Fe-Ni-MOFs with different amounts of Fe are synthesized through a two-step template etching method. Kinetic analysis indicates that Fe-Ni-MOF exhibits prominent intrinsic peroxidase-like activity, which could catalytically oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce oxidized TMB (oxTMB) with a blue color. As a peroxidase-mimicking MOF, Fe-Ni-MOF with its efficient stable catalysis properties is demonstrated to allow a sensitive colorimetric assay for Sn2+ ions. The mechanism is explored, whereby Sn2+ ions could reduce the peroxidase-like activity of Fe-Ni-MOF based on a redox interaction, making the oxTMB color lighter and decreasing the absorbance intensity at 652 nm. The linear determination of the Sn2+ ion concentration using a UV-vis spectrometer ranges from 0.01 mM to 1.0 mM and from 1.0 mM to 4.0 mM. The presented Fe-Ni-MOF-based assay of Sn2+ ions was successfully applied to real water samples.

Organicphosphorus is a ubiquitous pesticide that has potential hazards to human health and environmental well-being. Therefore, the precise identification of residues of organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) emerges as an urgent necessity. A ratiometric fluorescent sensor for the detection of OPs by leveraging the catalytic activities of Ce and Ce on the two fluorescent substrates 4-Methylumbelliferyl phosphate (4-MUP) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) correspondingly was designed.

A novel copper and iron doped containing chitosan and heparin sodium carbon dots (CS-Cu,Fe/HS) nanozyme was formulated through a single-step microwave digestion method. CS-Cu,Fe/HS exhibits excellent peroxidase (POD)-like activity and positive charge characteristics, and it can oxidize the negatively charged 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) in the presence of HO to produce a green compound (ox-ABTS). Furthermore, CS-Cu,Fe/HS enhances electron transfer and provides additional active sites through the valence state transformations of Fe/Fe and Cu/Cu.

Choline is an important molecule in monitoring food safety and infant nutrition. Here, we report Ce nanogels synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) employing Ce-coordinated acryloyl-lysine polymer brushes (Ce@SiO NGs) as highly efficient cascade nanozymes for colorimetric detection of choline. The synthesized Ce@SiO NGs demonstrated remarkable peroxidase-like activity with a porous exterior, which are essential to entrap choline oxidase (COx) to yield COx@Ce@SiO NGs and construct a cascade reaction system to detect choline.

Developing artificial enzymes based on organic molecules or polymers for reactive oxygen biocatalysis has broad applicability. Here, inspired by heme-based enzyme systems, we construct the abiological iron group metal-based polyporphyrin (Ru/Os-coordinated porphyrin-based biocatalyst, Ru/Os-PorBC) to serve as a new generation of efficient and versatile reactive oxygen species (ROS)-related biocatalyst. Due to the structural benefits, including excellent electron configuration, appropriate bandgap, and optimized adsorption and activation of reaction intermediates, Ru/Os-PorBC shows unparalleled ROS-production activities regarding maximum reaction rate and turnover numbers, which also demonstrates superior pH and temperature adaptability compared to natural enzymes.

Uniform, mesoporous copper(II) oxide nanospindles (CuO NSs) were synthesized via a method based on templated hydrothermal oxidation of copper in the presence of monodisperse poly(glycerol dimethacrylate--methacrylic acid) nanoparticles (poly(GDMA--MAA) NPs). Subsequent decoration of CuO NSs with a CaO nanoshell (CuO@CaO NSs) yielded a nanozyme capable of Cu(I)/Cu(II) redox cycling. Activation of the Cu(I)/Cu(II) cycle by exogenously generated HO from the CaO nanoshell significantly enhanced glutathione (GSH) depletion.
