Colorimetric aptasensor utilizing MOF-235 with exceptional peroxidase-like activity for the detection of oxytetracycline residues in raw milk. Food Chem 2024; 447:138966. [PMID: 38479142 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
In this work, a simple, convenient and cost-effective colorimetric aptasensor was successfully constructed for the detection of antibiotic residues in raw milk based on the property that aptamer (Apt) synergistically enhances the catalase-like activity of MOF-235. Under optimised conditions, the proposed colorimetric aptasensor exhibited a wide detection range (15-1500 nM) with a low detection limit (6.92 nM). Furthermore, the proposed aptasensor demonstrated high selectivity, good resistance to interference and storage stability. The proposed aptasensor was validated by spiking recovery in camel milk, cow milk and goat milk with satisfactory recoveries, which demonstrated the great potential of the aptasensor for further application in real food samples, and also suggested that MOF-235 can be used as a potential universal platform to build a sensitive detection platform for other targets.

Abstract
A novel 3D bio-printing vascular microtissue biosensor was developed to detect fish parvalbumin quickly. The graphite rod electrode was modified with gold and copper organic framework (Cu-MOF) to improve the sensor properties. Polydopamine-modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes (PDA-MWCNT) were mixed with gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) to prepare a conductive hydrogel. The conductive hydrogel was mixed with mast cells and endothelial cells to produce a bio-ink for 3D bioprinting. High throughput and standardized preparation of vascular microtissue was performed by stereolithography 3D bioprinting. The vascular microtissue was immobilized on the modified electrode to construct the microtissue sensor. The biosensor's peak current was positively correlated with the fish parvalbumin concentration, and the detection linear concentration range was 0.1 ∼ 2.5 μg/mL. The standard curve equation was IDPV(μA) = 31.30 + 5.46 CPV(μg/mL), the correlation coefficient R2 was 0.990 (n = 5), and the detection limit was 0.065 μg/mL. These indicated a biomimetic microtissue sensor detecting fish parvalbumin has been successfully constructed.

Abstract
Phytosterols (PSs), a class of naturally occurring bioactive lipid compounds, have been found to possess a significant cholesterol-lowering effect. In developing countries, the consumption of rapeseed oil is the primary pathway of PS intake for the general population. However, developing low-cost, real-time, and high-throughput screening techniques for PSs remains a challenge. Here, a Cu-based nanocomposite CuOx@C was synthesized via a simple method of the calcination of HKUST-1 and systematically characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The CuOx@C demonstrated excellent peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity, functioning as a peroxidase mimic to facilitate the catalysis of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into its oxidized form (oxTMB), thereby initiating a discernible color response. On the basis of this discovery, a CuOx@C-based colorimetric method for detecting total sterols in rapeseed was successfully constructed via cascade reactions. After optimizing the conditions, the high-throughput screening of total sterols in rapeseed could be completed in only 21 min, which significantly facilitated the sensing of PSs. A linear range of 0.6-6 mg/g was achieved for the detection of total sterols in rapeseed samples, thereby satisfying the requirements for detection. In addition, due to the high stability of CuOx@C and the specificity of cholesterol oxidase, the developed method had excellent stability and selectivity toward PSs, indicating that this work has huge prospects for commercial application. This innovative work overcomes the limitation of the instrumental method and provides a portable and reliable tool for total sterols detection. It can also facilitate the development of oilseeds with a high content of PSs.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of cinnamon essential oil (CEO)-loaded metal-organic frameworks (CEO@MOF) on the properties of gelatin/pullulan (Gel/Pull)-based composite films (Gel/Pull-based films). The incorporation of CEO@MOF into Gel/Pull-based films demonstrated significant antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, S. enterica, E. coli, and L. monocytogenes. Additionally, CEO@MOF integrated film exhibited a 98.16 % ABTS radical scavenging, with no significant change in the mechanical properties of the neat Gel/Pull film. The UV blocking efficiency of the composite films increased significantly from 81.38 to 99.56 % at 280 nm with the addition of 3 wt% CEO@MOF. Additionally, Gel/Pull/CEO@MOF films effectively extended the shelf life of meat preserved at 4 °C by reducing moisture loss by 3.35 %, maintaining the pH within the threshold limit (6.2), and inhibiting bacterial growth by 99.9 %. These results propose that CEO@MOF has significant potential as an effective additive in active packaging to improve shelf life and food safety.

