Abstract
"Signal-off" nanozyme sensing platforms are usually employed to detect analytes (e.g., ascorbic acid (AA) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)), which are mostly based on oxidase (OXD) nanozymes. However, their drawbacks, like dissolved oxygen-dependent catalysis capability, relatively low enzyme activity, limited amount, and kind, may not favor sensing platforms' optimization. Meanwhile, with the need for sustainable development, a reusable "signal-off" sensing platform is essential for cutting down the cost of the assay, but it is rarely developed in previous studies. Magnetic peroxidase (POD) nanozymes potentially make up the deficiencies and become reusable and better "signal-off" sensing platforms. As a proof of concept, we first construct Fe3O4@polydopamine-supported Pt/Ru alloy nanoparticles (IOP@Pt/Ru) without stabilizers. IOP@Pt/Ru shows high POD activity with Vmax of 83.24 × 10-8 M·s-1 for 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidation. Meanwhile, its oxidation rate for TMB is slower than the reduction of oxidized TMB by reducers, favorable for a more significant detection signal. On the other hand, IOP@Pt/Ru possesses great magnet-responsive capability, making itself be recycled and reused for at least 15-round catalysis. When applying IOP@Pt/Ru for AA (ALP) detection, it performs better detectable adaptability, with a linear range of 0.01-0.2 mM (0.1-100 U/L) and a limit of detection of 0.01 mM (0.05 U/L), superior to most of OXD nanozyme-based ALP sensing platform. Finally, IOP@Pt/Ru's reusable assay was demonstrated in real blood samples for ALP assay, which has never been explored in previous studies. Overall, this study develops a reusable "signal-off" nanozyme sensing platform with superior assay capabilities than traditional OXD nanozymes, paves a new way to optimize nanozyme-based "signal-off" sensing platforms, and provides an idea for constructing inexpensive and sustainable sensing platforms.

Abstract
Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) is vital for food quality evaluation. The emergence of various nanozymes with TMB as substrate offered a new avenue for TAC detection due to simple operation and fast response, but a long-standing challenge is its low activity at physiological pH, which may account for the discrepancy between the measured TAC and the actual antioxidant capacity in vivo. Herein, Au doping was explored to break the pH limitation of g-C3N4 nanosheets (CNNS) photozyme. The catalytic activities of Au@CNNS at pH 4.0 and 7.4 were 14.9- and 6.2-fold higher than that of CNNS at pH 4. The neutral pH photozymatic activity (photosensitized oxidation of TMB, oxidase mimic) of Au@CNNS was explored for sensitivity TAC detection (LOD: 1.0 μM TE), which featured more convenient operations and higher sensitivity over the DPPH assay. The proposed Au@CNNS-based photozymatic colorimetric method was explored for accurate detection of TAC in drinks and juices.

Abstract
The regular and on-site monitoring of ions in drinking water is essential for safeguarding public health, ensuring high water quality, and preserving the ecological balance of aquatic ecosystems. Thus, developing a portable analytical device for the rapid, cost-effective, and visual on-site detection of multiple environmental pollutants is notably significant. In the present work, a novel ratiometric microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μPAD) was designed and developed for the simultaneous detection of Fe3+ and Cu2+ ions in water samples taking advantages from built-in masking zone. The μPAD was functionalized with a greenish-yellow fluorescent Zn-based metal-organic framework@tetracycline (FMOF-5@TC) nanocomposite, and the ratiometric design was based on the change in emission color from greenish yellow (FMOF-5@TC) to blue (FMOF-5). The μPAD consisted of one sample zone linked to two detection zones via two channels: the first channel was for the detection of both ions, while the second was intended for detecting only Cu2+ ions and comprised a built-in masking zone to remove Fe3+ ions prior to reaching the detection zone. The corresponding color changes were recorded with the aid of a smartphone and RGB calculations. The linear ranges were 0.1-80 μM for Cu2+ and 0.2-160 μM for Fe3+, with limits of detection of 0.027 and 0.019 μM, respectively. The simple μPAD design enabled the simultaneous detection of Cu2+ and Fe3+ ions in drinking water samples with excellent accuracy and precision, with spike recoveries of 81.28-96.36% and 83.01-102.33% for Cu2+ and Fe3+, respectively.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e27757. [PMID: 38533034 PMCID: PMC10963233 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e27757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with certain types of cancer, tumor stages, and responses to treatment, thus efficient methods are required to identify them quickly and accurately. Abnormal expression of microRNA-191 (miR-191) has been linked to particular cancers and several other health conditions, such as diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. In this study, a new dual-biosensor based on the zirconium and preasodium-based metal-organic framework (Zr/Pr MOF) was developed for the rapid, ultrasensitive, and selective detection of miRNA-191. The synthesized Zr/Pr MOF exhibited peroxidase-like activity and fluorescence properties. Our dual method involves monitoring the fluorescence and peroxidase activity of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the presence of miRNAs. The Zr/Pr MOF can catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to oxidize the chromogenic substrate 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce blue oxidized TMB (oxTMB), which exhibits ultraviolet absorption at 660 nm. However, the addition of a label-free miRNA-191 probe caused a significant change in fluorescence intensity and absorbance, indicating the binding of single-stranded miRNAs to the MOF through van der Waals interactions and π-π stacking. The presence of the target miRNA-191 caused the probe to be released from the surface of the MOF owing to hybridization, which increased the peroxidase-like activity of Zr/Pr-MOF. Both response signals showed acceptable linear relationship and low detection limits. Fluorescence and colorimetry have an LOD of 0.69 and 8.62 pM, respectively. This study demonstrates the reliability and sensitivity of miRNA identification in human serum samples.

