[PMID: 38876517 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342801] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most of the investigations on distinct crystal structures of catalysts are individually focused on the difference of surface functional groups or adsorption properties, but rarely explore the changes of active sites to affect the electrocatalytic performance. Catalysts with diverse crystal structures had been applied to modified electrodes in different electrocatalytic reactions. However, there is currently a lack of an essential understanding for the role of real active sites in catalysts with crystalline structures in electroanalysis, which is crucial for designing highly sensitive sensing interfaces. RESULTS Herein, cobalt molybdate with divergent crystal structures (α-CoMoO4 and β-CoMoO4) were synthesized by adjusting the calcination temperature, indicating that α-CoMoO4 (800 °C) (60.00 μA μM-1) had the highest catalytic ability than β-CoMoO4 (700 °C) (38.68 μA μM-1) and α-CoMoO4 (900 °C) (29.55 μA μM-1) for the catalysis of Pb(II). It was proved that the proportion of Co(II) and Mo(IV) as electron-rich sites in α-CoMoO4 (800 °C) were higher than β-CoMoO4 (700 °C) and α-CoMoO4 (900 °C), possessing more electrons to participate in the valence cycles of Co(II)/Co(III) and Mo(IV)/Mo(VI) to boost the catalytic reduction of Pb(II). Specifically, Co(II) transferred a part of electrons to Mo(VI), promoting the formation of Mo(IV). Co(II) and Mo(IV), as the electron-rich sites, providing electrons to Pb(II), further accelerating the conversion of Pb(II) into Pb(0). SIGNIFICANCE In the process of detecting Pb(II), the CoMoO4 structures under different temperatures have distinct content of electron-rich sites Co(II) and Mo(IV). α-CoMoO4 (800 °C), with the highest content are benefited to detect Pb(II). This work is conducive to understanding the effect of the changes of active sites resulting from crystal transformation on the electrocatalytic performance, and provides a way to construct sensitive electrochemical interfaces of distinct active sites.

Abstract
Low-cost, reliable, and efficient biosensors are crucial in detecting residual heavy metal ions (HMIs) in food products. At present, based on distance-induced localized surface plasmon resonance of noble metal nanoparticles, enzyme-mimetic reaction of nanozymes, and chelation reaction of metal chelators, the constructed optical sensors have attracted wide attention in HMIs detection. Besides, based on the enrichment and signal amplification strategy of nanomaterials on HMIs and the construction of electrochemical aptamer sensing platforms, the developed electrochemical biosensors have overcome the plague of low sensitivity, poor selectivity, and the inability of multiplexed detection in the optical strategy. Moreover, along with an in-depth discussion of these different types of biosensors, a detailed overview of the design and application of innovative devices based on these sensing principles was provided, including microfluidic systems, hydrogel-based platforms, and test strip technologies. Finally, the challenges that hinder commercial application have also been mentioned. Overall, this review aims to establish a theoretical foundation for developing accurate and reliable sensing technologies and devices for HMIs, thereby promoting the widespread application of biosensors in the detection of HMIs in food.

Abstract
In this study, a dual-mode colorimetric/CL nanosensor was developed for glyphosate detection based on the specific inhibition of Fe3O4@Cu peroxidase-like activity. Synthesized Fe3O4@Cu exhibited high levels of peroxidase-like activity that triggered the oxidation of luminol/3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl benzidine dihydrochloride (TMB) to excited-state 3-aminophthalic acid/blue oxTMB, thereby delivering a CL signal/visible colorimetric signal, however, the presence of glyphosate inhibited this activity, resulting in a decrease in signal strength. In-depth investigation revealed that this inhibitory mechanism occurs via two pathways: one in which glyphosate chelates with Fe(III)/Cu(II) and occupy the catalytical active sites of Fe3O4@Cu, thereby decreasing the generation of OH, and another in which glyphosate competes with TMB to consume generated OH, thus reducing the oxidation of TMB. This mechanism formed the basis of our novel dual-mode colorimetric/CL glyphosate nanosensor, which achieved limits of detection (LODs) of 0.086 µg/mL and 0.019 µg/mL in tests, thus demonstrating its significant potential for on-site glyphosate monitoring.