Abstract
The preparation of cobalt-based nanozymes with high oxidase-like activity still needs more efforts. In this paper, we report the synthesis of a CoO/Co-tryptophan-functional graphene quantum dot hybrid (CoO/Co-Try-GQD). Firstly, cobalt ions coordinate with the indole nitrogen on Try-GQD to form a complex, followed by thermal reduction and oxidation. The resulting hybrid presents a three-dimensional network structure, and CoO/Co nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the graphene sheet with an average size of 10 ± 0.24 nm. This unique structure improved the oxidase-like activity of the hybrid, enabling it to catalyze the oxidation of colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to rapidly produce deep blue ox-TMB with a strong absorbance at 652 nm (A652). A colorimetric method was developed for the highly sensitive determination of L-cysteine (L-cys) based on the inhibition of the hybrid's oxidase-like activity and low A652 caused by the binding of L-cys with Co atoms on CoO/Co via the Co-S bond. The A652 linearly decreased with increasing L-cys concentration in the range of 0.05-2 μM, and the detection limit was 0.032 μM. Further, the established method has been successfully applied to the determination of L-cys in milk.

Abstract
Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs), a class of crystalline microporous materials have been into research limelight lately due to their commendable physio-chemical properties and easy fabrication methods. They have enormous surface area which can be a working ground for innumerable molecule adhesions and site for potential sensor matrices. Their biocompatibility makes them valuable for in vitro detection systems but a compromised conductivity requires a lot of surface engineering of these molecules for their usage in electrochemical biosensors. However, they are not just restricted to a single type of transduction system rather can also be modified to achieve feat as optical (colorimetry, luminescence) and electro-luminescent biosensors. This review emphasizes on recent advancements in the area of MOF-based biosensors with focus on various MOF synthesis methods and their general properties along with selective attention to electrochemical, optical and opto-electrochemical hybrid biosensors. It also summarizes MOF-based biosensors for monitoring free radicals, metal ions, small molecules, macromolecules and cells in a wide range of real matrices. Extensive tables have been included for understanding recent trends in the field of MOF-composite probe fabrication. The article sums up the future scope of these materials in the field of biosensors and enlightens the reader with recent trends for future research scope.

Abstract
In this work, CuO/Fe2O3 nanozymes with high peroxidase-like activity were synthesized by using hydrothermal and calcination methods. The high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) proved that the heterogeneous interface of CuO/Fe2O3 was the main reason for the high enzyme-like activity. Strong interactions of CuO and Fe2O3 were successfully verified by X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) characterization. Experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also used to explain the increased enzyme activity. The heterogeneous interface acted as the main active center, facilitating the electron transfer from CuO to Fe2O3. A colorimetric and intelligent sensing system was constructed based on deep learning. Using the peroxidase-like activity of CuO/Fe2O3, a platform for glufosinate pesticides and chlortetracycline hydrochloride (CTC) with the signal "on-off-on" changes were established. The limit of detection (LOD) of glufosinate and CTC was 28 and 0.69 μM, respectively. It was successfully applied in the detection of environmental water and soil. This study can provide an intelligent detection method for environmental monitoring.

Abstract
We demonstrate a new strategy of PEGylation over core-shell MOFs of HKUST-1 and Cu-MOF-2 by a solvothermal method. The novel synthesized PEGylated core-shell MOFs has synergistic enhancement in terms of physicochemical and biological properties. FTIR spectroscopy and XRD analysis described the bonding characteristics of the double-shelled-core MOFs PEG@HKUST-1@CuMOF-2 and PEG@CuMOF-2@HKUST-1. XPS and EDAX spectroscopy confirmed the structural features of the PEG@core-shell MOFs. The as-synthesized PEG-modified core-shell MOFs showed a readily identifiable morphology with a reduction in particle size. The significant observation from SEM and TEM was that agglomeration disappeared completely, and the morphology of individual core-shell MOFs was clearly revealed. BET analysis provided the surface characteristics of MOF compounds. The chemical states of frameworks were established by XPS. The designed PEG-modified copper MOFs were evaluated for their activity against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis), Gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae) bacterial species and activity against fungal species (Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans). This research work highlights a facile and synergistic approach to design promising biocompatible nano-dimensional core-shell MOFs for biological applications.