Abstract
In this research, a sensitive fluorometric and colorimetric dual-mode sensing platform based on nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (NCDs) and magnetic Fe nanoparticles with peroxidase-like activity (Fe nanozymes, Fe NZs) was established, and was further applied for the detection of α-glucosidase (α-glu) and its inhibitors. The ⋅OH that produced by H2O2 catalyzed by Fe NZs can oxidize the colorless diammonium 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) to green oxABTS, and a noticeable absorption peak at 417 nm appeared. Simultaneously, oxABTS can quench the fluorescence of NCDs at 402 nm via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AAG) can be decomposed by α-glu to glucose and ascorbic acid (AA), AA can prevent the oxidation of ABTS, resulting in the absorption at 417 nm decreased. Moreover, the quenching effect of oxABTS on NCDs is weakened, and the fluorescence at 402 nm is restored. Therefore, based on the change of absorption at 417 nm and fluorescence at 402 nm, the fluorometric and colorimetric dual-mode sensing method can be used for the determination of acarbose and voglibose that are the inhibitors of α-glu.

Abstract
A nanozyme is a nanoscale material having enzyme-like properties. It exhibits several superior properties, including low preparation cost, robust catalytic activity, and long-term storage at ambient temperatures. Moreover, high stability enables repetitive use in multiple catalytic reactions. Hence, it is considered a potential replacement for natural enzymes. Enormous research interest in nanozymes in the past two decades has made it imperative to look for better enzyme-mimicking materials for biomedical applications. Given this, research on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a potential nanozyme material has gained momentum. MOFs are advanced hybrid materials made of inorganic metal ions and organic ligands. Their distinct composition, adaptable pore size, structural diversity, and ease in the tunability of physicochemical properties enable MOFs to mimic enzyme-like activities and act as promising nanozyme candidates. This review aims to discuss recent advances in the development of MOF-based nanozymes (MOF-NZs) and highlight their applications in the field of biomedicine. Firstly, different enzyme-mimetic activities exhibited by MOFs are discussed, and insights are given into various strategies to achieve them. Modification and functionalization strategies are deliberated to obtain MOF-NZs with enhanced catalytic activity. Subsequently, applications of MOF-NZs in the biosensing and therapeutics domain are discussed. Finally, the review is concluded by giving insights into the challenges encountered with MOF-NZs and possible directions to overcome them in the future. With this review, we aim to encourage consolidated efforts across enzyme engineering, nanotechnology, materials science, and biomedicine disciplines to inspire exciting innovations in this emerging yet promising field.