Pb2+ is commonly found in industrial waste and fertilizers, contaminating water sources and subsequently entering the human body, causing various adverse health conditions. Unlike being expelled, Pb2+ accumulates within the body, posing potential health risks. The harmful impact of presence of Pb2+ in water have prompted researchers to diligently work toward maintaining water quality. Recognizing the importance of Pb2+, this review article makes a sincere and effective effort to address the issues associated with Pb2+. This overview article gives insights into various sensing approaches to detect Pb2+ in water using different sensing materials, including 2-dimensional materials, thiols, quantum dots, and polymers. Herein, different sensing approaches such as electrochemical, optical, field effect transistor-based, micro-electromechanical system-based, and chemi resistive are thoroughly explained. Field effect transistor-based and chemiresistive work on similar principles and are compared on the basis of their fabrication processes and sensing capabilities. In conclusion, future directions for chemiresistive sensors in Pb2+ detection are proposed, emphasizing their simplicity, portability, straightforward functionality, and ease of fabrication. Notably, it sheds light on various thiol and ligand compounds and coupling strategies utilized in Pb2+ detection. This comprehensive study is expected to benefit individuals engaged in Pb2+ detection.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 915:170025. [PMID: 38219997 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
Pb(II) is a prevalent heavy metal ion classified as a 2B carcinogen. Excessive intake of Pb(II) in the human body can damage the central nervous system, kidneys, liver, and immune system, leading to permanent brain damage, anemia, and cancer. Colorimetry can be applied to rapidly determine Pb(II) residues, but there are still many challenges in the accuracy and sensitivity of detection. Based on the inhibitory impact of Pb(II) on the oxidase-like activity of octahedral silver oxide (Ag2O), a colorimetric sensor with smartphone-assisted analysis for the Pb(II) detection was first developed. Herein, it has been found that Pb(II) can adsorb onto the surface of octahedral Ag2O, hindering the production of O2- in the reaction system. This ultimately results in the suppression of oxidase-like activity, leading to a lighter purple appearance of the colorimetric reaction solution. The sensor exhibits a high degree of sensitivity and a limit of detection (LOD) for Pb(II) was calculated as 2.2 μg L-1. Hence, the developed colorimetric sensor with high sensitivity, excellent specificity, and high tolerance to sodium ions is hopeful to have practical applications in Pb(II) detection in environmental water samples. Moreover, the sensor will provide a novel strategy for heavy metal ion detection and other substances.

Abstract
As a promising cost-effective nanozyme, MoS2 nanosheets (NSs) have been considered as a good candidate for the enzyme-like catalysis. However, their catalytic activity is still restricted by the insufficient active sites and poor conductivity, and thus, the comprehensive performances are still unsatisfactory. To address these issues, herein, we design and fabricate an intelligent tubular nanostructure of hierarchical hollow nanotubes, which are assembled by NiSx/MoS2 NSs encapsulated into N-doped carbon microtubes (NiSx/MoS2@NCMTs). The N-doped carbon microtubes (NCMTs) serve as a conductive skeleton, integrating with NiSx/MoS2 NSs and ensuring their well-distribution, thereby maximally exposing more active sites. Additionally, the tube-like structure is favorable for increasing the mass transfusion to ensure their excellent catalytic performance. Profiting from their component and structural advantages, the obtained NiSx/MoS2@NCMTs exhibit a surprisingly enhanced enzyme-like activity. Based on these, a facile colorimetric sensing platform to detect H2O2 and GSH has been developed. This proposed approach can be expected to synthesize a series of tubular heterostructured MoS2-based composites, which will be widely applied in catalysis, energy storage, disease diagnosis, etc.

