In this study, an attempt has been made to collect the research that has been done on the construction and design of the H₂O₂ sensor. So far, many efforts have been made to quickly and sensitively determine H₂O₂ concentration based on different analytical principles. In this study, the importance of H₂O₂, its applications in various industries, especially the food industry, and the importance of measuring it with different techniques, especially portable sensors and on-site analysis, have been investigated and studied.

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a very simple molecule in nature, but due to its strong oxidizing and reducing properties, it has been widely used in the pharmaceutical, medical, environmental, mining, textile, paper, food production and chemical industries. Sensitive, rapid and continuous detection of H₂O₂ is of great importance in many systems for product quality control, health care, medical diagnostics, food safety and environmental protection.

Various methods have been developed and applied for the analysis of H₂O₂, such as fluorescence, colorimetry and electrochemistry, among them, the electrochemical technique due to its advantages in simple instrumentation, easy miniaturization, sensitivity and selectivity.

Monitoring the H₂O₂ concentration level is of practical importance for academic and industrial purposes. Edible oils are prone to oxidation during processing and storage, which may adversely affect oil quality and human health. Determination of peroxide value (PV) of edible oils is essential because PV is one of the most common quality parameters for monitoring lipid oxidation and oil quality control. The development of cheap, simple, fast, sensitive and selective H₂O₂ sensors is essential.
