nbsp; obtained&nbsp; by&nbsp; Accu-Chek device. Based on the results, the developed analytical methods are first of all simple, reliable and suitable&nbsp; for&nbsp; obtaining&nbsp; fast&nbsp; information&nbsp; about&nbsp; the&nbsp; content&nbsp; of&nbsp; H ₂O₂ in&nbsp; different&nbsp; types&nbsp; of&nbsp; samples. Certainly the selection of a suitable working electrode, as well as the optimization of experimental conditions are key factors for the successful determination of H₂O₂.</p>