Monodisperse-porous, polydopamine and manganese oxide coated, core-shell type, magnetic SiO2 (MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2) microspheres 6.4 μm in size were synthesized for the first time, using magnetic, monodisperse-porous SiO2 (MagSiO2) microspheres 6.2 μm in size as the starting material. MagSiO2 microspheres were obtained by a recently developed method namely "staged shape templated hydrolysis and condensation protocol". In the synthesis, MagSiO2 microspheres were consecutively coated by polydopamine (PDA) and then by a MnO2 layer in the aqueous medium. The pore volume and the specific surface area of monodisperse-porous MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2 microspheres were measured as 0.59 cm3 g-1 and 154 m2 g-1, respectively. Their Mn and Fe contents were determined as 66 ± 1 mg g-1 and 165 ± 5 mg g-1 respectively. MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2 microspheres exhibited multimodal enzyme mimetic behavior with highly superior catalase-like, oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities. The effective production of singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide anion (O2-*) radicals in MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2-peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system was demonstrated by ESR spectroscopy. By evaluating this property, MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2 microspheres were tried as a reusable catalyst for dye removal via peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation in batch experiments for the first time. The degradation runs were made with, rhodamine B (Rh B), methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) as the pollutant. The core-shell type design allowing the deposition of porous MnO2 layer onto a large surface area provided very fast, instant removals with all dyes, via both physical adsorption and degradation via PMS activation. In the reusability experiments, the removal yields of MO and Rh B decreased 1.8% and 8.9% over five consecutive runs in batch fashion. MagSiO2@PDA@MnO2 microspheres exhibited very good functional and structural stability in consecutive dye degradations. No significant change was observed in Fe content of microspheres while Mn content exhibited a decrease of 7.4% w/w over 5 consecutive degradation runs.

Abstract
Facilely synthesized peroxidase-like nanozymes with high catalytic activity and stability may serve as effective biocatalysts. The present study synthesizes peroxidase-like nanozymes with multinuclear active sites using two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets and evaluates them for their practical applications. A simple method involving a one-pot bottom-up reflux reaction is developed for the mass synthesis of (Cu-S)n MOF 2D nanosheets, significantly increasing production quantity and reducing reaction time compared to traditional autoclave methods. The (Cu-S)n MOF 2D nanosheets with the unique coordination of Cu(I) stabilized in Cu-based MOFs demonstrate impressive activity in mimicking natural peroxidase. The active sites of the peroxidase-like activity of (Cu-S)n MOF 2D nanosheets were predominantly verified as Cu(I) rather than Cu(II) of other Cu-based MOFs. The cost-effective and long-term stability of (Cu-S)n MOF 2D nanosheets make them suitable for practical applications. Furthermore, the inhibition of the peroxidase-like activity of (Cu-S)n MOF nanosheets by glutathione (GSH) could provide a simple strategy for colorimetric detection of GSH against other amino acids. This work remarkably extends the utilization of (Cu-S)n MOF 2D nanosheets in biosensing, revealing the potential for 2D (Cu-S)n MOFs.

Abstract
Innovative active and pH-colorimetric composite films were fabricated from gelatin/poly(vinyl alcohol) (Gel/PVA) integrated with copper-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) and red cabbage anthocyanin (RCA). The incorporation of Cu-MOFs improved the tensile strength, water resistance, and UV shielding properties of the developed composite films. The addition of anthocyanins and 3 wt% Cu-MOFs endowed the polymer matrix with excellent antioxidant (100 % against ABTS and DPPH radicals) and antibacterial (against Gram-positive and Gram-negative foodborne pathogenic bacteria) functions. The fabricated composite films exhibited significant color change at alkaline conditions of pH 7-12 and a marked color change upon exposure to ammonia. The designed indicator films used for shrimp freshness tracking and a visual color change from pink (for fresh shrimp) to green (for spoiled shrimp) was observed during storage at 28 °C for 24 h. The potential applications of the engineered composite films were studied by shrimp packaging, and the quality parameters of packaged samples were monitored during storage. The synergistic effects of adding anthocyanins and MOF nanostructures works for better product freshness preservation and responds well to shrimp spoilage level, introducing novel active and intelligent packaging options for practical smart packaging applications.

Abstract
The devising and development of numerous enzyme mimics, particularly nanoparticles and nanomaterials (nanozymes), have been sparked by the inherent limitations imposed by natural enzymes. Peroxidase is one of the enzymes that is extensively utilized in commercial, medical, and biological applications because of its outstanding substrate selectivity. Herein, we present palladium nanoparticles grafted on Artocarpus heterophyllus (jackfruit) seed-derived biochar (BC-AHE@Pd) as a novel nanozyme to imitate peroxidase activity en route to the rapid and colorimetric detection of H2O2, exploiting o-phenylenediamine as a peroxidase substrate. The biogenically generated BC-AHE@Pd nanocatalyst was synthesized utilizing Artocarpus heterophyllus seed extract as the reducing agent for nanoparticle formation, while the residue became the source for biochar. Various analytical techniques like FT-IR, GC-MS, FE-SEM, EDS, TEM, SAED pattern, p-XRD, and ICP-OES, were used to characterize the BC-AHE@Pd nanocatalyst. The intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of the BC-AHE@Pd nanocatalyst was extended as a prospective nanosensor for the estimation of the biomolecules glucose and glutathione. Moreover, the BC-AHE@Pd nanocatalyst showed recyclability up to three recycles without any significant loss in activity.

