Abstract
We demonstrate that the "electrocatalytic" hydrogen peroxide detection reported at multiwalled carbon nanotube modified electrodes is due to iron oxide particles arising from the chemical vapor deposition nanotube fabrication process rather than due to intrinsic catalysis attributable to the carbon nanotubes arising, for example, from edge plane-like sites/defects.