Abstract
It is urgently needed to develop high-performance method for tetracycline (TC) analysis to meet the growing concerns about food safety. Herein, a MOF of Ni2+-2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (Ni-HHTP) with peroxidase activity has been prepared and coated on a screen printing electrode, followed by non-covalent adsorption of tetracycline aptamer (TC-Apt) through the π-stacking. The spectroscopic and electrochemical assays show that TC-Apt can effectively enhance the nanozyme activity of Ni-HHTP using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)/H2O2 as the probe. Upon binding with TC, the configuration of TC-Apt is changed and desorbs from the Ni-HHTP, resulting in the decrease of the nanozyme activity of aptasensor. Based on this principle, the target TC can be analyzed in concentrations ranging from 10 pM to 1.0 μM, with a detection limit of 1.9 pM. The aptsensor is also applicable for TC analysis in fresh Ctenopharyngodon idella meat and milk, which provides a new approach for TC residue monitoring in food.

Abstract
An ultra-efficient biocatalytic peroxidase-like Au-based single-atom nanozyme (Au-SAzymes) has been synthesized from isolated Au atoms on black nitrogen doped carbon (Au-N-C) using a simple complexation-adsorption-pyrolysis method. The atomic structure of AuN4 centers in black carbon was revealed by combined high-resolution transmission electron microscopy/high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy. The Au-SAzymes showed a remarkable peroxidase activity with 1.7 nM as Michaelis-Menten constant, higher than most previously reported SAzyme activity. Density functional theory and Monte Carlo calculations revealed the adsorption of H2O2 on AuN4 with formation of OH* and O*. Molecular recognition was greatly enhanced via label-free integration of thiol-terminal aptamers on the surface of single Au atoms (Aptamer/Au-SAzyme) to design off-on ultrasensitive aptananozyme-based sensor for detecting thrombin and CRP with 550 pM and 500 pg mL-1 limits of detection, respectively. The Aptamer/Au-SAzyme showed satisfactory accuracy and precision when applied to the serum and plasma of COVID-19 patients. Due to the maximum Au atom utilization, approximately 3636 samples can be run per 1 mg of gold, highlighting the commercialization potential of the developed Aptamer/Au-SAzyme approach.

Abstract
Immunoassays based on antibodies as recognizing elements and enzymes as signal-generating modules are extensively used now in clinical lab diagnostics, food, and environmental analyses. However, the application of natural enzymes and antibodies has some drawbacks, such as relatively high manufacturing costs, thermal instability, and lot-to-lot variations that lower the reproducibility of results. Oligonucleotide aptamers are able to specifically bind their targets with high affinity and selectivity, so they represent a prospective alternative to protein antibodies for analyte recognition. Their main advantages include thermal stability and long shelf life, cost-efficient chemical synthesis, and negligible batch-to-batch variations. At the same time, a wide variety of non-protein peroxidase mimics are now available that show strong potential to replace protein enzymes. Here, we review and analyze non-protein biosensors that represent a nexus of these two concepts: aptamer-based sensors (aptasensors) with optical detection (colorimetric, luminescent, or fluorescent) based on different peroxidase mimics, such as DNAzymes, nanoparticles, or metal-organic frameworks.

Abstract
The luminescence performance of fluorescent reagents plays a crucial role in fluorescence analysis. Therefore, in this study, a novel bi-ligand Zn-based metal-organic framework, Au nanoparticle (NP) fluorescent material was synthesized using a hydrothermal method with Zn as the metal source. Simultaneously, a DNA aptamer was introduced as a molecular recognition element to develop a Zn-based MOF@Au NPs/DNA aptamer fluorescent probe for the ultra-trace detection of thiamethoxam residues in agricultural products. The probe captured different concentrations of the target molecule, thiamethoxam, through the DNA aptamer, causing a conformational change in the DNA aptamer and bursting the fluorescence of the probe, therefore establishing a fluorometric method for thiamethoxam detection. This method is highly sensitive due to the excellent luminescence properties of the Zn-based MOF@Au NPs, and the DNA aptamer can specifically recognize thiamethoxam, offering high selectivity. The linear range of the method was 2.5-6000 × 10-11 mol L-1 , with a detection limit of 8.33 × 10-12 mol L-1 . This method was applied to the determination of actual samples, such as bananas, and the spiked recovery rate was found to be in the range 84.05-109.07%. Overall, the proposed probe has high sensitivity, high selectivity, and easy operation for the detection of thiamethoxam residues in actual samples.

