Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL)-based analytical methods utilize luminophores that need to be activated with an oxidizing agent to trigger CL emission. Despite its susceptibility to decomposition when exposed to external light or trace metals, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has been widely used to develop chemiluminescent methods due to the limited number of suitable alternatives for activating chemiluminescent luminophores. Also, analytical methods based on the well-known luminol/H2O2 CL system have low sensitivity. Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a naturally abundant and environmentally benign alternative oxidant for luminol and other CL luminophores. However, DO alone is inactive and needs an efficient catalyst or a coreaction accelerator for its activation. Because of the narrow bandgap of VS4 (ca. 1.12 eV), it can facilitate fast electron-transfer kinetics with an acceptor molecule such as DO. Here, we introduce vanadium tetrasulfide (VS4) to boost CL for the first time. Under the optimized conditions, VS4 nanodendrite catalyzes the generation of reactive oxygen species by activating DO which subsequently reacts with luminol to generate intense CL. It enhances the CL intensity of luminol/DO by about 10,000 times. Surprisingly, hemin remarkably quenches the generated CL of luminol/DO/VS4 nanodendrites, which is completely opposite to its typical enhancement of luminol CL. Based on the remarkable concentration-dependent quenching of the luminol/DO/VS4 nanodendrite CL by hemin, we have developed a sensitive CL method that can selectively detect hemin in the linear concentration range of 1-250 nM and achieved a limit of detection of 0.11 nM. The practical utility of the developed method was demonstrated by the determination of hemin in a pharmaceutical drug for the treatment of acute intermittent porphyria and in human serum. This study demonstrates that VS4 holds great promise in analytical method development.

Abstract
Nanozymes have recently become a research hotspot because of the advantages of good stability, excellent catalytic performance and easy storage in comparison to natural enzymes. Nanozymes with oxidase-like activity get special attention because they needn't the participation of hydrogen peroxide. In this paper, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) nanogel with oxidase-like activity was synthesized for the first time. The catalytic mechanism was explored by EPR and UV spectroscopy after adding specific trapping agents of ROS, and the results showed that PNIPAM NG can catalyze O2 to 1O2. In the presence of PNIPAM NG, o-phenylenediamine (OPD) and ascorbic acid (AA) can be oxidized to 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD) and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), and DHA can further react with OPD to produce a fluorescence substance. The colorimetric and fluorescence detection platforms for AA were constructed based on the above principles. Both platforms have satisfactory results in real samples. The fluorescence platform has better sensitivity and selectivity than the colorimetric platform.

Abstract
Vascular diseases (VDs) pose the leading threat worldwide due to high morbidity and mortality. The detection of VDs is commonly dependent on individual signs, which limits the accuracy and timeliness of therapies, especially for asymptomatic patients in clinical management. Therefore, more effective early diagnosis and lesion-targeted treatments remain a pressing clinical need. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials formed by the coordination of inorganic metal ions and organic ligands. Due to their unique high specific surface area, structural flexibility, and functional versatility, MOFs are recognized as highly promising candidates for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the field of VDs. In this review, the potential of MOFs to act as biosensors, contrast agents, artificial nanozymes, and multifunctional therapeutic agents in the diagnosis and treatment of VDs from the clinical perspective, highlighting the integration between clinical methods with MOFs is generalized. At the same time, multidisciplinary cooperation from chemistry, physics, biology, and medicine to promote the substantial commercial transformation of MOFs in tackling VDs is called for.

Abstract
Nanozymes, a class of nanomaterials mimicking the function of enzymes, have aroused much attention as the candidate in diverse fields with the arbitrarily tunable features owing to the diversity of crystalline nanostructures, composition, and surface configurations. However, the uncertainty of their active sites and the lower intrinsic deficiencies of nanomaterial-initiated catalysis compared with the natural enzymes promote the pursuing of alternatives by imitating the biological active centers. Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) maximize the atom utilization with the well-defined structure, providing an important bridge to investigate mechanism and the relationship between structure and catalytic activity. They have risen as the new burgeoning alternative to the natural enzyme from in vitro bioanalytical tool to in vivo therapy owing to the flexible atomic engineering structure. Here, focus is mainly on the three parts. First, a detailed overview of single-atom catalyst synthesis strategies including bottom-up and top-down approaches is given. Then, according to the structural feature of single-atom nanocatalysts, the influence factors such as central metal atom, coordination number, heteroatom doping, and the metal-support interaction are discussed and the representative biological applications (including antibacterial/antiviral performance, cancer therapy, and biosensing) are highlighted. In the end, the future perspective and challenge facing are demonstrated.

