Prooxidant and anti-inflammatory potential of fruit and its phytochemical characterisation by UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS.

Pro-oxidants play a crucial role in cancer by causing oxidative stress that leads to apoptosis. The present study demonstrates the prooxidant and anti-inflammatory potential of ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of fruit. Oxidation of Trolox and NADH activity indicated the pro-oxidant capacity of the extracts.

Borophene Quantum Dots as Novel Peroxidase-Mimicking Nanozyme: A Dual-Mode Assay for the Detection of Oxytetracycline and Tetracycline Antibiotics.

The greater advantages and wide applications of zero-dimensional nanodots inspire researchers to develop new materials. Therefore, novel borophene quantum dots (QDs) were prepared by a hydrothermal liquid exfoliation technique using water medium. The borophene QDs proved to be highly stable in water medium for more than 120 days.

Photoenhanced intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of a metal-free biocompatible borophene photonanozyme for colorimetric sensor assay of dopamine biomolecule.

Photonanozymes are novel enzyme-mimicking nanomaterials with light-harvesting capacity and have widespread applications in many areas including biosensing, biomedicine, environmental applications, energy, Herein, we introduce freestanding metal-free biocompitable borophene nanosheets (BNSs) exhibiting excellent photoresponsive peroxidase-like activity for biosensing applications. The photo-enhanced peroxidase-like activity of BNSs photonanozyme was indicated to be due to its band gap energy being comparable to the energy of visible light.