Abstract
Dual-state emitters (DSEs) are entities that exhibit fluorescence in both the solution and solid state, which open up a wide range of possibilities for their utilization in various fields. The development of detection platforms using intrinsic luminescent metal-organic frameworks (LMOFs) is highly desirable for a variety of applications. DSE MOFs as a subclass of intrinsic LMOFs are highly attractive due to no need for encapsulation/functionalization by fluorophores and/or using luminescent linkers. Herein, a highly stable intrinsic dual-state blue emission (λem = 425 nm) zinc-based MOF with rodlike nanostructures (denoted as UoZ-2) was synthesized and characterized. To the best of our knowledge, intrinsic DSE of Zn-MOFs with blue emission in the dispersed form in solution and solid-state fluorescence have not been reported yet. When tetracycline (TC) was added, a continuous color evolution from blue to greenish-yellow with dramatic enhancement was observed due to aggregation induced emission (AIE). Thus, a sensitive ratiometry-based visual detection platform, in solution and on paper independently, was designed for detection of TC exploiting the DSE and AIE properties of UoZ-2 alone and UoZ-2:TC. The detection limit was estimated to be 4.5 nM, which is considered to be one of the most sensitive ratiometric fluorescent probes for TC sensing. The ratiometry paper-based UoZ-2 sensor displays a reliable TC quantitative analysis by recognizing RGB values in the on-site TC detection with satisfactory recoveries.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is an effective antibiotic used to treat humans and livestock, but its inappropriate use imposes toxic effects, including pollution, on environmental ecology and food. Currently, sensitive, accurate, and cost-effective methods that can detect lower concentrations of TC residues in environmental and food samples are needed. In this study, a novel indirect competitive assay-based aptamer method was developed for detecting TC residues through signal amplification by real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The response surface methodology was introduced to optimize the optimal concentrations (influencing factors) of the three types of single-stranded DNA in the competitive assay process. The optimal conditions for the three types of ssDNA were 112 nM for the specific aptamer of TC (Apt40), 115 nM for the signal DNA, and 83 nM for the DNA catcher. As expected, under optimal conditions, the Ct value was linearly related to the logarithm of TC concentration. The calibration curve equation was Ct = -0.34516 log[TC] + 9.9345 (R2 = 0.998) in the range of 10-3-103 ng mL-1, and the limit of detection was 7.02 × 10-5 ng mL-1. The new method was effectively applied to detect TC residues in wastewater, honey, and milk samples. It achieved an average recovery rate of 101.19% with a small variation of 5.16%. The validation was carried out using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. This approach demonstrates high sensitivity and selectivity, making it well suited for detecting leftover antibiotics in food when using suitable aptamers.

Abstract
Nanozyme-based multimode detection is a useful means to improve the accuracy and stability of analytical methods. However, both multifunctional nanozymes and related multimodal sensing strategies are still very scarce. Besides, they require complex processes to fabricate and operate. To fill this gap, here we propose a spontaneous interfacial in situ growth strategy to prepare a new bifunctional material (CePO4:Tb@MnOx) featuring good oxidase-like activity and green photoluminescence for the dual-mode colorimetric/luminescence determination of ascorbic acid (AA)-related biomarkers specifically. CePO4:Tb@MnOx was gained through the controllable redox reaction between KMnO4 and CePO4:Tb nanorods. It was interestingly found that MnOx in situ growth not only significantly enhanced the enzyme-like activity but also could reversibly regulate the luminescence of CePO4:Tb via a dual quenching mechanism. More interestingly, CePO4:Tb@MnOx exhibited a distinctive response toward AA against other reducing species. A double-coordination regulation mechanism was further verified to clarify the catalytic activity and luminescence switching behaviors in CePO4:Tb@MnOx. Based on these findings, a dual-mode colorimetric/luminescence approach was established for AA sensing in a "one-stone-two-birds" manner, providing excellent selectivity, sensitivity, and practicability. Furthermore, the determination of AA-related biomarkers, including acid phosphatase activity and organophosphorus residue, was also validated by the sensing principle. Our work not only deepens the understanding of the coordinated regulation of the luminescence and enzyme-like features in lanthanide-based materials but also offers a novel way to design and develop multifunctional nanozymes for advanced bioanalytical applications.

