Convenient self-assembled formation of dual-functional Ag/MXene nanozymes for efficient chemiluminescence sensing.

MXenes are attracting increasing interest as a low-cost carrier for the development of nanozymes with enhanced peroxidase or oxidase-like activity. In this work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized and loaded on TiC MXene nanosheets (denoted as Ag/MXene) by a simple method, using MXene as a support and reducing agent. The synthesized Ag/MXene composites exhibited satisfactory stability and the peroxidase activity was higher than that of the single components.

Based on Fe and Ni prepared organic colloidal materials as efficient oxide nanozymes for chemiluminescence detection of GSH and Hg(II) ions.

Metal-organic gels (MOGs) are a type of metal-organic colloid material with a large specific surface area, loose porous structure, and open metal active sites. In this work, FeNi-MOGs were synthesized by the simple one-step static method, using Fe(III) and Ni(II) as the central metal ions and terephthalic acid as the organic ligand. The prepared FeNi-MOGs could effectively catalyze the chemiluminescence of luminol without the involvement of HO, which exhibited good catalytic activity.