Abstract
A novel highly active silver single-atom catalyst (AgSAC) was prepared by a microwave-assisted solvothermal method using silver covalent organic frameworks (AgMOF) as precursors. It was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), infrared (IR), and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The experiment found that AgSAC has excellent catalytic performance and can heavily catalyze the nano-reaction of chloroauric acid-malic acid (HAuCl4-H2Mi) to generate gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The produced AuNPs have strong SERS, resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) and surface plasmon resonance absorption (Abs) signals. Aflatoxin B1 aptamer (AptAFB1) can be adsorbed to the surface of AgSAC through electrostatic interaction, to reduce the catalytic activity of AgSAC and the SERS/RRS/Abs signal of the system. When the target molecule (AFB1) was added, it will specifically bind to AptAFB1 and release AgSAC, restoring the catalytic activity of AgSAC, thereby restoring the SERS/RRS/Abs signal of the system. Based on this, a simple and sensitive aptamer sensing analysis platform for trace AFB1 was established, and a reasonable catalytic amplification mechanism of AgSAC was proposed. The SERS method exhibited the highest sensitivity, with a linear range of 0.005-0.225 μg/L and a detection limit of 0.002 μg/L.

Abstract
Silicon luminescence, due to silicon being abundant, non-toxic and harmless, is a topic of pivotal importance in optoelectronics and biological imaging. However, a major challenge in developing high-efficiency silicon light sources is the relatively weak allowable transitions. This study focuses on single atom-doped silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) and theoretically investigates the emission behavior of single atoms within a tetrahedral coordination field. Doping a single atom in Si NCs can result in a ∼102 times improvement at least in the squared transition dipole moment (TDM2), and induce a spectral shift towards near- and mid-infrared wavelengths. These findings offer a strong foundation for designing Si NCs for on-chip optical communication and single photon emitters.

Abstract
The classic luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence (CL) systems suffer from easy self-decomposition of H2O2 at room temperature, hindering the practical applications of the luminol-H2O2 CL system. In this work, unexpectedly, we found that the carbon vacancy-modified Fe-N-C single atom catalysts (VC-Fe-N-C SACs) can directly trigger a luminol solution to generate strong CL emission in the absence of H2O2. The Fe-based SACs were prepared through the conventional pyrolysis of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks. The massive carbon vacancies were readily introduced into Fe-N-C SACs through a tannic acid-etching process. Carbon vacancy significantly enhanced the catalytic activity of Fe-N-C SACs on the CL reaction of luminol-dissolved oxygen. The VC-Fe-N-C SACs performed a 13.4-fold CL enhancement compared with the classic luminol-Fe2+ system. It was found that the introduction of a carbon vacancy could efficiently promote dissolved oxygen to convert to reactive oxygen species. As a proof of concept, the developed CL system was applied to detect alkaline phosphatase with a linear range of 0.005-1 U/L as well as a detection limit of 0.003 U/L. This work demonstrated that VC-Fe-N-C SAC is a highly efficient CL catalyst that can promote the analytic application of the luminol CL system.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 poses a threat to humans. Traditional ELISA is not a sensitive method for the detection of E. coli O157:H7. Here, an efficient method was designed for improving the load capacity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) with streptavidin scaffolded DNA tetrad (SS-DNAt). With more ALP, more ascorbic acid 2-phosphate was catalyzed to ascorbic acid that was used to synthesize fluorescence poly adenine-thymine-templated copper nanoclusters. Based on SS-DNAt, fluorescence ELISA was successfully proposed for improving the sensitivity for detection of E. coli O157:H7 in milk samples. The method showed a linear range of 104 to 106 cfu/mL. The limit of detection of fluorescence ELISA was 3.75 × 103 cfu/mL and 6.16-fold better than that of traditional ELISA. The recovery of the fluorescence ELISA was 86.7 to 93.6% with the coefficient of variation of 5.6 to 10.5% in milk. This method could be used to detect hazardous material in food.

