J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 669:816-824. [PMID: 38749220 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.070] [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: 03/24/2024] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/27/2024]
Abstract
The precise and controllable preparation of carbon nanomaterials under mild conditions poses a great challenge, especially for metal-catalysed multiphase preparation. This work proposes an efficient method that utilizing high-density ultrasound to enhance the liquid-liquid interfacial reaction system. Iron-doped carbon dots (Fe-CDs) are successfully synthesized in such a normal temperature and atmospheric-pressure reaction condition. It is shown that transient cavitation provides a high-temperature and high-pressure microenvironment for the preparation of Fe-CDs. Moreover, the size of the reactant droplets is reduced from 200.0 ± 17.3 μm to 8.1 ± 2.9 μm owing to the acoustic flow and cavitation effects, which increases the specific surface area of the two reacting phases and improves the mass transfer coefficient by more than 252.0 %. As a result, the yield increases by more than an order of magnitude (from 0.7 ± 0.1 % to 11.9 ± 0.2 %) and the Fe doping rate reaches 20.9 %. The photocatalytic oxidation conversion of 1,4-Dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) using the obtained Fe-CDs is as high as 98.2 %. This research gives a new approach for the efficient and safe production of Fe-CDs, which is promising for industrial applications.

[PMID: 39009769 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05416-4] [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: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
Nanomaterials with enzyme-like properties are known as 'nanozymes'. Nanozymes are preferred over natural enzymes due to their nanoscale characteristics and ease of tailoring of their physicochemical properties such as size, structure, composition, surface chemistry, crystal planes, oxygen vacancy, and surface valence state. Interestingly, nanozymes can be precisely controlled to improve their catalytic ability, stability, and specificity which is unattainable by natural enzymes. Therefore, tailor-made nanozymes are being favored over natural enzymes for a range of potential applications and better prospects. In this context, metal oxide nanoparticles with nanozyme-mimicking characteristics are exclusively being used in biomedical sectors and opening new avenues for future nanomedicine. Realising the importance of this emerging area, here, we discuss the mechanistic actions of metal oxide nanozymes along with their key characteristics which affect their enzymatic actions. Further, in this critical review, the recent progress towards the development of point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices, cancer therapy, drug delivery, advanced antimicrobials/antibiofilm, dental caries, neurodegenerative diseases, and wound healing potential of metal oxide nanozymes is deliberated. The advantages of employing metal oxide nanozymes, their potential limitations in terms of nanotoxicity, and possible prospects for biomedical applications are also discussed with future recommendations.

Abstract
Breast and ovarian cancers, despite having chemotherapy and surgical treatment, still have the lowest survival rate. Experimental stages using nanoenzymes/nanozymes for ovarian cancer diagnosis and treatment are being carried out, and correspondingly the current treatment approaches to treat breast cancer have a lot of adverse side effects, which is the reason why researchers and scientists are looking for new strategies with less side effects. Nanoenzymes have intrinsic enzyme-like activities and can reduce the shortcomings of naturally occurring enzymes due to the ease of storage, high stability, less expensive, and enhanced efficiency. In this review, we have discussed various ways in which nanoenzymes are being used to diagnose and treat breast and ovarian cancer. For breast cancer, nanoenzymes and their multi-enzymatic properties can control the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells or tissues, for example, oxidase (OXD) and peroxidase (POD) activity can be used to generate ROS, while catalase (CAT) or superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity can scavenge ROS. In the case of ovarian cancer, most commonly nanoceria is being investigated, and also when folic acid is combined with nanoceria there are additional advantages like inhibition of beta galactosidase. Nanocarriers are also used to deliver small interfering RNA that are effective in cancer treatment. Studies have shown that iron oxide nanoparticles are actively being used for drug delivery, similarly ferritin carriers are used for the delivery of nanozymes. Hypoxia is a major factor in ovarian cancer, therefore MnO2-based nanozymes are being used as a therapy. For cancer diagnosis and screening, nanozymes are being used in sonodynamic cancer therapy for cancer diagnosis and screening, whereas biomedical imaging and folic acid gold particles are also being used for image guided treatments. Nanozyme biosensors have been developed to detect ovarian cancer. This review article summarizes a detailed insight into breast and ovarian cancers in light of nanozymes-based diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
This article explores the intricate interplay between inorganic nanoparticles and Earth's biochemical history, with a focus on their electron transfer properties. It reveals how iron oxide and sulfide nanoparticles, as examples of inorganic nanoparticles, exhibit oxidoreductase activity similar to proteins. Termed "life fossil oxidoreductases," these inorganic enzymes influence redox reactions, detoxification processes, and nutrient cycling in early Earth environments. By emphasizing the structural configuration of nanoparticles and their electron conformation, including oxygen defects and metal vacancies, especially electron hopping, the article provides a foundation for understanding inorganic enzyme mechanisms. This approach, rooted in physics, underscores that life's origin and evolution are governed by electron transfer principles within the framework of chemical equilibrium. Today, these nanoparticles serve as vital biocatalysts in natural ecosystems, participating in critical reactions for ecosystem health. The research highlights their enduring impact on Earth's history, shaping ecosystems and interacting with protein metal centers through shared electron transfer dynamics, offering insights into early life processes and adaptations.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 345:123509. [PMID: 38325512 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123509] [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: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Coal fly ash (CFA), an industrial solid waste, can be utilized to synthesize Zeolite Socony Mobil-5 (ZSM-5) by incorporating an external silica source. In this study, a series of ZSM-5 zeolites were synthesized using rice husk ash (RHA) as the primary silica source and CFA as the primary aluminum source under controlled hydrothermal reaction conditions, and the growth mechanism of ZSM-5 was investigated. The process of ZSM-5 growth was featured by the transformation of hyperpoly silico-aluminate in CFA and RHA into monomers. These monomers formed crystal nuclei connected in a five-membered ring structure under the influence of Tetrapropyl ammonium hydroxide (TPAOH). The surplus monomeric silica-aluminate grew on the nucleus surface due to the addition of the silica source within RHA (RHA-SiO2), ultimately resulting in the development of ZSM-5 zeolite. Characterization results demonstrated that RHA-SiO2 exhibited favorable physical and chemical properties during the ZSM-5 synthesis, with a crystallinity of 99.03%, a specific surface area of 321.19 m2/g, a weight loss of only 3.06% at 800 °C and a total acidity of 0.65 mmol/g. To evaluate the catalytic performance of ZSM-5, Fe/Cu-modified ZSM-5 was developed and used as the catalyst for the degradation of tetracycline (TC) in Fenton-like oxidation. The results indicated that Fe/Cu-ZSM-5 exhibited excellent activity and stability as the catalyst for TC degradation and mineralization. The maximum TC degradation rate reached 99.02% in 10 min and the TOC removal could be up to 69.32% in 2 h. Characterization results indicated that the Fe/Cu ions redox cycle accelerated the generation of active species (1O2 and ˙OH) in Fenton-like systems. The ZSM-5 zeolite synthesized from solid waste demonstrated superb stability and catalytic activity, leading to the effective removal of TC. Since real wastewater generally contains various pollutants, future research efforts should focused on multi-pollutant treatment.

