Nanoporous carbon materials are highly important materials for a wide array of applications. Here we show that nanoporous carbon can act as highly active materials for electrochemical sensing. We observed that nanoporous carbon material exhibits a faster heterogeneous electron transfer than graphite and pure carbon nanotubes. Nanoporous carbon exhibits a superior electrochemical performance for sensing of important biomarkers such as dopamine, ascorbic acid, uric acid, NADH, DNA bases, and forensic-related compounds such as nitroaromatic explosives.
纳米多孔碳材料在众多应用中是非常重要的材料。在这里，我们表明纳米多孔碳可以作为电化学传感的高活性材料。我们观察到纳米多孔碳材料表现出比石墨和纯碳纳米管更快的非均相电子转移。纳米多孔碳在检测多巴胺、抗坏血酸、尿酸、NADH、DNA 碱基和法医相关化合物（如硝基芳香族爆炸物）等重要生物标志物方面表现出优异的电化学性能。