Abstract
Being emerged as alternatives to natural enzymes, nanozymes have recently drawn much attention in sensing. Herein, the first multicomponent transition metal dicalchogenide (TMD)-based nanozyme (MCFS/rGO) was synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method and characterized. This peroxidase-mimic nanozyme follows the typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics, showing a higher affinity for H2O2 substrate (Km = 9 μM) compared to that of natural peroxidase (Km = 3700 μM). The remarkable potential of the MCFS/rGO nanozyme to detect H2O2 provided us with a great opportunity to design some simple and fast colorimetric sensing systems. Coupling the efficient peroxidase-mimicking activity of the nanozyme with the H2O2 production capacity of white blood cells (WBCs) leads to the development of a novel, simple, rapid, and efficient colorimetric method to distinguish leukocytosis-related patients from healthy people by the naked eye. This pioneering diagnostic technique can also be utilized to quantitatively measure the WBC count. Moreover, we coupled the mentioned nanozyme-based system with the activity of glucose oxidase enzyme available in different types of honey samples, an innovative mechanism proved to be an effective quality indicator of the samples. Last but not least, the MCFS/rGO nanozyme is also able to determine the quantity of some biologically significant analytes, including glutathione (GSH), ascorbic acid (AA), and mercury ions (Hg2+), of which the limit of detection (LOD) was 9.3 nM, 22.5 nM, and 0.32 μM, respectively. Our results, however, demonstrated the superior performance of the MCFS/rGO nanozyme to determine the first two mentioned bioanalytes compared with other TMDs. Overall, this novel nanozyme-based sensor system can be considered a suitable candidate for developing multipurpose biosensors for medical and biochemical applications.

[PMID: 36673383 PMCID: PMC9858192 DOI: 10.3390/foods12020291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Revised: 12/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Due to its unique biological composition, aquatic products, especially fish, are extremely perishable compared to other muscle products. Herein, we proposed an artificial nanozyme-based colorimetric detection of hypoxanthine (Hx), the indicator of fish freshness, in a minute-time scale without the assistance of a natural enzyme (hypoxanthine oxidase). The principle is based on the interaction between Hx and polyvinylpyrrolidone-modified platinum cubic nanomaterials (PVP-PtNC), in which the catalytic active sites of PVP-PtNC's surface were blocked by Hx. This causes the downregulation of PVP-PtNC's catalytic ability and weakened its ability to catalyze the oxidization of 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by H2O2. Accordingly, the decrease in the UV-vis absorption and the weakening of the colorimetric reaction color is proportional to the Hx concentration. On this basis, a target-triggered colorimetric method for detecting Hx is developed for fish freshness monitoring with a fast detection speed, low cost, high accuracy, and simplified operation. Experiments reveal that the correlation response of Hx is from 0.5 μM to 10 mM with a limit of detection of 0.16 μM. In particular, the Hx detected from real fish indicates that the method possesses a promising potential for practical application. All of these features are expected to promote the development of online detection tools for food safety monitoring.

Abstract
Nanozymes are defined as nanomaterials exhibiting enzyme-like properties, and they possess both catalytic functions and nanomaterial's unique physicochemical characteristics. Due to the excellent stability and improved catalytic activity in comparison to natural enzymes, nanozymes have established a wide base for applications in environmental pollutants monitoring and remediation. Nanozymes have been applied in the detection of heavy metal ions, molecules, and organic compounds, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Additionally, within the natural environment, nanozymes can be employed for the degradation of organic and persistent pollutants such as antibiotics, phenols, and textile dyes. Further, the potential sphere of applications for nanozymes traverses from indoor air purification to anti-biofouling agents, and even they show promise in combatting pathogenic bacteria. However, nanozymes may have inherent toxicity, which can restrict their widespread utility. Thus, it is important to evaluate and monitor the interaction and transformation of nanozymes towards biosphere damage when employed within the natural environment in a cradle-to-grave manner, to assure their utmost safety. In this context, various studies have concluded that the green synthesis of nanozymes can efficiently overcome the toxicity limitations in real life applications, and nanozymes can be well utilized in the sensing and degradation of several toxic pollutants including metal ions, pesticides, and chemical warfare agents. In this seminal review, we have explored the great potential of nanozymes, whilst addressing a range of concerns, which have often been overlooked and currently restrict widespread applications and commercialization of nanozymes.

