Abstract
A novel strategy for extremely durable, reliable, and selective in situ real-time determination of superoxide anion (O2-) based on direct electron transfer of a biomimetic superoxide dismutase (SOD), Mn 3(PO4)2, at highly conductive TiO2 nanoneedles is reported for the first time, and is further exploited for the determination of O2- from living normal and cancer ovary cells directly adhered onto the modified surface, suggesting that O 2- might be proposed as a biomarker of cancer.
