Pt-Pd bimetallic alloy nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (Pt-Pd-BMI·PF6) were employed together with a peroxidase (PO) enzyme from cauliflower immobilized on nanoclay for the development of a new biosensor for polyphenol determination by square-wave voltammetry (SWV). The biosensor demonstrated good repeatability and reproducibility, low limit of detection (LOD = 3.7 × 10(-7) mol L(-1) for caffeic acid (CA)), and adequate lifetime and stability (maintaining over 80% of the response over 80 days of evaluation, and allowing over 600 measurements by SWV for each electrode).