Abstract
The control of pesticide residues in food is of increasing importance nowadays due to the over-use and misapplication of herbicides in agricultural production. However, the current colorimetric method for rapid detection of glyphosate still faces many challenges like the low sensitivity and stability. Herein, a simple and ultrasensitive liquid colorimetric chemosensor for glyphosate detection was successfully constructed. Glyphosate pesticide can interact with metallic oxidelike porous Co3O4 nanodisc, and inhibit its inherent peroxidase-mimicking activity, making the colour of the solution change from blue to light blue or even colourless. The colour variation of the colorimetric chemosensor enables us to easily distinguish in less than 20 min even by the naked eye whether glyphosate exceeds the allowable level. The limit of detection (LOD) of the chemosensor for glyphosate was calculated as low as 2.37 μg·L-1, and the chemosensor displays excellent selectivity against other competitive pesticides and metal ions. Further studies have also validated the applicability of the colorimetric chemosensor in actual samples like tomato, cucumber and cabbage, indicating that the proposed strategy may have promising application prospects for detecting glyphosate residues in agricultural products.

Abstract
In this work, we developed an aptamer-based optical assay for the analysis of Pb2+, a hazardous heavy metal that may be present in the food chain and harmful to human health. An aptamer targeted against Pb2+ was immobilized onto the microplate as the capture probe. SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and used as carriers of the signaling horseradish peroxidase (HRP) to achieve amplification of the optical signal. Complementary DNA (cDNA) of the aptamer was also linked to the above mentioned SiO2 nanoparticle (NPs) as the signal probe. The aptamers were found to be able to capture Pb2+, and the unbound aptamers were subsequently hybridized with cDNA-HRP-SiO2 conjugates. As a result, the addition of TMB-H2O2 promoted the formation of blue products in the catalytic system. The assay adopting SiO2 NPs as an enhancer resulted in higher sensitivity with an LOD of 2.5 nM compared to normal procedures. The feasibility of the aptamer-based colorimetric assay was verified by successful detection of Pb2+ in water samples with recoveries in the range of 97.4-103.52%.

Abstract
Nanozymes, a type of nanomaterial with enzyme-like properties, are a promising alternative to natural enzymes. In particular, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs, with the general formula MX2, where M represents a transition metal and X is a chalcogen element)-based nanozymes have demonstrated exceptional potential in the healthcare and diagnostic sectors. TMDCs have different enzymatic properties due to their unique nano-architecture, high surface area, and semiconducting properties with tunable band gaps. Furthermore, the compatibility of TMDCs with various chemical or physical modification strategies provide a simple and scalable way to engineer and control their enzymatic activity. Here, we discuss recent advances made with TMDC-based nanozymes for biosensing and therapeutic applications. We also discuss their synthesis strategies, various enzymatic properties, current challenges, and the outlook for future developments in this field.

Abstract
In this study, tannic acid-modified gold nanoparticles were found to have superior nanozyme activity and catalyze the oxidation reaction of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Enhancing the catalytic activity of the nanozyme by Pb2+ ions caused by selectively binding metal ions by the tannic acid-capped surface of gold nanoparticles makes them an ideal colorimetric probe for Pb2+. The parameters of the reaction, including pH, incubation time, and concentration of components, were optimized to reach maximal sensitivity of Pb2+ detection. The absorption change is directly proportional to the Pb2+ concentration and allows the determination of Pb2+ ions within 10 min. The colorimetric sensor is characterized by a wide linear range from 25 to 500 ng×mL−1 with a low limit of detection of 11.3 ng×mL−1. The highly sensitive and selective Pb2+ detection in tap, drinking, and spring water revealed the feasibility and applicability of the developed colorimetric sensor.

Abstract
The current method for rapid and ultrasensitive detection of multiple heavy metals in environmental water still face challenge. Herein, the porous Co3O4 nanodisks with robust peroxidase-mimicking activity were prepared, and its catalytic activity can be significantly inhibited by the heavy metals like Cd(II), Hg(II), Pb(II) and As, which makes us to establish an ultrasensitive and rapid colorimetric sensor for the detection of multiple heavy metals. Further investigation reveals the anticompetitive inhibition effect of heavy metals on peroxidase-mimicking activity. The colorimetric sensor displays excellent sensitivity and selectivity, and the limits of detection (LOD) for Cd(II), Hg(II), Pb(II) and As are 0.085 μg·L-1, 0.19 μg·L-1, 0.2 μg·L-1 and 0.156 μg·L-1, respectively. Notably, the absorbance variation will be greater than 0.5 as the concentration of heavy metals exceeds 5 μg·L-1, which can be clearly discriminated by the naked eyes. Moreover, the average recovery range of heavy metals in actual water samples is from 86.9% to 98.3%. The above results indicate that the proposed sensor exhibits excellent practical applicability for the rapid and ultrasensitive detection of multiple harmful heavy metals in several environmental water samples, which has potential bright application in protecting the environment and human health.