Abstract
Sensitive, on-site and multiple detection of mycotoxins is a vital early-warning tool to minimize food losses and protect human health and the environment. Although paper-based lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) has been extensively applied in mycotoxins monitoring, low-cost, portable, ultrasensitive and quantitative detection is still a formidable challenge. Herein, a series of Fe-N-C single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) were synthesized and systematic characterized. The optimal Fe-N-C SAzyme with highly efficient catalytic performance was successfully used as both label and catalyst in lateral flow immunoassays for mycotoxin detection. By taking advantage of the catalytic amplified system, the qualitative and quantitative detection can be easily and flexibly done via observing the test lines by naked eyes or a smartphone, with the limit of detections (LODs) of 2.8 and 13.9 pg mL-1 for AFB1 and FB1, which were respectively over 700- and 71,000-fold lower than the maximum limit set by the European Union. Besides, underlying catalytic mechanisms and the active sites of the Fe-N-C SAzyme are also investigated by DFT simulation. This work not only provides a promising detection strategy for the application of advanced SAzymes but also offers experimental and theoretical guidelines to understand the active centers of Fe-N-C SAzymes and the catalytic process.

Abstract
Fe and Co single-atom catalysts (SACs) have been widely explored in many fields, while Zn SACs are still in their infancy stage. Herein, we unexpectedly found that atomically dispersed Zn2+ on N-doped carbon material (Zn-N-C) exhibited high catalytic activity on luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence (CL) reaction. The Zn-N-C SACs were readily prepared through simple pyrolyzation of the cheap precursors (dopamine and ZnCl2). The mechanism of Zn SAC-catalyzed CL reaction of luminol-H2O2 was investigated in detail. The activity of Zn SACs originated from the Zn-N sites in the Zn-N-C structure. The monoatomic dispersion makes Zn2+ catalytic performance change from no activity to high activity in luminol-H2O2 CL reaction. This study demonstrated the particularity of the monatomic metal catalyst over the conventional metal ion. This work provides the unprecedented perspective for design of new metal SACs in CL reaction.

Abstract
Point-of-care (POC) detection of herbicides is of great importance due to their impact on the environment and potential risks to human health. Here, we design a single-atomic site catalyst (SASC) with excellent peroxidase-like (POD-like) catalytic activity, which enhances the detection performance of corresponding lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). The iron single-atomic site catalyst (Fe-SASC) is synthesized from hemin-doped ZIF-8, creating active sites that mimic the Fe active center coordination environment of natural enzyme and their functions. Due to its atomically dispersed iron active sites that result in maximum utilization of active metal atoms, the Fe-SASC exhibits superior POD-like activity, which has great potential to replace its natural counterparts. Also, the catalytic mechanism of Fe-SASC is systematically investigated. Utilizing its outstanding catalytic activity, the Fe-SASC is used as label to construct LFIA (Fe-SASC-LFIA) for herbicide detection. The 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is selected as a target here, since it is a commonly used herbicide as well as a biomarker for herbicide exposure evaluation. A linear detection range of 1-250 ng/mL with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.82 ng/mL has been achieved. Meanwhile, excellent specificity and selectivity towards 2,4-D have been obtained. The outstanding detection performance of the Fe-SASC-LFIA has also been demonstrated in the detection of human urine samples, indicating the practicability of this POC detection platform for analyzing the 2,4-D exposure level of a person. We believe this proposed Fe-SASC-LFIA has potential as a portable, rapid, and high-sensitive POC detection strategy for pesticide exposure evaluation.

