Revealing the relationship between composition and enzyme-like activities is essential for the rational designs of nanozymes and related assays with improved performances. Here, a series of Fe-N co-doped porous carbon (Fe-N-C) nanozymes containing different Fe contents have been successfully prepared by facilely pyrolyzing hemin trapped zeolitic-imidazolate-frameworks (Hemin@ZIF-8). The special doping agent hemin will endow Fe-N-C with exceptionally high peroxidase-mimetic activities due to the hierarchically porous structure, high specific surface area, and high dispersed Fe-N x sites. Notably, the optimal Fe 55 -N-C nanozymes are used to detect bio-enzymes, by taking alkaline phosphatase (ALP) as a model, based on the inhibition of nanozymatic activity by ascorbic acid (AA). A linear activity range of 0.05–20 U/L is obtained with a low detection limit of 0.03 U/L, which is superior to the most published optical ALP assays. This work provides not only a new method for the design of the transition metal-N-C nanozyme with enhanced peroxidase-like activity but also a promising strategy for the detection of ascorbic acid-generating bio-enzymes with the assistance of specific substrates.

Numerous ratiometric fluorescence nanozyme sensors are developed, though, fluorescence-scattering ratiometric sensors based on nanozymes are hardly reported. First-order scattering (FOS) could be quenched due to inner filter effect of quenchers on scattering signals. Meanwhile, Second-order scattering (SOS) depended on FOS. Based on the principle, we designed a novel nanozyme sensor by coupling fluorescence (FL) and SOS. Specifically, Fe-N-C nanozyme (Fe-HCNP) was fabricated by doping Fe into carbon-nitrogen polymers via formamide condensations . Fe-HCNP possessed robust oxidase-like activity, effectively transforming O 2 into ·O 2 - and ·OH. Then, Fe-HCNP and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) severed as a hybrid system to construct an FL-SOS ratiometric sensor for ascorbic acid (AA). Fe-HCNP with large size possessed strong SOS. After being added into the Fe-HCNP/OPD system, AA could fast be oxidized to dehydroascorbic acid (DAA) due to Fe-HCNP as oxidase mimics. Subsequently, fluorescent quinoxaline derivative (DFQ) was produced after condensation reactions between DAA and OPD, causing an increase in fluorescence. Meanwhile, the intensity of FOS was reduced because FOS peaks of Fe-HCNP overlapped absorption bands of DFQ, causing a decrease in SOS. The FL-SOS ratiometric sensor for AA showed outstanding advantages of high specificity and fast. Overall, this work provided a new strategy for nanozyme ratiometric sensors.

Phenols are harmful to the human body and the environment. Since there are a variety of phenols in actual samples, this requires a sensor which possesses the ability to simultaneously distinguish them. Herein, we report a colorimetric sensor array, which uses two nanozymes (Fe–N–C nanozymes and Cu–N–C nanozymes) as electronic tongues for fingerprint identification of six phenols (2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-Tri), 4-nitrophenol (P-np), phenol (Phe), 3-chlorophenol (3-CP), 4-chlorophenol (4-CP), and o-nitrophenol (O-np)) in the environment. Nanozymes catalyzed the reaction of hydrogen peroxide, different phenols and 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP) to produce different color variations. These signal changes as fingerprints encouraged us to develop a pattern recognition method for the identification of phenols by linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The six phenols at 50 nM have their own response patterns, respectively. Surprisingly, this sensor array had distinguished the six phenols in actual samples successfully.

For the visual detection of four organophosphorus pesticides (OPs), a colorimetric aptasensor was developed based on aptamer-mediated bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) nano-polymers. Fe-Co magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and Fe-N-C nanozymes were prepared based on pyrolytic reaction, and were labeled with broad spectrum aptamers and complementary chains of organophosphorus pesticides respectively. The hybridization of aptamers and complementary chains led to the formation of nano-polymers. In the presence of target pesticides, they competed with complementary chains for aptamers on Fe-Co MNPs, resulting in a large number of Fe-N-C nanozymes signal labels being released into the supernatant. Fe-N-C nanozymes showed similar activity to peroxidase and catalyzed the 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine-hydrogen peroxide (TMB-H 2 O 2 ) color system to turn the solution blue-green under mild conditions. The magnetic probes had good selectivity and sensitivity, and were easily separated by magnetic absorption . The sensor functioned well under optimal conditions, demonstrating good stability and specificity for four pesticides: phorate, profenofos , isocarbophos and omethoate, and the detection limits of four pesticides were as low as 0.16 ng/mL, 0.16 ng/mL, 0.03 ng/mL and 1.6 ng/mL respectively, and the recovery rate of OPs residue in vegetable samples was satisfactory. The work described here provided a simple, rapid and sensitive way to construct a biosensor .

As a popular controllable-released carrier, intelligent hydrogels are often used in drug delivery and disease therapeutics. Meanwhile, benefit from the mimic-enzyme activity performance, Fe–N–C nanozymes have been widely used in sensing and analysis. However, the combination of intelligent hydrogels with specific degradability and Fe–N–C nanozymes with enhanced activity in one system to achieve controllable and sensitive detection is rare. Herein, we combine intelligent hydrogel with mimic peroxidase activity enhanced Fe–N–C nanozymes to construct a ratiometric fluorescence probe for sensitive detection of hyaluronidase (HAase). The modification of copper ions has been proved to enhance the mimic enzyme activity of Fe–N–C nanozymes greatly. Cu 2+ modified Fe–N–C nanozymes were embedded in hyaluronic acid hydrogel. In the presence of HAase, the HA hydrogel structure was hydrolyzed and released Cu 2+ -Fe-N-C nanozymes gradually. The released Cu 2+ -Fe-N-C nanozymes are used to catalyze the hydrogen peroxide system so that o-phenylenediamine is oxidized to orange fluorescent 2, 3-diaminophenolazine (DAP). Due to the electrostatic interaction , the fluorescence resonance energy transfer can occur between the negatively charged copper nanoclusters emitted by 430 nm and the positively charged DAP emitted by 560 nm. The activity of HAase was monitored according to the ratio of fluorescence intensity at 560 nm and 430 nm (F560/F430). The linear range of this method is 0–10.0 U/ml and the detection limit is 0.43 U/mL (S/N = 3). This strategy has been further applied to biological samples successfully.