Abstract
The needless use of tetracyclines (TCs) in foodstuffs is a huge health concern in low- and middle-income and Arab countries. Herein, a sensitive and faster monitoring system for H2O2 and TCs is proposed, utilizing the large surface-to-volume ratio of a non-spherical gold nanoparticle/black phosphorus nanocomposite (BP-nsAu NPs) for the first time. BP-nsAu NPs were synthesized through a single-step method that presented nanozymatic activity through 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) oxidation while H2O2 was present and obeyed the Michaelis-Menten equation. The nanozymatic activity of the BP-nsAu NPs was enhanced 12-fold and their detection time was decreased 83-fold compared to conventional nanozymatic reactions. The proposed method enabled us to quantify H2O2 with a limit of detection (LOD) value of 60 nM. Moreover, target-specific aptamer-conjugated BP-nsAu NPs helped us detect TCs with an LOD value of 90 nM. The present strategy provides a proficient route for low-level TC monitoring in real samples.

Abstract
Inflammatory skin disorders can cause chronic scarring and functional impairments, posing a significant burden on patients and the healthcare system. Conventional therapies, such as corticosteroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, are limited in efficacy and associated with adverse effects. Recently, nanozyme (NZ)-based hydrogels have shown great promise in addressing these challenges. NZ-based hydrogels possess unique therapeutic abilities by combining the therapeutic benefits of redox nanomaterials with enzymatic activity and the water-retaining capacity of hydrogels. The multifaceted therapeutic effects of these hydrogels include scavenging reactive oxygen species and other inflammatory mediators modulating immune responses toward a pro-regenerative environment and enhancing regenerative potential by triggering cell migration and differentiation. This review highlights the current state of the art in NZ-engineered hydrogels (NZ@hydrogels) for anti-inflammatory and skin regeneration applications. It also discusses the underlying chemo-mechano-biological mechanisms behind their effectiveness. Additionally, the challenges and future directions in this ground, particularly their clinical translation, are addressed. The insights provided in this review can aid in the design and engineering of novel NZ-based hydrogels, offering new possibilities for targeted and personalized skin-care therapies.

Abstract
Sensitive detection of cholesterol in animal-derived foods is crucial for maintaining human healthy diets. In this study, an elegant approach utilizing inorganic nanozyme-based magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MMSNs) for the highly sensitive detection of cholesterol in animal-derived food products was reported. The results revealed the fabricated MMSNs exhibited remarkably intrinsic peroxidase (POD)-like catalytic activities with improved affinity, and the catalytic behavior aligned well with Michaelis-Menten equation. In addition, the data indicated that the MMSNs enabled visual colorimetric detection of cholesterol with a remarkably low detection limit of 7.12 μM by combining catalytic oxidation with cholesterol oxidase (ChOx). Furthermore, the prepared MMSNs were successfully employed for assessing cholesterol content in milk and egg yolk samples, indicating potential applications for cholesterol detection in animal-derived foods in future.

Abstract
Laccases are natural catalysts with remarkable catalytic activity. However, their application is limited by their lack of stability. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising alternative for enzyme immobilization. Enzymes can be immobilized in MOFs via two approaches: postsynthetic immobilization and in situ immobilization. In postsynthetic immobilization, an enzyme is embedded after MOF formation by covalent interactions or adsorption. In contrast, in in situ immobilization, a MOF is formed in the presence of an enzyme. Additionally, MOFs have exhibited intrinsic enzyme-like activity. These materials, known as nanozymes when they have the ability to replace enzymes in certain catalytic processes, have multiple key advantages, such as low cost, easy preparation, and large surface areas. This review presents a general overview of the most recent advances in both enzyme@MOF biocatalysts and MOF-based nanozymes in different applications, with a focus on laccase, which is one of the most widely investigated enzymes with excellent industrial potential.