Abstract
In view of the outstanding catalytic efficiency, single-atom catalysts (SACs) have shown great promise for the construction of sensitive chemiluminescent (CL) platforms. However, the low loading amount of active sites dramatically obstructs the improved catalytic activity of these metal SACs. Benefiting from the exceedingly unique catalytic properties of the metal-metal bonds, atomic clusters may give rise to enhancing the catalytic properties of SACs based on the synergistic effects of dual atomic-scale sites. Inspired by this, atomic Co3N clusters-assisted Co SACs (Co3N@Co SACs) were synthesized through a facile doping method. Through X-ray absorption spectroscopy, the active metal sites in the synergetic dual-site atomic catalysts of Co3N@Co SACs were confirmed to be Co-O4 and Co3-N moieties. Co3N@Co SACs served as a superior co-reactant to remarkably enhance the luminol CL signal by 2155.0 times, which was prominently superior to the boosting effect of the pure Co SACs (98.4 times). The synergetic dual-site atomic catalysts contributed to accelerating the decomposition of H2O2 into singlet oxygen as well as superoxide radical anions to display superb catalytic performances. For a concept employment, Co3N@Co SACs were attempted to utilize as CL probes for establishing a sensitive immunochromatographic assay to quantitate pesticide residues, in which imidacloprid was adopted as the model analyte. The quantitative range of imidacloprid was 0.05-10 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 1.7 pg mL-1 (3σ). Furthermore, the satisfactory recovery values in mock herbal medicine samples demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed Co3N@Co SAC-based CL platform. In the proof-of-concept work, synergetic dual-site atomic catalysts show great perspectives on trace analysis and luminescent biosensing.

Abstract
The ability of some nanoparticles to mimic the activity of certain enzymes paves the way for several attractive biomedical applications which bolster the already impressive arsenal of nanomaterials to combat deadly diseases. A key feature of such 'nanozymes' is the duplication of activities of enzymes or classes of enzymes, such as catalase, superoxide dismutase, oxidase, and peroxidase which are known to modulate the oxidative balance of treated cells for facilitating a particular biological process such as cellular apoptosis. Several nanoparticles that include those of metals, metal oxides/sulfides, metal-organic frameworks, carbon-based materials, etc., have shown the ability to behave as one or more of such enzymes. As compared to natural enzymes, these artificial nanozymes are safer, less expensive, and more stable. Moreover, their catalytic activity can be tuned by changing their size, shape, surface properties, etc. In addition, they can also be engineered to demonstrate additional features, such as photoactivated hyperthermia, or be loaded with active agents for multimodal action. Several researchers have explored the nanozyme-mediated oxidative modulation for therapeutic purposes, often in combination with other diagnostic and/or therapeutic modalities, using a single probe. It has been observed that such synergistic action can effectively by-pass the various defense mechanisms adapted by rogue cells such as hypoxia, evasion of immuno-recognition, drug-rejection, etc. The emerging prospects of using several such nanoparticle platforms for the treatment of bacterial infections/diseases and cancer, along with various related challenges and opportunities, are discussed in this review.

Abstract
All commercial chemiluminescence (CL) assays are conducted with either glow or flash CL of eye-visible waveband from chemical luminophores. Herein, glow and flash, as well as waveband adjustable CL from the same nanoparticle luminophore of thiol-capped CuInS2@ZnS nanocrystals (CIS@ZnS-Thiol), are proposed via extensively exploiting the differed redox nature of CL triggering reagents. Taking thiosalicylic acid (TSA) as the model thiol-capping agent, the electron-injection-initiated charge transfer between CIS@ZnS-TSA and reductant can bring out efficient glow CL while the hole-injection-initiated charge transfer between CIS@ZnS-TSA and oxidant can give off obvious flash CL under optimum conditions. The maximum emission wavelength for CL of CIS@ZnS-TSA is adjustable from 730 nm to 823 nm via employing different triggering agents. Promisingly, the coexistent reductant of N2H4·H2O and oxidant of H2O2 can be employed as dual triggering reagents to trigger eye-visible and highly efficient flash CL from CIS@ZnS-TSA. The maximum emission intensity for flash CL of CIS@ZnS-TSA/N2H4-H2O2 is 101-fold greater than the glow CL of CIS@ZnS-TSA/N2H4 and 22-fold greater than the flash CL of CIS@ZnS-TSA/H2O2, respectively. The flash CL from CIS@ZnS-TSA/N2H4-H2O2 is qualified for highly sensitive and selective CL immunoassay in a commercialized typical procedure with the entire operating process manually terminated within 35 min.