Abstract
Since the discovery of horseradish peroxidase-like activity of magnetite nanoparticles in 2007, many researchers have investigated different types of nanoparticles that show enzyme-like activities, namely, nanozymes. Nanozymes possess high efficiency, stability, and low production costs compared to natural enzymes.

Food Chem 2021; 366:130560. [PMID: 34284183 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.130560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2021] [Revised: 04/27/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
The colorimetric method can determine the initial results even by the naked eyes, but its main challenge for antibiotics detection in food at present is the relatively low sensitivity. Herein, an ultrasensitive colorimetric biosensor based on G-quadruplex DNAzyme was firstly proposed for the rapid detection of trace tetracycline antibiotics like tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline. DNAzyme composed of hemin and G-quadruplex has peroxidase-like activity, and tetracyclines can combine with hemin to form a stable complex and reduce catalytic activity, making the color of solution changes from yellow to green. The limits of detection (LOD) of the proposed colorimetric biosensor for tetracyclines is determined as low as 3.1 nM, which is lower than most of the other colorimetric methods for antibiotics detection. Moreover, the average recovery range of tetracyclines in actual samples is from 89% to 99%, indicating that such strategy may has bright application prospects for tetracyclines detection in foods.

Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1167:338586. [PMID: 34049633 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.338586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Although many Pb2+-selective optodes have been developed so far, methods using optical sensor membranes have not become widespread in environmental analytical practice. In order to create a bulk optode sensor, which can overcome all of the main drawbacks in the application of conventional optode membranes, - i.e., pH-dependence, long response time and the leakage of the ionic components - unusually thick PVC membrane was developed, embedded in microtiter plates and operated on a novel concept. This is the first reported work, which applies a plate-format optode as well as a direct optode-type sensing membrane for determination of Pb2+. We reported here also the first example for the application of an ionic component-free bulk optode membrane to avoid the membrane leakage, improve the regenerability and extend the lifetime of the membrane. The reported sensor has a LOD above 4.0 × 10-7 M (∼83 μg L-1), thus it is unsuitable for the effective monitoring of drinking waters, but considered to be a promising method for monitoring contamination episodes. On the other hand, the widest pH-independent working range of 4.3 < pH < 7.0 among bulk optodes reported in the literature was realized and an unprecedentedly fast response time of <10 s was achieved. The effectiveness of the applied method was investigated by measuring Pb2+-spiked multicomponent aqueous solutions as simulated environmental or wastewater samples containing near equimolar amounts of Ag+, Ca2+, Co2+, Cu2+, K+, Mg2+, Na+ and Zn2+ as acetate salts. In the presence of these potential competing ions with a concentration not greater than the typical ionic strength of surface freshwaters (∼10-3 M) the reported sensor proved to be appropriate for the selective detection of Pb2+ without any preparation of the samples (e.g., preconcentration, buffering, addition of excipients, etc.) with a required sample volume of only 100 μL. An outstanding analytical performance could be achieved within an average time of less, than 5 s/sample. The reported fluorescent probe is considered to be a promising method for replacing atomic absorption spectroscopy- (AAS), anodic stripping voltammetry- (ASV) or inductively coupled plasma- (ICP) based techniques as well as conventional ion-selective bulk membranes in high-throughput preliminary environmental monitoring of Pb2+, as it provides a cheap and unprecedentedly fast qualitative analysis of contaminated surface and wastewaters.

Abstract
A novel liquid colorimetric sensor based on deep eutectic solvent (DES) was developed for the preconcentration and detection of Pb2+ in fruit juice, milk and cereal samples. The colorimetric probe was simply fabricated by adding dithizone (DZ) into DES, prepared from choline chloride and phenol. Pb2+ was formed complex with DZ in the probe, providing hydrophobic complex of [Pb-DZ] which was simultaneously extracted into DES and the color was changed from light orange to carmine red. The enriched [Pb-DZ] in DES was detected using spectrophotometer at 520 nm and naked-eyes. In addition, a smartphone in combination with an Image J program was used as an alternative detection device. Under optimal conditions, the enrichment factor was 92 with LOD of 2.1 µg L-1 and the linear range was 0.007-0.075 mg L-1. The proposed liquid colorimetric sensor was successfully applied for Pb2+ detection in various food samples and the results were in good agreement with those obtained by FAAS. The advantages of this method are simple, rapid, environmental friendly and low cost.