Abstract
Designing nanozymes with excellent catalytic activity through valence state engineering and defect engineering is a widely applicable strategy. However, their development is hindered by the complexity of the design strategies. In this work, we employed a simple calcination method to regulate the valence of manganese and crystalline states in manganese oxide nanozymes. The oxidase-like activity of the nanozymes was found to benefit from a mixed valence state dominated by Mn (III). And the amorphous structure with more active defect sites significantly enhanced the catalytic efficiency. Moreover, we demonstrated that amorphous mixed-valent Mn-containing (amvMn) nanozymes with unique cocklebur-like biomimetic morphology achieved specific binding to cancer cells through the Velcro effects. Subsequently, the nanozymes mediated TMB coloration through their oxidase-like activity, enabling the colorimetric detection of cancer cells. This work not only provides guidance for optimizing nanozyme performance, but also inspire the development of equipment-free visual detection methods for cancer cells.

Anti-CD44 antibodies grafted immunoaffinity Fe 3O 4@MnO 2 nanozymes with highly oxidase-like catalytic activity for specific detection of triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1249:340947.

Abstract
Cell-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CELISA) is extensively applied for cancer diagnosis and screening because of its simple operation, high sensitivity, and intuitive color change. However, the unstable horseradish peroxidase (HRP), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and non-specificity have led to a high false negative rate, which limits its application. In this study, we have developed an innovative immunoaffinity nanozyme aided CELISA based on anti-CD44 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) bioconjugated manganese dioxide-modified magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4@MnO2 NPs) for the specific detection of triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. The CD44FM nanozymes were fabricated to replace unstable HRP and H2O2 to counteract possible negative effects in conventional CELISA. Results suggested that CD44FM nanozymes displayed remarkable oxidase-like activities over an extensive pH and temperature range. The bioconjugation of CD44 mAbs enabled CD44FM nanozymes to enter MDA-MB-231 cells selectively via over-expressed CD44 antigens on the membrane surface of these cells, and then catalyzed oxidation of the chromogenic substrate TMB, further achieving specific detection of these cells. Additionally, this study exhibited high sensitivity and low detection limit for MDA-MB-231 cells with a quantitation range of just 186 cells. To sum up, this report developed a simple, specific and sensitive assay platform based on CD44FM nanozymes, which could provide a promising strategy for targeted diagnosis and screening of breast cancer.

Abstract
Cascade catalytic therapy has been recognized as a promising cancer treatment strategy, which is due in part to the induced tumor apoptosis when converting intratumoral hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) based on the Fenton or Fenton-like reactions. Moreover this is driven by the efficient catalysis of glucose oxidization associated with starving therapy. The natural glucose oxidase (GO x ), recognized as a "star" enzyme catalyst involved in cancer treatment, can specially and efficiently catalyze the glucose oxidization into gluconic acid and H2O2. Herein, pH-responsive biodegradable cascade therapeutic nanocomposites (Fe3O4/GO x -PLGA) with dual enzymatic catalytic features were designed to respond to the tumor microenvironment (TME) and to catalyze the cascade reaction (glucose oxidation and Fenton-like reaction) for inducing oxidase stress. The GO x -motivated oxidation reaction could effectively consume intratumoral glucose to produce H2O2 for starvation therapy and the enriched H2O2 was subsequently converted into highly toxic ˙OH by a Fe3O4-mediated Fenton-like reaction for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). In addition, the acidity amplification owing to the generation of gluconic acid will in turn accelerate the degradation of the nanocomposite and initiate the Fe3O4-H2O2 reaction for enhancing CDT. The resultant cooperative cancer therapy was proven to provide highly efficient tumor inhibition on HeLa cells with minimal systemic toxicity. This cascade catalytic Fenton nanocomposite might provide a promising strategy for efficient cancer therapy.

Abstract
Natural enzymes possess several drawbacks which limits their application in industries, wastewater remediation and biomedical field. Therefore, in recent years researchers have developed enzyme mimicking nanomaterials and enzymatic hybrid nanoflower which are alternatives of enzyme. Nanozymes and organic inorganic hybrid nanoflower have been developed which mimics natural enzymes functionalities such as diverse enzyme mimicking activities, enhanced catalytic activities, low cost, ease of preparation, stability and biocompatibility. Nanozymes include metal and metal oxide nanoparticles mimicking oxidases, peroxidases, superoxide dismutase and catalases while enzymatic and non-enzymatic biomolecules were used for preparing hybrid nanoflower. In this review nanozymes and hybrid nanoflower have been compared in terms of physiochemical properties, common synthetic routes, mechanism of action, modification, green synthesis and application in the field of disease diagnosis, imaging, environmental remediation and disease treatment. We also address the current challenges facing nanozyme and hybrid nanoflower research and the possible way to fulfil their potential in future.

