- A portable system was developed to measure glucose levels using three different methods: quantitative analysis through UV-Vis/MD, on-site analysis with a mobile phone RGB, and semi-quantitative analysis with a drip plate.
- The new approach offers improved detection limits (0.03 μM) and faster detection times (12 minutes) compared to existing methods, providing a cost-effective and easy-to-use solution for glucose monitoring.
Article Abstract
The blood glucose concentration in aquatic organisms, a crucial indicator reflecting their health status, holds significant importance for detecting glucose levels in serum in terms of processing and quality monitoring. In this study, a novel POD biomimetic enzyme (p-BEs) with horseradish peroxidase catalytic properties was designed, optimized, and its mechanism was discussed in detail. Based on this, a portable system has been developed capable of determining glucose levels in three ways: quantitatively analyzed through UV-Vis/MD, quantitatively analyzed on-site using a mobile phone RGB, and semi-quantitatively analyzed through a drip plate. Meanwhile, compared with other catalytic methods for detecting glucose, we achieved a lower limit of detection (0.03 μM) and shorter detection time (12 min), with high catalytic activity. This study provides new insights into the design of efficient and reliable cascade catalytic systems responsive to glucose, offering a low-cost, simplicity of operation method for glucose detection.

Biomimetic bioreactor for potentiated uricase replacement therapy in hyperuricemia and gout.
Front Bioeng Biotechnol

Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University, Institute of Clinical Immunology, Academy of Orthopedics, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.
Introduction: Uricase replacement therapy is a promising approach for managing hyperuricemia and gout but is hindered by challenges such as short blood circulation time, reduced catalytic activity, and excessive hydrogen peroxide (HO) production. These limitations necessitate innovative strategies to enhance therapeutic efficacy and safety.
Methods: We designed and synthesized RBC@SeMSN@Uri, a red blood cell-coated biomimetic self-cascade bioreactor, which encapsulates uricase (Uri) and a selenium-based nano-scavenger (SeMSN) within RBC membranes.
Viral Mimetic Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles for Targeting Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2.

Purpose: Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) derived from Gram-negative bacteria naturally serve as a heterologous nano-engineering platform, functioning as effective multi-use nanovesicles for diagnostics, vaccines, and treatments against pathogens. To apply refined OMVs for human theranostic applications, we developed naturally exposed receptor-binding domain (RBD) OMVs grafted with antigen 43 as a minimal modular system targeting angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2).
Methods: We constructed -derived OMVs using the antigen 43 autotransporter system to display RBD referred to as viral mimetic Ag43β700_RBD OMVs.

Learning from nature has garnered significant attention in the scientific community for its potential to inspire creative solutions in material or catalyst design. The study reports a biomimetic single selenium (Se) site-modified carbon (C) moiety that retains the unique reactivity of selenoenzyme with peroxides, aiming to selectively catalyze the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The as-designed Se-C demonstrates nearly 100% 4-electron selectivity, evidenced by 0.

Direct methane to methanol conversion is a dream reaction in industrial chemistry, which takes inspiration from the biological methanol production catalysed by methane monooxygenase enzymes (MMOs). Over the years, extensive studies have been conducted on this topic by bioengineering the MMOs, and tailoring methods to isolate the MMOs in the active form. Similarly, remarkable achievements have been noted in other methane activation strategies such as the use of heterogeneous catalysts or molecular catalysts.

Accurate, specific, and cost-effective detection of toxic cyanogenic glycosides is crucial for ensuring biological health and food safety. In this study, a novel biosensor based on co-immobilized multi-enzyme system was constructed by artificial antibody-antigen-directed immobilization for the colorimetric detection of amygdalin through a cascade reaction catalyzed by β-glucosidase, glucose oxidase, and horseradish peroxidase. Artificial antibodies and antigens were prepared using catechol and 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde, respectively, to generate mutual affinity recognition ability for enzyme immobilization.