Abstract
Although the colorimetric methods can easily meet the demands of point-of-care and ease-of-use for antibiotic detection, they still face many challenges in the accuracy and stability of assay. Herein, a facile and stable colorimetric aptasensor is first developed for kanamycin residue detection based on the aptamer-enhanced peroxidase-mimicking activity of layered WS2 nanosheets. The investigation confirmed that aptamer sequences can improve the affinity of nanosheets to the chromogenic substrate 3,3'',5,5''-tetramethylbenzidine, resulting in a significant increase of the peroxidase-mimicking activity. Under the optimal conditions, the limit of detection of the proposed colorimetric aptasensor for kanamycin was determined to be as low as 0.6 μM, and such an aptasensor displays excellent selectivity against other competitive antibiotics. Moreover, further studies have verified the applicability of the established colorimetric aptasensor in several actual samples, indicating that the aptasensor may have bright application prospects for kanamycin detection in livestock husbandry and agriculture samples.

Abstract
Nanozymes are advanced nanomaterials which mimic natural enzymes by exhibiting enzyme-like properties. As nanozymes offer better structural stability over their respective natural enzymes, they are ideal candidates for real-time and/or remote environmental pollutant monitoring and remediation. In this review, we classify nanozymes into four types depending on their enzyme-mimicking behaviour (active metal centre mimic, functional mimic, nanocomposite or 3D structural mimic) and offer mechanistic insights into the nature of their catalytic activity. Following this, we discuss the current environmental translation of nanozymes into a powerful sensing or remediation tool through inventive nano-architectural design of nanozymes and their transduction methodologies. Here, we focus on recent developments in nanozymes for the detection of heavy metal ions, pesticides and other organic pollutants, emphasising optical methods and a few electrochemical techniques. Strategies to remediate persistent organic pollutants such as pesticides, phenols, antibiotics and textile dyes are included. We conclude with a discussion on the practical deployment of these nanozymes in terms of their effectiveness, reusability, real-time in-field application, commercial production and regulatory considerations.

Abstract
Large scale mining, manufacturing industries, exploitation of underground water, depletion of groundwater level, and uncontrolled discharge of industrial wastes have caused severe heavy metal ion pollution to the environment throughout the world. Therefore, the rapid detection of such toxic metal ions is inevitable. However, conventional methods require sophisticated instruments and skilled manpower and are difficult to operate in on-field conditions. Recently, metal nanozyme-based assays have been found to have the potential as an alternative to conventional methods due to their portability, simplicity, and high sensitivity to detect metal ion concentration to as low as parts per trillion (ppt). Metal nanozyme-based systems for heavy metal ions enable rapid and cheap screening on the spot with a very simple instrument such as a UV-vis absorption spectrophotometer and therefore, are convenient for use in field operations, especially in remote parts of the world. The sensing mechanism of a nanozyme-based sensor is highly dependent on its surface properties and specific interactions with particular metal ion species. Such method often encounters selectivity issues, unlike natural enzyme-based assays. Therefore, in this review, we mainly focus our discussion on different types of target recognition and inhibition/enhancement mechanisms, and their responses toward the catalytic activity in the sensing of target metal ions, design strategies, challenges, and future perspectives.

Abstract
Recently, remarkable progress has been made in nanozyme research due to the rapid development of nanomaterials. Two-dimensional nanomaterials such as metal nanosheets, graphene-based materials, transition metal oxides/dichalcogenides, etc., provide enhanced physical and chemical functionality owing to their ultrathin structures, high surface-to-volume ratios, and surface charges. They have also been found to have high catalytic activities in terms of natural enzymes such as peroxidase, oxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase. This review provides an overview of the recent progress of nanozymes based on two-dimensional nanomaterials, with an emphasis on their synthetic strategies, hybridization, catalytic properties, and biomedical applications. Finally, the future challenges and prospects for this research are discussed.