Abstract
Nanozymes and amorphous nanomaterials attract great attention owing to their extraordinary properties. However, the requirements for special synthesis conditions become the bottleneck of their development. Herein, a new strategy involving the DNA-based coordination-driven self-assembly is reported for the synthesis of a novel amorphous/crystalline hetero-phase nanozyme (Fe-DNA). For the synthesis of both nanozymes and amorphous materials, this strategy is simple and controllable, avoiding the traditionally employed harsh conditions. Benefitting from the amorphous structure and the superior physicochemical properties, the synthesized Fe-DNA nanozyme is subsequently found to exhibit a smaller Michaelis constant value for hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) (0.81 mm) than that of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (3.70 mm), demonstrating the stronger affinity of the Fe-DNA nanozyme toward H2 O2 . The Fe-DNA nanozyme also shows significant peroxidase-like activity but only negligible oxidase-like activity, a characteristic which releases the corresponding assay system from oxygen interference, thereby improving the performance of the nanozyme-based sensing platform. In addition, compared with other nanozymes, the novel Fe-DNA nanozyme is degradable via phosphate; thus, mitigating potential environmental threat. This work provides novel amorphous/crystalline hetero-phase nanozymes and opens a new avenue for the design of amorphous nanomaterials and nanozymes.

Abstract
Surface engineering of nanozymes has been recognized as a potent strategy to improve their catalytic activity and specificity. We synthesized polydopamine-coated Co3O4 nanoparticles (PDA@Co3O4 NPs) through simple dopamine-induced self-assembly and demonstrated that these NPs exhibit catalase-like activity by decomposing H2O2 into oxygen and water. The activity of PDA@Co3O4 NPs was approximately fourfold higher than that of Co3O4 NPs without PDA, possibly due to the additional radical scavenging activity of the PDA shell. In addition, PDA@Co3O4 NPs were more stable than natural catalase under a wide range of pH, temperature, and storage time conditions. Upon the addition of a sample containing sulfide ion, the activity of PDA@Co3O4 NPs was significantly inhibited, possibly because of increased mass transfer limitations via the absorption of the sulfide ion on the PDA@Co3O4 NP surface, along with NP aggregation which reduced their surface area. The reduced catalase-like activity was used to determine the levels of sulfide ion by measuring the increased fluorescence of the oxidized terephthalic acid, generated from the added H2O2. Using this strategy, the target sulfide ion was sensitively determined to a lower limit of 4.3 µM and dynamic linear range of up to 200 µM. The fluorescence-based sulfide ion assay based on PDA@Co3O4 NPs was highly precise when applied to real tap water samples, validating its potential for conveniently monitoring toxic elements in the environment.

Abstract
Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) may generate deleterious effects on biomolecules, such as DNA damage, protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation, causing cell and tissue damage and eventually leading to the pathogenesis of diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, ischemia/reperfusion ((I/R)) injury, and inflammatory diseases. Therefore, the modulation of ROS can be an efficient means to relieve the aforementioned diseases. Several studies have verified that antioxidants such as Mitoquinone (a mitochondrial-targeted coenzyme Q10 derivative) can scavenge ROS and attenuate related diseases. Nanozymes, defined as nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme-like properties that also possess antioxidant properties, are hence expected to be promising alternatives for the treatment of ROS-related diseases. This review introduces the types of nanozymes with inherent antioxidant activities, elaborates on various strategies (eg, controlling the size or shape of nanozymes, regulating the composition of nanozymes and environmental factors) for modulating their catalytic activities, and summarizes their performances in treating ROS-induced diseases.

Abstract
Many studies have recently produced artificial enzymes with metal nanoparticles (NPs) to overcome the limitations of natural enzymes, such as low stability, high cost, and storage problems. In particular, gold NPs exhibit peroxidase-like activity and are strongly influenced by external parameters, such as pH, temperature, size, shape, and functional layer, which change the enzyme activity. Here, chitosan-capped multibranched Au-Ag-Pt NPs (CCNPs) that mimic peroxidase were synthesized using various peroxidase-mimicking strategies. The results demonstrated that enzyme activity sequentially increased because of the multibranched Au-Ag NPs coated with Pt and chitosan. The enzyme activity of the particle was evaluated through the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), which causes a color change into blue. This change was observable with the naked eye and could be used practically. The color change depended on the concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and it was shown that the CCNPs could be applied to measure H2O2 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.054 mM. Furthermore, with glucose oxidase, the CCNPs can be used for glucose detection with an LOD of 0.289 mM. Also, the potential of the CCNP application in human serum was shown through the serum test. Thus, this study suggested the utilization of the multibranched Au-Ag-Pt NPs that mimic the peroxidase activity of natural enzymes and the possibility of application in various biological analyses.

Abstract
Herein, a novel heterogeneous nanozyme with peroxidase (POD)-like activity was conducted to achieve ultrasensitive visual detection of calcium peroxide (CaO2) in flour by the assembly of binary copper-trapped mesoporous silica layer coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4 @SiO2 @CuO NPs). The prepared nanozymes were characterized using HRTEM, SEM, FT-IR, XRD, DLS, and EIS, which displayed a dispersed core-shell structure with a uniform diameter of approximately 100 nm. The nanozymes exhibited remarkable and stable POD-like activity in a wide range of pH values, incubation temperature, and reaction time, and the optimum catalytic activity was obtained at pH 3.6, 37 °C, and 10 min. The quantification range of CaO2 of this method is 0.1-5 mM with a limit as low as 5.6 × 10-3 mM, and it is not affected by multiple interferences. In conclusion, this detection method is sensitive, stable, low-cost, and simple to operate, so it has broad application prospects in the detection of food additives such as CaO2.