Abstract
A novel [Co(L)(H2O)2] (1) was obtained by hydrothermal method and it exhibited a 1D chain with exposed carboxyl groups, the unique coordination mode made it have unusual physical and chemical stability. Meanwhile, 1 showed peroxidase-like and weak oxidase-like activity. 1 as a peroxidase mimic enzyme had an excellent affinity for the substrates luminol and H2O2. Compared with HRP, 1 had catalytic activity in a wide pH range and showed the best catalytic activity at pH 7.4. Meanwhile, the catalysis process of 1 was reversible and recyclable, and the catalytic activity remained stable after different pH and temperatures and long-time storage. Based on the inhibition of glutathione on luminol-H2O2-MOF 1 chemiluminescence signal, a chemiluminescence method for the determination of glutathione has been proposed with high sensitivity and selectivity and had been applied for detecting glutathione in cell lysate with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) porphyrin-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold great promise in a variety of areas with the merits of large lateral size and abundant functional groups. The chemiluminescent 2D MOF has rarely been reported. In this work, a chemiluminescence (CL) reagent and noble metal nanoparticle dual-functionalized 2D MOF (ABEI/AuNPs/CuTCPP) was developed through the surfactant-assisted and in situ synthetic growth method, exhibiting strong and stable CL property and outstanding peroxidase-mimicking activity. The special nanostructure of ABEI/AuNPs/CuTCPP endowed it with multi-catalytic routes in the CL reaction, which showed a unique pH-regulated and time-resolved CL kinetic curve. A CL mechanism with multi-catalytic centers has been proposed. AuNPs participated in the fast catalytic process and CuTCPP in the slow and strong catalytic reaction. Owing to the impressive structural features and intrinsic enzymatic tandem reaction from natural enzyme to artificial enzyme, a model biosensor was designed for the detection of small metabolic molecules. Employing choline as a model target, the proposed biosensor showed a highly sensitive response to choline in the linear range from 0.3 to 300 μM with a detection limit of 82.6 nM. Significantly, the strategy may be generalized to the monitoring of other biologically important compounds involved in the production of H2O2.

Abstract
Nanozymes are a kind of nanomaterial mimicking enzyme catalytic activity, which has aroused extensive interest in the fields of biosensors, biomedicine, and climate and ecosystems management. However, due to the complexity of structures and composition of nanozymes, atomic scale active centers have been extensively investigated, which helps with in-depth understanding of the nature of the biocatalysis. Single atom nanozymes (SANs) cannot only significantly enhance the activity of nanozymes but also effectively improve the selectivity of nanozymes owing to the characteristics of simple and adjustable coordination environment and have been becoming the brightest star in the nanozyme spectrum. The SANs based sensors have also been widely investigated due to their definite structural features, which can be helpful to study the catalytic mechanism and provide ways to improve catalytic activity. This perspective presents a comprehensive understanding on the advances and challenges on SANs based sensors. The catalytic mechanisms of SANs and then the sensing application from the perspectives of sensing technology and sensor construction are thoroughly analyzed. Finally, the major challenges, potential future research directions, and prospects for further research on SANs based sensors are also proposed.

Abstract
Emission of light by matter can occur through a variety of mechanisms. When it results from an electronically excited state of a species produced by a chemical reaction, it is called chemiluminescence (CL). The phenomenon can take place both in natural and artificial chemical systems and it has been utilized in a variety of applications. In this review, we aim to revisit some of the latest CL applications based on direct and indirect production modes. The characteristics of the chemical reactions and the underpinning CL mechanisms are thoroughly discussed in view of studies from the very recent bibliography. Different methodologies aiming at higher CL efficiencies are summarized and presented in detail, including CL type and scaffolds used in each study. The CL role in the development of efficient therapeutic platforms is also discussed in relation to the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and singlet oxygen (1O2) produced, as final products. Moreover, recent research results from our team are included regarding the behavior of commonly used photosensitizers upon chemical activation under CL conditions. The CL prospects in imaging, biomimetic organic and radical chemistry, and therapeutics are critically presented in respect to the persisting challenges and limitations of the existing strategies to date.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2021; 257:119773. [PMID: 33848952 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2021.119773] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2021] [Revised: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/30/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
It is found that MIL-100(Fe) gels, as a kind of metal-organic gels (MOGs), constitutting of iron (Fe3+) and trimesic acid (H3BTC), has been regarded as the efficient catalyst of luminol chemiluminescence (CL) system without the presence of extra oxidants in the present work. MIL-100(Fe) gels that have possessed mimicking oxidase-like activity can excellently enhanced luminol CL intensity by accelerating the generation of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, with the addition of uric acid (UA), the CL signal has been dramatically inhibited under alkaline condition. Hence, the CL intensity inhibiting ratio (I0/IS) was proportional to the increasing concentration of UA in the rang from 10 nM to 4000 nM with the detection limit of 5.9 nM. This method has been successfully applied for analysis of UA with acceptable recoveries ranging from 97.0% to 107.9% in urine sample. These results indicates that this study open up a novel, sensitive and convenient method to detect UA in biological samples.