Abstract
Microwave ablation (MWA) is a promising minimally invasive therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the efficiency of MWA in treating HCC is evidently limited by the incomplete ablation of large tumors and tumors in high-risk locations. Here we designed an iron-based metal-organic framework nanomedicine (PFP-Apa-MOF) by loading perfluoropentane (PFP) and apatinib (Apa). After being absorbed by HCC, iron could induce ferroptosis. PFP could be activated into bubbles and act as an ultrasound agent for detecting the ablation margin. As an effective antiangiogenic drug, Apa could inhibit tumor residual growth after MWA. The high efficiency of PFP-Apa-MOF was fully demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that MWA combined with PFP-Apa-MOF clearly enhanced the ablation efficiency, leading to apparent tumor inhibition, and increased tumor apoptosis and lipid peroxide. PFP-Apa-MOF could play a valuable role in enhancing MWA to achieve better therapeutic efficacy in HCC.

Abstract
Dysfunction of intracellular proteins is frequently associated with various diseases, such as cancer. The exogenous proteins in cells are usually assembled with specific configurations due to physiological confinement/crowding to exhibit novel features in the protein structure, folding or conformational stability, distinguished with their behaviors in buffer solutions. Here, we synthesized exogenous proteins under confined/crowded conditions, to explore protein activity within cells. The findings suggested that the confinement and crowding effects on protein activity are heterogeneous; they showed an inhibitory effect on HRP by decreasing Km from ∼9.5- and ∼21.7-fold and Vmax from ∼6.8- and ∼20.2-fold lower than that of dilute solutions. Interestingly, the effects on Cyt C seem to be more complicated, and crowding exerts a positive effect by increasing Km ∼ 3.6-fold and Vmax ∼ 1.5-fold higher than that of dilute solutions; however, confinement exhibits a negative effect by decreasing Km ∼2.0 and Vmax ∼8.3 times. Additionally, in contrast to traditional nanoparticle-based confinement models, we synthesized a biodegradable nanoparticle to mimic the confined space, and the biggest advantage of this novel model is that the particles can be degraded and thus it can provide more intuitive observations of the properties of the target proteins under confinement and after release. Furthermore, we also evaluated protein activity in different cellular environments, indicating that the exogenous protein activity was closely related to the crowdedness of cellular environments, and the inhibition of protein activity in MDA-MB-231 cancer cells was more obvious than in HEK293 normal cells. Finally, SAXS analysis revealed the correlation between the protein conformation and the different environments. Our work will provide a unique method for precisely assessing whether the target cellular environments are native matrix in which specific exogenous protein drugs are delivered to function or whether they display a therapeutic role, which is of great significance for screening and development of new drugs.

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
Diabetic wound healing remains as a serious challenge for medical circles that required continuous monitoring and effective management. Herein, the glucose oxidase/carbon dots@copper-metal-organic framework-based nanofibers (GOx/CDs@MOF NFs) were proposed as a multifunctional wound dressing, aiming to visually monitor wound pH and inhibit bacterial infection. In the diabetic wound microenvironment, the GOx/CDs@MOF NFs could convert endogenous glucose into hydroxyl radial (•OH) through the cascade catalytic reaction. In vivo and vitro experimental results confirmed that the GOx/CDs@MOF NFs could efficiently kill bacteria and promote wound healing. Additionally, CDs as a pH fluorescent indicator endowed GOx/CDs@MOF NFs with sensitive and reversible fluorescent sensing behavior to wound pH, and these visual images could also be captured by smartphones and transformed into RGB color mode (red, green, blue) values, allowing for onsite evaluation of the wound status. This multifunctional wound dressing provides a smart and effective solution for diabetic wound management and takes an immeasurable step toward the development of the next generation of digitally visualized wound dressings.

Abstract
Fighting against bacterial infection and accelerating wound healing remain important and challenging in infected wound care. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received much attention for their optimized and enhanced catalytic performance in different dimensions of these challenges. The size and morphology of nanomaterials are important in their physiochemical properties and thereby their biological functions. Enzyme-mimicking catalysts, based on MOFs of different dimensions, display varying degrees of peroxidase (POD)-like activity toward hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) decomposition into toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for bacterial inhibition and accelerating wound healing. In this study, we investigated the two most studied representatives of copper-based MOFs (Cu-MOFs), three-dimensional (3D) HKUST-1 and two-dimensional (2D) Cu-TCPP, for antibacterial therapy. HKUST-1, with a uniform and octahedral 3D structure, showed higher POD-like activity, resulting in H2O2 decomposition for •OH generation rather than Cu-TCPP. Because of the efficient generation of toxic •OH, both Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus could be eliminated under a lower concentration of H2O2. Animal experiments indicated that the as-prepared HKUST-1 effectively accelerated wound healing with good biocompatibility. These results reveal the multivariate dimensions of Cu-MOFs with high POD-like activity, providing good potential for further stimulation of specific bacterial binding therapies in the future.