Abstract
The quest for the development of high-accuracy, point-of-care, and cost-effective testing platforms for SARS-CoV-2 infections is ongoing as current diagnostics rely on either assays based on costly yet accurate nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) or less selective and less sensitive but rapid and cost-effective antigen tests. As a potential solution, this work presents a fluorescence-based detection platform using a metal-organic framework (MOF) in an effective assay, demonstrating the potential of MOFs to recognize specific targets of the SARS-CoV-2 genome with high accuracy and rapid process turnaround time. As a highlight of this work, positive detection of SARS-CoV-2 is indicated by a visible color change of the MOF probe with ultrahigh detection selectivities down to single-base mismatch nucleotide sequences, thereby providing an alternative avenue for the development of innovative detection methods for diverse viral genomes.

In this paper, the recent progress in the preparation of typical DNA-mediated multi-mode probes is reviewed from the aspect of deoxyribozyme, aptamer, templated-DNA and G-quadruplex-mediated strategies. Then, the advances in DNA-mediated multi-mode analytical methods for biological samples are summarized in detail. Moreover, the corresponding current applications for biomarker analysis, bioimaging analysis and biological monitoring are introduced. Finally, a proper summary is given and future prospective trends are discussed, hopefully providing useful information to the readers in this research field.

Abstract
Developing accurate, precise, instrument-free, and point-of-need microfluidic paper-based devices is highly significant in clinical diagnosis and biomedical analysis. In the present work, a ratiometric distance-based microfluidic paper-based analytical device (R-DB-μPAD), along with a three-dimensional (3D) multifunctional connector (spacer), was designed to improve the accuracy and detection resolution analyses. Specifically, the novel R-DB-μPAD was used for the accurate and precise detection of ascorbic acid (AA) as a model analyte. In this design, two channels were fabricated as detection zones, with a 3D spacer located between the sampling and detection zones to improve the detection resolution by preventing the reagents mixing from overspreading between these zones. Two probes for AA were used: Fe3+ and 1,10-phenanthroline were deposited in the first channel, and oxidized 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (oxTMB) was added to the second channel. Accuracy improvement of this ratiometry-based design was achieved by enhancing the linearity range and reducing the volume dependency of the output signal. Moreover, the 3D connector improved the detection resolution by eliminating the systematic errors. Under the optimal conditions, the ratio of the distances of the color bands in the two channels was used to construct an analytical calibration curve in the range from 0.05 to 1.2 mM, with a limit of detection of 16 μM. The proposed R-DB-μPAD combined with the connector was successfully used for the detection of AA in orange juice and vitamin C tablets with satisfactory accuracy and precision. This work opens the door for multiplex analysis of various analytes in different matrices.

Abstract
Thrombin (TB) plays a key role in the pathological and physiological coagulation of diseases. In this work, a TB-activated fluorescence-surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) dual-mode optical nanoprobe (MRAu) was constructed by linking rhodamine B (RB)-modified magnetic fluorescent nanospheres with AuNPs through TB-specific recognition peptides. In the presence of TB, the polypeptide substrate could specifically be cleaved by TB, resulting in the weakening of SERS hotspot effect and the reduction of Raman signal. Meanwhile, the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system was destroyed, and the RB fluorescence signal originally quenched by AuNPs was recovered. Using MRAu, SERS and fluorescence methods were combined to extend the TB detection range to 1-150 pM, and the detection limit was as low as 0.35 pM. In addition, the ability to detect TB in human serum also verified the effectiveness and practicality of the nanoprobe. The probe was also successfully employed to evaluate the inhibitory effect against TB of active components in Panax notoginseng. This study provides a new technical means for the diagnosis and drug development of abnormal TB-related diseases.

Abstract
The development of artificial nanozymes with superior catalytic performance and excellent stability has been a long-standing objective for chemists. The total antioxidant capacity (TAC) is one of the most important bioanalytical measures of oxidative stress in the body. The present work aims to develop a smartphone-assisted visual detection sensor using cerium-doped strontium-based metal-organic frameworks (Ce-SrMOFs) as peroxidase-like nanozymes for the rapid, low-cost, on-site detection of TAC. The pristine SrMOF functioned as a peroxidase nanozyme, and its enzymatic activity was enhanced after doping it with Ce(IV) ions because of the multivalent nature and synergistic impact of the heteroatoms. The Ce-SrMOFs were sensitive to the single electron transfer and hydrogen atom transfer processes, which implies that the Ce-SrMOFs can serve as an ideal nanozyme candidate for TAC analysis. The investigated mechanism revealed that •OH is the most active oxygen species for the peroxidase-like activity. The Ce-SrMOFs exhibited a strong affinity for 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and H2O2, with Km values of 0.082 and 0.427 mM, which are 5.29- and 8.67-fold lower than those of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), respectively. The Ce-SrMOFs were used for the detection of ascorbic acid, cysteine, and glutathione, with limits of detection of 44, 53, and 512 nM, respectively. The proposed method proved effective in measuring the TAC in saliva samples from lung cancer patients, thereby yielding results with satisfactory precision and accuracy.