Abstract
This study, it is aimed to develop an electrochemical aptasensor that can detect phosphate ions using 3.3'5.5' tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). It is based on the principle of converting the binding affinity of the target molecule phosphate ion (PO43-) into an electrochemical signal with specific aptamer sequences for the aptasensor to be developed. The aptamer structure served as a gate for the TMB to be released and was used to trap the TMB molecule in mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs). The samples for this study were characterized by transmission electron spectroscopy (TEM), Brunner-Emmet-Teller, dynamic light scattering&electrophoretic light scattering, and induction coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. According to TEM analysis, MSNPs have a morphologically hexagonal structure and an average size of 208 nm. In this study, palladium-carbon nanoparticles (Pd/C NPs) with catalytic reaction were used as an alternative to the biologically used horseradish peroxidase (HRP) enzyme for the release of TMB in the presence of phosphate ions. The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as 0.983 μM, the limit of determination (LOQ) was calculated as 3.276 μM, and the dynamic linear phosphate range was found to be 50-1000 μM. The most important advantage of this bio-based aptasensor assembly is that it does not contain molecules such as a protein that cannot be stored for a long time at room temperature, so its shelf life is very long compared to similar systems developed with antibodies. The proposed sensor shows good recovery in phosphate ion detection and is considered to have great potential among electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Introducing the idea of integrated design and cascade activity into nanozyme, the novel integrated nanozymes (INAzymes), FeMo6 @Ce-Uio-66 (FC-66(n)), were designed and synthesized by encapsulating iron-based polyoxometalates (FeMo6 ) into the ceria-based metal-organic framework (Ce-Uio-66). Due to the oxygen-driven reversible Ce3+ /Ce4+ couple sites, the "Fenton-like" effect by iron centers, the "nanoscale proximity" effects by nanocages, and their synergistic effects, FC-66(n) as INAzymes exhibit elegant cascade enzyme-mimic activities (oxidase-, peroxidase-, and Fenton-like activity), which realizes INAzyme activities based on polyoxometalates based metal-organic framework (POMOFs). By employing dopamine (DA) detection as a model reaction, a high-efficient fluorescent "turning-on-enhanced" platform under near neutral conditions was established.

Abstract
P-nitrophenol (PNP), a widely used compound, is harmful to the environment and human health. In this study, four iron-based Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) were prepared by coprecipitation (Co-Fe PBA, Mn-Fe PBA, Cu-Fe PBA and Fe-Fe PBA). The Co-Fe PBA exhibited high peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation performance for PNP degradation, removing over 90% of PNP in 60 min at an optimal pH of 7, temperature at 30 ℃, initial concentration of 20 mg/L, PBA dose of 0.2 g/L and PMS dose of 1 g/L. The physicochemical properties of the Co-Fe PBA were investigated by various characterization methods. The catalytic activity of PBA and the influence of various process parameters and water quality on the catalytic reaction were investigated to elucidate the mechanism of p-nitrophenol degradation by PBA-activated persulfate. Moreover, the mechanism of accelerated degradation of PNP under HCO3- conditions and the role of major reactive oxides were determined by EPR measurement methods and free radical trapping experiments. HCO3- was found to directly activate PMS to produce reactive oxygen species, and 1O2, ∙OH and SO4∙- were all greatly increased. This work presents a promising green heterogeneous catalyst for the degradation of emerging contaminants (ECs) in real wastewater with natural organic matter and coexisting anions by PMS activation.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a new Pd NP from the aq extract of Elsholtzia blanda Benth. flower that showed efficient peroxidase mimetic activity. The catalytic mechanism was confirmed through colorimetric analysis. The optimizations of temperature, concentration, PH and time were done to find out the best procedure to implement the intrinsic catalytic activity in practical applications. Michaelis-Menten constants were evaluated for both TMB and H2O2 substrate to investigate the affinity of Pd NP towards them. Km was observed to be 42.35 mM for H2O2 and 0.0076 mM for TMB. Antioxidants were sensed using the peroxidase mimetic property up to nanomolar levels with a LOD = 0.78 nM for Gallic acid 0.85 nM for Tannic acid. The method was further implemented in comparing the radical scavenging power of different phenolic compounds. Smart-phone based analysis was done for observing the change in colour which could further be utilized as an analytical tool for study the antioxidant activity. R-Square values of 0.97 and 0.96 for detection of gallic acid and tannic acid respectively suggest good linearity of the plot. Lastly, the system was utilized in the evaluation of total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and total phenolic content (TPC) in commercially available juices and beverages.

Abstract
Herein, a nanozyme-mediated ratiometric fluorescence immunoassay for histamine (HA) has been developed. Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) with outstanding peroxidase-like activity were labelled with goat anti-mouse IgG via a facile electrostatic adsorption to yield the nanozyme-antibody conjugate which acted as a bridge to link the ratiometric fluorescence readout with HA concentration. As substrate, o-phenylenediamine (OPD) was oxidized into 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD) by H2O2 under the catalysis of PBNPs, producing a novel emission at 570 nm and quenching the fluorescence of carbon dots (CDs) at 450 nm simultaneously. Under optimal conditions, the ratio of fluorescence intensity at 570 nm and 450 nm (I570/I450) linearly correlated with HA concentration ranging from 1.6 ng/mL to 125 μg/mL, with a detection limit (LOD) of 1.2 ng/mL. In addition, analytical performances including specificity, accuracy and applicability were evaluated, which revealed that this ratiometric fluorescence immunoassay affords an effective platform for sensitive and accurate detection of HA.

