The electrochemical detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has become more and more important in industrial production, daily life, biological process, green energy chemistry, and other fields (especially for the detection of low concentration of H2O2). Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates to replace the established H2O2 sensors based on precious metals or enzymes. This review summarizes recent advances in MOF-based H2O2 electrochemical sensors, including conductive MOFs, MOFs with chemical modifications, MOFs-composites, and MOF derivatives. Finally, the challenges and prospects for the optimization and design of H2O2 electrochemical sensors with ultra-low detection limit and long-life are presented.
