Prussian blue (PB) modified titanate nanotubes (PB‐TiNT) have been synthesized by the reaction of Fe 2+ ‐modified TiNT with hexacyanoferrate(III) ions. The rate constant for heterogeneous catalytic reaction between PB‐TiNT and H 2 O 2 was found to be k =2×10 4  dm 3  mol −1  s −1 , which is an order of magnitude higher than the values of k reported for conventionally prepared, electrochemically deposited PB films. On the PB‐TiNT modified electrode with subnanomolar surface concentration of PB ( Γ (PB)=2.8×10 −11  mol/cm 2 ), a stable, reproducible and linear response towards H 2 O 2 was obtained in the concentration range 0.02–4 mM, with the sensitivity of 0.10 AM −1  cm −2 at −150 mV.