Abstract
In this paper, a simple, rapid, and low-cost colorimetric method was designed based on Co/Fe-MOFs-iodide composite for the quantitative detection of H2S. It is know that iodide can improve the catalytic activity of bimetallic porous material Co/Fe-MOFs via adsorption into the framework of MOFs. Herein, we demonstrate a novel strategy to enhance the peroxidase-like activity of MOFs. Compared to horseradish peroxidase (HRP), the kinetic measurement results show that Co/Fe-MOFs-iodide exhibits excellent affinity to substrates, promoting electron transfer. Due to the synergetic effect of Co/Fe-MOFs and iodide, and rapid electron transfer process, Co/Fe-MOFs-iodide demonstrates improved peroxidase-like activity. As a proof-of-concept application, a novel, highly sensitive H2S colorimetric method is established with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.33 nM. In the absence of iodide, LOD is approx. 200-fold higher than that of the amplified colorimetric assay. The proposed method can also accurately detect traces of H2S in serum samples.

Abstract
Implementing new methods to prepare magnetite nanoparticles with a covered or uncovered surface has been, and still is, a significant challenge. In this work, we describe a very clear and effortless way for the preparation of magnetite nanoparticles using two types of bases, namely: 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole and sodium hydroxide. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) served as a tool for the structural investigation of the as-prepared magnetite nanoparticles. The morphology of the samples was investigated using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Comprehensive high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy investigations (XPS) were applied as an effective tool for analyzing the composition of the various types of magnetic nanoparticles. Further polymer linkage was accomplished with poly(benzofuran-co-arylacetic acid) on the amino-functionalized surface of aminopropylimidazole-containing magnetic nanoparticles. The findings are promising for biomedicine, catalysis, and nanotechnology applications.

Abstract
The major challenge in the field of antibacterial agents is to overcome the low-permeability of bacteria cell membranes that protects the cells against diverse drugs. In this work, water-soluble polyaniline (PANI)-poly (p-styrenesulfonic acid) (PSS) (PANI:PSS) is found to spontaneously penetrate bacteria cellular membranes in a non-disruptive way, leaving no evidence of membrane poration/disturbance or cell death, thus avoiding side effects caused by cationic ammonia groups in traditional ammonia-containing antibacterial agents. For aqueous synthesis, which is important for biocompatibility, the polymer is synthesized via an enzyme-mimetic route relying on the catalysis of a nanozyme. Owing to its fluorescent properties, the localization of as-prepared PANI:PSS is determined by the confocal microscope, and the results confirm its rapid entry into bacteria. Under 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, the internalized PANI:PSS generates local hyperthermia and destroys bacteria highly efficiently from inside the cells due to its excellent photothermal effects. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), M ethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) could be effectively eliminated as well as the corresponding bacterial biofilms. Results of in vivo antibacterial experiments demonstrate excellent antibacterial activities of the water-soluble PANI:PSS without side effects. Therefore, the prepared water-soluble polymer in this study has great potential in the treatment of various bacterial infections.

Abstract
The elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by glutathione (GSH) is a fundamental concern in the oxidative stress therapy (OST) of tumors. This is the first report of copper phosphate nanospheres coated by poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (Cu3(PO4)2@PEGDA) which act as nanozymes to amplify the anti-tumor effects of OST. Cu3(PO4)2@PEGDA not only catalyzes the generation of ˙OH from H2O2 but also consumes GSH, which is counterproductive to the role of ˙OH. Moreover, the photothermal properties of Cu3(PO4)2@PEGDA further enhances the outcome of the OST when exposed to an 808 nm laser. Another novelty lies in that a new PEGylation strategy of peroxidase-like nanozymes is proposed, in which the Cu3(PO4)2 cores work as internal heaters and radical generators, which are necessary to initiate the radical polymerization of PEGDA. An elaborate core-shell nanostructure is obtained since the polymerization prefers to take place in the vicinity of the cores, overcoming the drawbacks of traditional PEGylation methods which include invalid polymerization far away from the cores and easy core-shell disassembly during applications.

Abstract
The precise synthesis of fine-sized nanoparticles is critical for realizing the advantages of nanoparticles for various applications. We developed a technique for preparing finely controllable sizes of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) on a silica template, using the seed-mediated growth and interval dropping methods. These Au NPs, embedded on silica nanospheres (SiO2@Au NPs), possess peroxidase-like activity as nanozymes and have several advantages over other nanoparticle-based nanozymes. We confirmed their peroxidase activity; in addition, factors affecting the activity were investigated by varying the reaction conditions, such as concentrations of tetramethyl benzidine and H2O2, pH, particle amount, reaction time, and termination time. We found that SiO2@Au NPs are highly stable under long-term storage and reusable for five cycles. Our study, therefore, provides a novel method for controlling the properties of nanoparticles and for developing nanoparticle-based nanozymes.

