Immobilized enzymes play a crucial role in analytical sensing due to their exceptional stability and considerable commercial importance. In this study, a stable Zr-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66-NH) was prepared as an immobilization platform for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) through covalent binding. HRP@UiO-66-NH retained 75% of its activity after 10 cycles. Subsequently, a colorimetric/fluorometric dual-mode sensing strategy using HRP@UiO-66-NH was developed for nitrite detection. HRP@UiO-66-NH facilitated the transformation of the non-colored compound 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into its blue oxidized form. When nitrite is added, oxidized TMB (ox-TMB) specifically engaged with nitrite (NO) to generate diazotized TMB, leading to a color shift from blue to yellow. Concurrently, NO reacted with the amino groups of HRP@UiO-66-NH, forming diazonium compounds and suppressing the fluorescence of HRP@UiO-66-NH. The limits of detection were 0.21 μM and 0.19 μM for the colorimetric and fluorometric strategies, respectively. Furthermore, a portable kit for detecting nitrite was created by integrating gelatin with HRP@UiO-66-NH. The kit could visually identify nitrite from 10-400 μM in colorimetric mode and 0-400 μM in fluorometric mode. This method provides an innovative approach for nitrite sensing, paving the way for new research into multifunctional immobilized enzymes and their potential uses in biochemical sensing applications.

Methods based on enzyme labelling strategies have been widely developed for capacitance immunoassays, but most suffer from low sensitivity and are unfavorable for routine use in the early stages of diagnostics. Herein, we designed a highly efficient capacitance immunosensing method for the low-abundance neuroblastoma biomarker neuron-specific enolase (NSE) using an interdigitated micro-comb electrode. Initially, monoclonal mouse anti-human NSE capture antibodies were immobilized on the interdigitated gold electrodes using bovine serum albumin.

Recently, multi-enzyme cascade catalysis has attracted increasing attention due to the advantages of integrating multiple enzymes, few side reactions and high catalytic efficiency. Herein, a novel dual-enzyme cascade system (GOx-FMt-HRP) was developed through cofactor-directed orientational co-immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) onto functional montmorillonite (FMt). The presented method realizes the reconstitution of cofactors and apo-enzymes (enzymes without cofactors), which enables enzymes to be immobilized in specific orientations on the support, thereby effectively reducing changes in their conformation.

The treatment of diabetic wounds with bacterial infection is a major challenge in the medical field. Microenvironment-responsive hydrogel dressings have shown great advantages, and photothermal antibacterial therapy is a potential antimicrobial strategy to avoid the generation of resistant bacteria. In this work, a glucose-triggered near-infrared (NIR)-responsive photothermal antibacterial hydrogel was designed and named GOGD based on a cascade reaction of glucose oxidation and polyphenol polymerization.