Abstract
In this work, metal-organic framework MIL-101(Cr) with regular morphology, stable structure, and good dispersion was prepared by the hydrothermal method. MIL-101(Cr) has two different sizes of pores, but after TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were in situ prepared, the two pores disappear. The result demonstrates that TiO2 NPs were located in the pores of MIL-101(Cr). TiO2-decorated MIL-101(Cr) forms an inside type II heterojunction and the band gap energy is narrowed, which can promote electron-hole separation and enhance the light absorption. Therefore, the heterojunction shows a high visible light-induced peroxidase-like activity. Kinetic studies exhibit that the K m value of TiO2-in-MIL-101(Cr) to TMB is 0.17 mM, and the affinity of TiO2-in-MIL-101(Cr) is higher than that of natural horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Then, a "turn-on" colorimetric assay based on TiO2-in-MIL-101(Cr) was constructed for the detection of blood glucose. The detection range is 1-100 μM (R 2 = 0.9950) with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.17 μM. Compared with the clinical method, the constructed colorimetric method has accurate and reliable results for the clinical detection. The anti-interference experiment confirms that the method has high selectivity to glucose.

A dual-channel probe based on copper ion-mediated metal organic framework composite for colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescence monitoring of glyphosate degradation in soil and water. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:372. [PMID: 36066687 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05473-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
A dual-channel probe was developed, based on a novel composite metal organic frameworks (ZnMOF-74@Al-MOF) for glyphosate determination through ratio fluorescence and colorimetric methods. The prepared probe can not only recognize and combine glyphosate by introducing copper ion into the MOF, but also possess peroxidase-like catalytic activity. The recognition of target glyphosate brought about changes relative to its concentration on fluorescence intensity and ultraviolet absorption. And, the high specific surface area and porosity of porphyrin MOF provides the developed probe with more response opportunities to afford a better detection performance for glyphosate. Under optimum conditions, the copper ion-mediated method exhibited good detection performance for glyphosate with low detection limits (0.070 and 0.092 μg mL-1 for fluorescence and colorimetric techniques, respectively). Furthermore, the possible mechanisms of the fluorescence quenching and the peroxidase-like catalytic of the probe were also explored. This dual-channel method was applied to monitor glyphosate degradation in environmental samples and satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of important porous, crystalline materials composed of metal ions (clusters) and organic ligands. Owing to the unique redox chemistry, photochemical and electrical property, and catalytic activity of Cu2+/+, copper-based MOFs (Cu-MOFs) have been recently and extensively explored in various biomedical fields. In this review, we first make a brief introduction to the synthesis of Cu-MOFs and their composites, and highlight the recent synthetic strategies of two most studied representatives, three-dimensional HKUST-1 and two-dimensional Cu-TCPP. The recent advances of Cu-MOFs in the applications of cancer treatment, bacterial inhibition, biosensing, biocatalysis, and wound healing are summarized and discussed. Furthermore, we propose a prospect of the future development of Cu-MOFs in biomedical fields and beyond.

Abstract
Peroxidases are present widely in microorganisms and plants, and catalyze many reactions. However, the activity of natural peroxidases is susceptible to external conditions. We prepared carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) using an environmentally friendly and simple method. These CNPs were demonstrated to possess intrinsic peroxidase-like activity. CNPs could catalyze the reaction of a peroxidase substrate, 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), in the presence of H2O2 to produce a blue solution at 652 nm. CNPs exhibited higher peroxidase activity than that of other carbon-based nanomaterials. Moreover, CNPs retained their high peroxidase activity after being reused several times. Glutathione (GSH) can change the blue color of oxidized TMB into a colorless hue at 652 nm. Based on this fact, qualitative and quantitative approaches were employed to detect GSH using a colorimetric method. This method showed a broad detection range (2.5–50 μM) with a limit of detection of 0.26 μM. This method was shown to be accurate for GSH detection in a cell culture medium compared with that using a commercial assay kit. Our findings could facilitate application of CNPs in biomedical areas. Peroxidases are present widely in microorganisms and plants, and catalyze many reactions.![]()
