Considerable attention has been focused on the application of natural cellulosic materials due to the cost-effectiveness, renewability, and biodegradability of cellulose . However, gaps between cellulose-based and petroleum-based materials still exist. In this study, a green, environmental modification method for cellulose by enzyme-initiated reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) graft polymerization was reported. First, the grafting of acryloyl chloride (AC) provided reaction sites on cellulosic fiber surfaces, followed by the enzymatic RAFT graft polymerization of acrylamide (AM). The grafting of well-controlled polyacrylamide (PAM) chains on the cellulosic material surface was verified by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the controlled grafting ratio was also estimated. The transition of wetting behaviors after the modification of AC and PAM also provided evidence for successful grafting on cellulosic materials. In addition, this method can be well applied for the preparation of various functional cellulosic materials.

The ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has highlighted that new diagnosis technologies are crucial for controlling the spread of the disease. Especially in the resources-limit region, conveniently operated detection methods such as “naked-eye” detection are urgently required that no instrument is needed. Herein, we have designed a novel and facile strategy to fabricate covalent organic framework (COF) capsules, which can be utilized to establish a new colorimetric assay for naked-eye detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Specifically, we employ the digestible ZIF-90 as the sacrificial template to prepare the hollow COF capsules for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) encapsulation. The fabricated COF capsules can provide an appropriate microenvironment for the enzyme molecules, which may improve the conformational freedom of enzymes, enhance the mass transfer, and endow the enzyme with high environmental resistance. With such design, the proposed assay exhibits outstanding analytical performance for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the linear range from 5 pM to 50 nM with a detection limit of 0.28 pM which can go parallel to qTR-PCR analysis. Our method also possesses excellent selectivity and reproducibility. Moreover, this method can also be served to analyze the clinical samples, and can successfully differentiate COVID-19 patients from healthy people, suggesting the promising potential in clinical diagnosis.

Fumonisins (FBs) exist widely in crops, foods and feeds. Consumption of FBs contaminated corn can cause oesophageal cancer. So it is necessary to develop sensitivity methods for its detection. Here, we report an enhanced assay for rapid and ultra-sensitive detection of FBs based on nanomagnetic beads (NMBs) and antibody-biotin-streptavidin-HRP. Because antibody-BNHS can bind with several number of streptavidin-HRP, the signal amplification of the catalytical oxidation of TMB was enhanced. The detection limit of sensor was down to 0.21 ng mL −1 with a linear range from 0.31 to 162.42 ng mL −1 . Since NMBs provide a nearly “in solution” reaction, they lead to a shortened reaction time (22 min) than that of flat solid-phase based traditional assay. Furthermore, the recoveries obtained by standard FBs spiked to maize samples were from 100.6 to 107.3%. This enhanced assay supplied a rapid, sensitive and reliable method for detection of FBs in maize.

Silk fibroin (SF) can be extensively utilized in biomedical areas owing to its appreciable bioactivity. In this study, biocompatible composites of SF and hydroxyapatite (HAp) were fabricated through in situ biomimetic mineralization process. Graft copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) onto SF was conducted by using the catalytic system of acetylacetone (ACAC), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), for enhancing the deposition of apatite onto the fibroin chains. Subsequently, biomimetic mineralization of the prepared fibroin-based membrane was performed in Ca/P solutions to synthesize the organized SF/HAp composites. The efficacies of graft copolymerization and biomimetic mineralization were evaluated by means of ATR-FTIR, GPC, EDS-Mapping, XRD and others. The results denoted that AA was successfully graft-copolymerized with fibroin and formed the copolymer of silk fibroin-graft-polyacrylic acid (SF-g-PAA), and the grafting percentage (GP) and grafting efficiency (GE) under the optimal condition reached to 23.2% and 29.4%, respectively. More mineral phases were detected on the surface of SF-g-PAA membrane after mineralization process when compared to that of the untreated fibroin membrane, companying with an improved mechanical property. According to MG-63 cell viability and fluorescent adhesion assays, the mineralized SF-g-PAA composite showed satisfactory biocompatibility and exceptional adhesive effects as well. The synthetized composite of SF-g-PAA/HAp can be potentially applied in the fields of bone tissue engineering.

