Graphene (GR) is one of the most promising candidates for utilization in the electroanalytical field because of its superior electrocatalytic activity, excellent electronic conductivity, and high chemical stability. However, the GR sheets usually tend to stack together with π-π interaction. The spontaneous stacking leads to the aggregation of the GR sheets and imposes a negative feedback in the surface area of the GR, which obviously limits its electrochemical application. In this study, nitrogen-doped porous GR (NPGR) with different pore sizes is prepared by using silica (SiO) as a template. The NPGR exhibits high surface area and porous structure, fulfilling the requirement for supporting materials. Being a support, the structural uniqueness and N dopants of NPGR facilitate the deposition of Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs). The Pt NPs/NPGR composites integrate the structural properties of NPGR and catalytic properties of Pt NPs. A selective and sensitive electrochemical sensor was successfully developed for sensitive determination of Tadalafil (TAD), showing a concentration range of 1.30-488.9μM and limit of detection of 0.268μM.

High-performance electrocatalysts are highly concerned in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) related energy applications. However, facile synthesis of hierarchically porous structures with highly exposed active sites and improved mass transfer is challenging. Herein, we develop a novel assembly-foaming strategy for synthesizing hierarchically porous nitrogen-doped carbon supported single-atom iron catalysts.

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with high activity and efficient atom utilization for oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs) are imperative for rechargeable Zinc-air batteries (ZABs). However, it is still a prominent challenge to construct a noble-metal-free SAC with low cost but high efficiency. Herein, a novel nitrogen-doped graphene (NrGO) based SAC, immobilized with atomically dispersed single cobalt (Co) atoms (Co-NrGO-SAC), is reported for ORRs.

The elementary mechanism and site studies of nanozyme-based inhibition reactions are ambiguous and urgently require advanced nanozymes as mediators to elucidate the inhibition effect. To this end, we develop a class of nanozymes featuring single Cu-N catalytic configurations and B-O sites as binding configurations on a porous nitrogen-doped carbon substrate (B/Cu) for inducing modulable inhibition transfer at the atomic level. The full redistribution of electrons across the Cu-N sites, induced by B-O sites incorporation, yields B/Cu with enhanced peroxidase-like activity versus Cu.

Biomimetic calcification is a micro-crystallization process that mimics the natural biomineralization process, where biomacromolecules regulate the formation of inorganic minerals. In this study, it is presented that a protein-assisted biomimetic calcification method for the in situ synthesis of nitrogen-doped metal-organic framework (MOF) materials. A series of unique core-shell structures are created by utilizing proteins as templates and guiding agents in the nucleation step, creating ideal conditions for shell growth.