Abstract
A novel copper-based metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF) with a large specific surface area and high porosity was synthesized. The Cu-MOF was a good peroxidase-mimicking enzyme and showed a high affinity with hydrogen peroxide in a wide pH range. The catalytic mechanism of Cu-MOF has been studied further based on comparing the characteristic of the Cu-MOF with some isomorphic MOFs. The catalytic activity center of Cu-MOF was determined to be the cupric ion rather than the ligand, which effectively promoted the generation of free radicals and electron transfer in the reaction progress. The high affinity of Cu-MOF to hydrogen peroxide proved it as an ideal catalyst for the chemiluminescence (CL) reaction involving hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, the CL method with high sensitivity could be established for detecting various substrates. A double-enzyme CL glucose biosensing platform was constructed for the determination of serum glucose employing the peroxidase-mimicking properties of Cu-MOF as well as glucose oxidase (GOx).

Abstract
Development of highly sensitive biosensors has received ever-increasing attention over the years. Due to the unique physicochemical properties, the functional nanomaterial-enabled signal amplification strategy has made some great breakthroughs in biosensing. However, the sensitivity and selectivity still need further improvement. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) containing atomically dispersed metal active sites demonstrate distinctive advantages in catalytic activity and selectivity for various catalytic reactions. As a consequence, the SAC-enabled signal amplification strategy holds great promise in biosensors, demonstrating satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity with the assistance of tunable metal-support interactions, coordination environments and geometric/electronic structures of active sites. In this tutorial review, we briefly discuss the structural advantages of SACs. Then, the catalytic mechanism at the atomic scale and signal amplification effects of SACs in the colorimetric, electrochemical, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, and photoelectrochemical biosensing applications are highlighted in detail. Finally, opportunities and challenges to be faced in the future development of the SAC-enabled signal amplification strategy for biosensing are discussed and outlooked.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL) analysis is a trace analytical method that possesses advantages including high sensitivity, wide linear range, easy operation, and simple instruments. With the development of nanotechnology, many nanomaterial (NM)-enhanced CL systems have been established in recent years and applied for the CL detection of metal ions, anions, small molecules, tumor markers, sequence-specific DNA, and RNA. This review summarizes the research progress of the nanomaterial-enhanced CL systems the past five years. These CL reactions include luminol, peroxyoxalate, lucigenin, ultraweak CL reactions, and so on. The CL mechanisms of the nanomaterial-enhanced CL systems are discussed in the first section. Nanomaterials take part in the CL reactions as the catalyst, CL emitter, energy acceptor, and reductant. Their applications are summarized in the second section. Finally, the challenges and opportunities are discussed.

Abstract
Nanozymes have been widely used as highly active and stable arterial enzymes due to their controllable electronic transfer and unique catalytic reaction route. However, the development of nanozymes is hindered by their ambiguous structure, insufficient activity and inadequate substrate selectivity. In comparison, single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) hold superior catalytic activity 10-100 times higher than conventional nanozymes by maximizing the utilization of metal atom dispersion, and exhibit versatile catalytic selectivity through precisely adjusting the atom spatial configuration. In this review, we highlight several well-defined SAzymes, and discuss their accurate atom configuration, catalytic mechanisms, enzyme-like activity, and applications in cancer treatment, brain disease, and wound healing. It is of great significance to understand the advantages and properties of SAzymes for further medical development.
