The application of ultrasound to a solution can induce cavitional phenomena and generate high localised temperatures and pressures. These are dependent of the frequency used and have enabled ultrasound application in areas such as synthetic, green and food chemistry. High frequency (100kHz to 1MHz) in particular is promising in food chemistry as a means to inactivate enzymes, replacing the need to use periods of high temperature. A plant enzyme, horseradish peroxidase, was studied using time-resolved fluorescence techniques as a means to assess the effect of high frequency (378kHz and 583kHz) ultrasound treatment at equivalent acoustic powers. This uncovered the fluorescence emission from a newly formed species, attributed to the formation of di-tyrosine within the horseradish peroxidase structure caused by auto-oxidation, and linked to enzyme inactivation.

The integration of a photosensitive gate into an organic electrochemical transistor has currently emerged as a promising route for biological sensing. However, the modification of the photosensitive gate always involves complex processes, and the degradation of sensitivity of the functional materials under illumination will significantly decrease the stability of the devices. Herein, we designed an organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) biosensor employing horseradish peroxidase (HRP)@glucose oxidase (GOx)/Pt/n-Si as the photosensitive gate based on the "shadow effect".

On account of the existence of antibiotic resistance, the wound healing of pathogenic infection is still a challenge in modern society. A desirable wound dressing should own the abilities of adhesiveness, hemostasis and good mechanical property, meanwhile the property of eliminating bacteria without side effects is also highly needed. In this work, we established a kind of hydrogel based on carboxymethyl cellulose-graft-tyramine (CMC-Ty) and MXene (TiCT) through employing HO/HRP (horseradish peroxidase) as the initiator, then the as-prepared hydrogel (named CMC-Ty/MXene) was immersed in tannic acid (TA) solution, and this TA-treated hydrogel was called CMC-Ty/MXene+TA.

We propose a hybrid electrocatalytic-bioelectrocatalytic reaction cascade integrated on a gas diffusion electrode for CO2 reduction under selective formation of methanol. Ag-Bi2O3 selectively reduces gaseous CO2 to formate at neutral pH conditions. A subsequent enzymatic cascade comprising formaldehyde dehydro-genase and alcohol dehydrogenase, which are both nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent, further reduce formate sequentially to formaldehyde and methanol.

In medical and biomedical fields, enzyme-mimetic nanomaterials have garnered significant interest as efficacious signal enhancers for biocatalyst-linked immunosorbent assays (BLISA). Despite the burgeoning enthusiasm, engineering artificial biocatalysts that exhibit both exceptional catalytic proficiency and pronounced colorimetric signal output remains a formidable challenge. Inspired by the heme structures and biocatalytic activities of horseradish peroxidase, we introduce the synthesis of vanadium single-atoms (SAV) coordinated artificial peroxidases as BLISA for highly sensitive and selective carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) immunoassay.