Abstract
Inspired by the hierarchical fabrication technique, many self-assembly procedures have improved the construction of nanomaterials with unique physicochemical characteristics and multiple functions. The generation of multiple complexes is always accompanied by hierarchical structures and intriguing properties that are distinct from their individual segments. An interesting composite is amorphous magnetic Zn-Zr phosphate hydrated nanosheets (Zn-Zr APHNs), generated using templated synthesis and nanoparticle codeposition. The special porous structure of this construct, together with the abundance of metal ions and hydrate present, endows it with many interaction sites for proteins, provides high loading efficiency, and enhances bioactivity. Then, a series of proteins, including enzymes, was immobilized by the Zn-Zr APHNs by multiple interactions, high ionization, and larger surface of the nanosheets. In this study, novel methods for the enrichment of bioactive proteins while retaining the activity of protein payloads are presented. As a verification method, it is indicated that the Zn-Zr APHNs can deliver enzyme proteins (i.e., Cyt-c) to increase the catalytic activity with their biological function and structural integrity, resulting in a highly increased activity to free proteins.

Abstract
The development of photothermal materials with a high light-to-heat conversion capability is essential for the utilization of clean solar energy. In this work, we demonstrate the use of a novel and sustainable concept involving cellulose liquefaction, rapid gelation, in situ synthesis and hot-press drying to convert cellulose and metal-organic framework (Prussian blue) into a stable photothermal bioplastic that can harvest sunlight and convert it into mechanical motion. As expected, the obtained Prussian blue@cellulose bioplastic (PCBP) can effectively absorb sunlight and the surface can be heated up to 70.3 °C under one sun irradiation (100 mW cm-2). As a demonstration of the practicality of PCBP, it was successfully used to drive a Stirling engine motion. Meanwhile, hot-pressing promotes the densification of the structure of PCBP and, therefore, improves the resistance to the penetration of water/non-aqueous liquids. Moreover, PCBP shows good mechanical properties and thermal stability. Given the excellent photothermal performance and environmentally friendly features of photothermal conversion bioplastic, we envisage this sustainable plastic film could play important roles toward diversified applications: a photothermal layer for thermoelectric generator, agricultural films for soil mulching and photothermal antibacterial activity, among others.

Abstract
Heterogeneous activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) is one of the most promising techniques for wastewater treatment. Herein, an ingenious system by coupling of photocatalysis and PMS activation was developed, using hollow-structured amorphous prussian blue (A-PB) decorated on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as the catalyst. Degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) via the A-PB-g-C3N4 mediated PMS activation under visible light (Vis) was systematically investigated. Astonishingly, it was found that ~ 82.0%, 92.6%, 98.2% and 99.3% of BPA (40 mg/L) were removed within 2, 4, 6 and 7 min, respectively, suggesting the extremely strong oxidizing capacity of the A-PB-g-C3N4/PMS/Vis system. Synergistic effect between the decorated A-PB and the g-C3N4 substrate promoted the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycling and facilitated the charge transfer at the A-PB/g-C3N4 heterojunction interface. As a result, both photocatalysis and heterogeneous activation of PMS were boosted in the A-PB-g-C3N4/PMS/Vis system, leading to the production of large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The various ROS (SO4•-, HO•, •O2- and 1O2) was responsible for the ultrafast degradation of BPA. Moreover, the A-PB-g-C3N4 catalyst also exhibited outstanding reusability and stability, retaining 98.9% of the removal percentage for BPA after five consecutive reaction cycles. This study suggests that the A-PB-g-C3N4 can be an all-rounder to bridge photocatalysis and PMS activation, and shed a new light on the application of multiple ROS for the ultrafast elimination of micropollutants from wastewater.

Abstract
Nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-like activities, are becoming powerful competitors and potential substitutes for natural enzymes because of their excellent performance. Nanozymes offer better structural stability over their respective natural enzymes. In consequence, nanozymes exhibit promising applications in different fields such as the biomedical sector (in vivo diagnostics/and therapeutics) and the environmental sector (detection and remediation of inorganic and organic pollutants). Prussian blue nanoparticles and their analogues are metal–organic frameworks (MOF) composed of alternating ferric and ferrous irons coordinated with cyanides. Such nanoparticles benefit from excellent biocompatibility and biosafety. Besides other important properties, such as a highly porous structure, Prussian blue nanoparticles show catalytic activities due to the iron atom that acts as metal sites for the catalysis. The different states of oxidation are responsible for the multicatalytic activities of such nanoparticles, namely peroxidase-like, catalase-like, and superoxide dismutase-like activities. Depending on the catalytic performance, these nanoparticles can generate or scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Abstract
Wireless nano-/micromotors powered by chemical reactions and/or external fields generate motive forces, perform tasks, and significantly extend short-range dynamic responses of passive biomedical microcarriers. However, before micromotors can be translated into clinical use, several major problems, including the biocompatibility of materials, the toxicity of chemical fuels, and deep tissue imaging methods, must be solved. Nanomaterials with enzyme-like characteristics (e.g., catalase, oxidase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase), that is, nanozymes, can significantly expand the scope of micromotors' chemical fuels. A convergence of nanozymes, micromotors, and microfluidics can lead to a paradigm shift in the fabrication of multifunctional micromotors in reasonable quantities, encapsulation of desired subsystems, and engineering of FDA-approved core-shell structures with tuneable biological, physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Microfluidic methods are used to prepare stable bubbles/microbubbles and capsules integrating ultrasound, optoacoustic, fluorescent, and magnetic resonance imaging modalities. The aim here is to discuss an interdisciplinary approach of three independent emerging topics: micromotors, nanozymes, and microfluidics to creatively: 1) embrace new ideas, 2) think across boundaries, and 3) solve problems whose solutions are beyond the scope of a single discipline toward the development of micro-bio-chemo-mechanical-systems for diverse bioapplications.