A colorimetric method for fish freshness monitoring was developed. After coating magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticle with zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was adsorbed onto it with high efficiency due to the large surface area of ZIF-8, the mesoporous SiO 2 was further decorated onto the Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@HRP to form Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@HRP@SiO 2 nanostructure, in order to minimize the release of HRP, and enhance the stability and catalytic activity of HRP. The morphology, elemental composition, surface functional groups of Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@HRP@SiO 2 were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Hypoxanthine (HX), which formed due to the degradation of adenosine triphosphate in fish, can be oxidized by xanthine oxidase and generated H 2 O 2 intermediate. Thereafter, in the presence of H 2 O 2 , HRP within Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@HRP@SiO 2 nanostructure would catalyze the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to a blue product of TMBox, allowing an indirect colorimetric sensing of HX content. Under optimal conditions, HX was selectively and sensitively detected in the range of 0–100 μM, with a detection limit of 0.133 μM. Finally, the proposed method was applied to determine the HX content in grass carp continuously stored at 4 °C and 30 °C for 96 h.

As an important kind of environmental endocrine disruptors , 17 β -Estradiol (E2) plays a major role in affecting the growth of human including sexual characters, pregnancy system, etc. In the modern society, with the threat of abuse in breeding, it is imperative to design sensitive methods for detecting low concentration of E2 in environment. In this work, we constructed a highly sensitive and simple fluorescent aptasenor for detecting E2 via amplification of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Through the competitions between complementary strand (cmDNA) and E2 to E2 aptamer modified on magnetic beads, the unbound cmDNA would be collected and captured by polystyrene microspheres to induce HCR which brought abundant biotin sites. Subsequently, benefit from the excellent catalytic performance of streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP), the highly sensitive fluorescence signals could be obtained in low concentration of E2. Under the optimal conditions, the prospered method for E2 detection was shown a good liner range from 1 to 100 pg/mL, with the lower detecting limit of 0.2 pg/mL compared with previous work. In addition, the recovery rates tested in the real samples of milk and water were 99.20%–108.06% and 91.07%–106.13%. In all, the assay may provide a perspective way for highly sensitive detection for various contaminants in the real samples.

The demand for H2O2 restricts the wider application of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in degradation. In this work, a novel photoenzyme synergistic catalytic system was developed for high-efficiency degrading of indole in water by HRP without extra H2O2. The HRP was immobilized on CN-ZIF prepared by the combination of g-C3N4 and ZIF-8 to achieve photo-peroxidase catalyst HRP/Zn-CN-ZIF. Under visible light, photogenerated electrons and H2O2 from HRP/Zn-CN-ZIF participated in the biocatalytic cycle of HRP directly. As a result, the indole at 20 mg L−1 in water was degraded completely in 2 h by the HRP/Zn-CN-ZIF photoenzyme synergistic catalytic system without the addition of H2O2. Furthermore, HRP/Zn-CN-ZIF exhibited superior visible light absorption and charge transfer ability compared to g-C3N4. The results of the mechanism studies suggest that ·OH would play the most significant role from the HRP/Zn-CN-ZIF in indole degradation. This research provides an efficient approach for the removal of indole from water environments.