Abstract
In this work, dual-template molecularly imprinted polymer surfaces imprinted on blue fluorescent Cr-based MOF (Cr-MOF) functionalized with yellow emissive carbon dots (Y-CDs) were prepared using l-ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) as templates for simultaneous selective recognition of AA and UA. The as-prepared nanocomposite probe (Y-CDs/Cr-MOF@MIP) contains two recognition site cavities and emits a dual well-resolved fluorescence spectra when excited at 390 nm; blue emission (λem 450 nm) is due to Cr-MOF, and yellow emission (λem 560 nm) is due to Y-CDs. The yellow fluorescence emission of Y-CDs was quenched upon the addition of ascorbic acid, while Cr-MOF's emission remained unaffected. In the same way, the blue fluorescence emission of the Cr-MOFs was quenched in the presence of uric acid, while the yellow emission remained constant. Both emissions were quenched in a sample containing both AA and UA. This can be exploited to design a dual-template biosensor to detect UA and AA simultaneously. The Y-CDs/Cr-MOF@MIP sensor displayed a dynamic linear response for AA in the range 25.0 µM - 425.0 µM with a detection limit of 1.30 µM, and for UA in the range 25.0 µM - 425.0 µM with a detection limit of 1.10 µM. The dual-target probe Y-CDs/Cr-MOF@MIP was highly selective and sensitive for the detection of UA and AA in human urine samples due to the selectivity of the two recognition sites.

Abstract
This review highlights the recent advancements in the field of nanozymes and their applications in the development of point-of-care biosensors. The use of nanozymes as enzyme-mimicking components in biosensing systems has led to improved performance and miniaturization of these sensors. The unique properties of nanozymes, such as high stability, robustness, and surface tunability, make them an attractive alternative to traditional enzymes in biosensing applications. Researchers have explored a wide range of nanomaterials, including metals, metal oxides, and metal-organic frameworks, for the development of nanozyme-based biosensors. Different sensing strategies, such as colorimetric, fluorescent, electrochemical and SERS, have been implemented using nanozymes as signal-producing components. Despite the numerous advantages, there are also challenges associated with nanozyme-based biosensors, including stability and specificity, which need to be addressed for their wider applications. The future of nanozyme-based biosensors looks promising, with the potential to bring a paradigm shift in biomolecular sensing. The development of highly specific, multi-enzyme mimicking nanozymes could lead to the creation of highly sensitive and low-biofouling biosensors. Integration of nanozymes into point-of-care diagnostics promises to revolutionize healthcare by improving patient outcomes and reducing costs while enhancing the accuracy and sensitivity of diagnostic tools.

Abstract
Color tonality by intrinsic fluorescent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is highly desirable in bioanalytical applications due to its stability, low-cost and robustness with no need for functionalization and/or encapsulation of fluorophores. In the present work, ultra-small and higly fluorescent zinc-based MOFs (FMOF-5) were synthesized. The prepared FMOFs were around 5 nm in size, and gave strong blue emission at 440 nm when excited at 350 nm. Interestingly, tetracycline (TC) selectively tuned the blue emission of FMOF-5 to greenish-yellow emission (520 nm) with dramatic enhancement through aggregation induced emission (AIE). The fluorimetric analysis of TC was carried out through the ratiometric peak intensities of F520/F440, with detection limit (LOD) of 5 nM. To realize quantitative point-of-care based on color tonality, a smartphone integrated with the ratiometric visual platform was thereby design. Hence, TC was visually detected with LOD of 10 nM. The prepared FMOF-5-based probe showed high stability (3 months) and reusability (∼10 times). The developed visual-based platform presents great promise for practical point of care testing due to its low-cost, robustness, ruggedness, simple operation, and excellent selectivity and repeatability.