Abstract
The ability to modulate the catalytic activity of inorganic nanozymes is of high interest. In particular, understanding the interactions of inhibitor molecules with nanozymes can bring them one step closer to the natural enzymes and has thus started to attract intense interest. To date, a few reversible inhibitors of the nanozyme activity have been reported. However, there are no reports of irreversible inhibitor molecules that can permanently inhibit the activity of nanozymes. In the current work, we show the ability of L-cysteine to act as an irreversible inhibitor to permanently block the nanozyme activity of 2-dimensional (2D) NiO nanosheets. Determination of the steady state kinetic parameters allowed us to obtain mechanistic insights into the catalytic inhibition process. Further, based on the irreversible catalytic inhibition capability of L-cysteine, we demonstrate a highly specific sensor for the detection of this biologically important molecule.

Abstract
Recently, rising distress over ecological pollution owing to water contamination by coloring effluents primarily due to dyes is of growing concern. The development of semiconductor/magnetic oxide-based nanomaterials has verified to be a potent remediation means for water pollution. In the present article, the fabrication of nanocomposites was carried out by the facile hydrothermal method. The ZnO and ZnSe nanoparticles were in situ formed on the α-Fe2O3 layer, thereby forming a heterojunction. The prepared α-Fe2O3/ZnSe nanocomposite possessed a degradation of 98.9% for a Congo red aqueous solution of 100 ppm. The α-Fe2O3/ZnO nanocomposite showed only 26% degradation of 100 ppm dye solution depicting a poor photocatalytic performance. This is attributed to the formation of recombination-enhanced configuration (type-I heterostructure) in the α-Fe2O3/ZnO nanocomposite (NC). In contrast, α-Fe2O3/ZnSe NC accomplished a higher and enhanced photocatalytic response. The key rationale for elevated photocatalytic response is the establishment of a recombination-free configuration (type-II heterostructure). Thus, α-Fe2O3/ZnSe NC known as one of outstanding nanoparticle-nanocomposite photocatalysts was synthesized under mild conditions exclusive of some multifaceted post-treatment, for dye abatement process.

Abstract
The field of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based biomimetic catalysts has achieved great progress but is still in its infancy. The systematic investigation of the tailored construction of MOF-based biomimetic catalysts is required for further development. Herein, two iron-based MOFs, namely, [(Fe3O)2(H2O)4(HCOO)(L)2]n (HUST-5: H6L = hexakis(4-formylphenoxy) cyclotriphosphazene; HUST = Huazhong University of Science and Technology) and [(Fe3O)(H2O)3(L)]n (HUST-7) have been fabricated through the assembly of different iron clusters and hexa-carboxylate ligand under the control of the added acid species. The two MOFs exhibit distinct secondary building units (SBUs) and topological structures, which could be used as biomimetic catalysts for the systematic comparisons of structural characteristics and the catalytic activity. Both MOFs possess catalytic activity similar to that of natural peroxidases towards the catalysis of the oxidation of a variety of substrates. Significantly, HUST-5 and HUST-7 can effectively catalyze the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by H2O2 accompanied by significant colorimetric biosensing. With same compositions, different catalytic performances were obtained due to differences in the porous structures and characteristics of SBUs in two Fe-MOFs, which was also validated by theoretical calculation results. Furthermore, the phenomenon of colorimetric biosensing could be significantly suppressed by the addition of ascorbic acid (AA) during the oxidation process of TMB. It was observed from these findings that a facile colorimetric biosensing platform for detecting H2O2 and ascorbic acid has been successfully explored. Therefore, this work provides another unique perspective for the tailor-made preparation of stable MOF-based peroxidase mimics with excellent catalytic performance and colorimetric biosensing.

Abstract
In current work, Prussian blue (PB)- and hydroxyapatite (HAp)-embedded micro-adsorbents (PB-HAp-MAs) were rationally fabricated through an easy and flexible custom-made micronozzle system as a novel bifunctional adsorbent. The adsorption performance of the as-prepared samples was conducted based on the removal of cesium (Cs+) and strontium (Sr2+) ions. Adsorption behaviors of the PB-HAp-MAs were also evaluated as function extrusion dimensions and adsorbate concentration. The adsorption isotherm was well fitted by the Langmuir model with adsorption capacities of 24.688 mg g-1 and 29.254 mg g-1 for Cs+ and Sr2+, respectively. Specially, the enhanced adsorption activity can be synergistically attributed to the porous nature of the developed alginate backbone with a high surface area of encapsulated functional nanoparticles, thus leading to rapid saturation within 1 min. In addition, the as-synthesized PB-HAp-MAs were successfully separated from the aqueous solution within 10 s by applying a magnetic field. We expect that our findings will provide valuable guidelines towards developing highly efficient adsorbents for environmental remediation.
