The β-cyclodextrin shell of synthesized silver nanoparticles (β  CD-AgNPs  ) are found to enhance the detection of hydrogen peroxide in urine when compared to the Horse Radish Peroxidase assay kit. Nanoparticles are confirmed by the UV-Vis absorbance of their localized surface plasmonic resonance (LSPR) at 384 nm. The mean size of the β  CD-AgNPs  is 53 nm/diameter; XRD analysis shows a face-centered cubic structure. The crystalline structure of type 4H hexagonal nature of the AgNPs with 2.4 nm β-CD coating onto is confirmed using aberration corrected high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). A silver atomic lattice at 2.50 Å and 2.41 Å corresponding to (100) and (101) Miller indices is confirmed using the HRTEM. The scope of β  CD-AgNPs  to detect hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) in aqueous media and human urine is investigated. The test is optimized by examining the effect of volumes of nanoparticles, the pH of the medium, and the kinetic and temperature effect on H 2 O 2 detection. The β  CD-AgNPs  test is used as a refined protocol, which demonstrated improved sensitivity towards H 2 O 2 in urine compared to the values obtained by the Horse Radish Assay kit. Direct assessment of H 2 O 2 by the β  CD-AgNPs  test presented always with a linear response in the nM, μM, and mM ranges with a limit of detection of 1.47 nM and a quantitation limit of 3.76 nM. While a linear response obtained from 1.3 to 37.3 nmoles of H 2 O 2 /mole creatinine with a slope of 0.0075 and regression coefficient of 0.9955 when the β  CD-AgNPs  is used as refined test of creatinine. Values ranging from 34.62 ± 0.23 nmoles of H 2 O 2 /mole of creatinine and 54.61 ± 1.04 nmoles of H 2 O 2 /mole of creatinine when the matrix is not diluted and between 32.16 ± 0.42 nmoles of H 2 O 2 /mole of creatinine and 49.66 ± 0.80 nmoles of H 2 O 2 /mole of creatinine when the matrix is twice diluted are found in freshly voided urine of seven apparent healthy men aged between 20 and 40 years old.
