The issue of food safety poses a significant threat to human health. The colorimetric sensing method offers a highly sensitive response, visualization, and easy operation, making it highly promising for applications in the field of bioanalysis. FeO nanomaterials not only possess the advantages of a straightforward preparation method, customizable functionalities, and facile surface modification, but also exhibit excellent peroxidase activity. The colorimetric biosensor based on a FeO nanozyme is highly sensitive and has a low detection limit, making it widely recognized in the field of food safety detection. The review provides a summary of synthesis methods for FeO nanozymes and discusses the effects of different synthesis methods on their structures. Additionally, the catalytic mechanism of the FeO nanozyme and the influence of particle size, structure, pH, metal doping, and surface modifications on the peroxide activity are analyzed. Finally, we introduce the application of colorimetric sensors based on FeO nanozymes in detecting antioxidants, heavy metal ions, pesticides, antibiotics, foodborne pathogen toxins, and other food additives and contaminants. This review is expected to provide reference and inspiration for future research on food safety detection through colorimetric sensors based on FeO nanozymes.

Although the current nanozymes, such as FeO nanoparticles, exhibit biocatalytic activities, they dramatically differ from natural enzymes, lacking a degradable organic framework and an intrinsically flexible structure. Single-chain folding of a synthetic polypeptide by metal coordination can mimic metalloproteins more similarly. A triblock PEG-polypeptide copolymer, poly(ethylene glycol)--poly(but-3-yn-1-yl glutamate)--poly(-butyl glutamate) [EG(Glu-yne)(Glu-tBu)], was synthesized by NCA polymerization.

The recent discovery of a new class of nanomaterials called nanozymes, which have the action of enzymes and are thus of tremendous significance, has altered our understanding of these previously believed to be biologically inert nanomaterials. As a significant and exciting class of synthetic enzymes, nanozymes have distinct advantages over natural enzymes. They are less expensive, more stable, and easier to work with and store, making them a viable substitute.

Humification offers a promising avenue for sequestering dissolved organic carbon while facilitating environmental cleanup. In this study, CuMgFe layered double oxides (LDO) were applied as a catalyst to replace conventional enzymes, such as laccase, thereby enhancing the in vitro polyphenol-Maillard humification reaction. CuMgFe LDO was synthesized through calcination of CuMgFe layered double hydroxides (LDH) at 500 °C for 5 h.

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have garnered significant attention as a promising platform for reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent disease treatment, owing to their remarkable biocompatibility and Fenton catalytic activity. However, the low catalytic activity of IONPs is a major hurdle in their clinical translation. To overcome this challenge, IONPs of different compositions are examined for their Fenton reaction under pharmacologically relevant conditions.

Surface-Mediated Production of Complexed •OH Radicals and FeO Species as a Mechanism for Iron Oxide Peroxidase-Like Nanozymes.

Fe O nanoparticles (NPs) with intrinsic peroxidase-like properties have attracted significant interest, although limited information is available on the definite catalytic mechanism. Here, it is shown that both complexed hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and high-valent FeO species are attributed primarily to the peroxidase-like catalytic activity of Fe O NPs under acid conditions rather than only being caused by free •OH radicals generated through the iron-driven Fenton/Haber-Weiss reactions as previously thought. The low energy barrier of OO bond dissociation of H O /•OOH (0.