A novel smartphone-based colorimetric biosensor based on enzyme-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers was applied for ultrasensitive determination of of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). Horseradish peroxidase-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers (HRP-Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O HNFs) were facilely synthesized by a one-pot incubation using HRP and Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O as organic and inorganic components, respectively. Characterization results revealed HRP molecules were well immobilized in HRP-Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O HNFs via self-assembly. The results of smartphone-based colorimetric assay successfully demonstrated the good sensing performance of HRP-Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O HNFs. The linear detection range of H 2 O 2 was from 5 to 500 μM, and the detection limit was 0.5 μM. Further, the proposed assay showed good anti-interference ability and high sensitivity for H 2 O 2 detection owing to the high specificity of HRP and excellent accuracy of color parameters obtained by Color Detector software, respectively. In addition, HRP-Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O HNFs had desirable storage stability and reusability, and this colorimetric system can realize the H 2 O 2 detection in tap water, which indicated the good applicability of HRP-Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ⋅3H 2 O HNFs in real sample.

A well-defined functional star polymer nanoparticle was prepared using an “arm first” approach via RAFT polymerization. In this work, N-adamantylacrylamide and N-succinimidyl acrylate were copolymerized with N-isopropylacrylamide sucessfully. The obtained diblock copolymer regarded as an “arm” endowed the star polymer with multiple conjugate functions. By adjusting the amount of crosslinking agent, the size and polydispersity of the star polymer were controlled. With the star polymer as the scaffold, a sequential multi-enzyme system was constructed, where HRP was placed in the inner layer through covalent conjugation, and β-cyclodextrin-modified GOx was assembled in the outer layer through host–guest recognition. More interestingly, the activity of the enzyme modified by β-cyclodextrin was improved. In addition to the enhanced thermal stability, this multienzyme system also exhibited a reduced Km value (from 2.18 mM to 0.39 mM) and an excellent substrate affinity. The specificity constant (Kcat/Km) for GOx in the star polymer@HRP@GOx system was 1.7-fold higher than that of the free HRP with free GOx system. This strategy will promote the development of biocatalysis reactions and biosensors as a promising method.

The convenience of colorimetric sensors is useful for practical applications. In this work, we constructed a novel colorimetric sensor with magnetic separation ability that can be operated in nearly neutral conditions and achieve one-step detection of metabolites. Magnetic Cu doped Fe 3 O 4 @FeOOH magnetic nanocomposite (Cu/Fe 3 O 4 @FeOOH) with an oxygen vacancy was prepared by a one-step self-assembly hydrothermal method, and fully characterized by different methods. The oxygen vacancy generated by the incorporation of Cu 2+ cations into the Fe 3 O 4 @FeOOH structure was confirmed to be a vital reactive site for enhancing the catalytic activity, which opens up a new way of designing highly efficient enzyme mimics. Benefiting from its inherent horseradish-peroxidase-like activity, a simple and selective enzyme-based colorimetric sensor was developed for one-step detection of H 2 O 2 and cholesterol, and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine was catalyzed by H 2 O 2 to generate a colored product of oxidized 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine for signaling. H 2 O 2 and cholesterol can be linearly detected in the same range from 0.01 to 0.4 mmol L -1 with detection limits of 0.0075 mmol L -1 and 0.0082 mmol L -1 , respectively. The proposed colorimetric sensor has satisfactory reusability, accuracy, and practicability in human serum samples, indicating its potential application for the detection of different metabolites in the fields of life science and analytical science.

The development of wavelength-tunable fluorescence immunoassays for sensitive biomarker detection remains a significant challenge in clinical diagnostics. In this work, we present an HRP-induced in situ fluorogenic immunoassay platform based on the rapid reaction between p-phenylenediamine (PPD) analogues and 6-hydroxyquinoline (6-Hy). The proposed mechanism involves HRP-catalyzed generation of hydroxyl radicals from H 2 O 2 , which subsequently oxidize PPD to form fluorescent copolymer nanoparticles (FCNPs) with 6-Hy. By strategically modifying the PPD structure with various substituents, we achieved discrete and tunable emission of FCNPs, with maxima spanning from 380 to 600 nm (Δλ ≈ 220 nm). Using cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as a model antigen and zinc-coordination nanoparticles (ZnNPs) as carriers, the immunoassay demonstrated exceptional performance, with a wide dynamic range (0.5-125 ng/mL) and an ultralow detection limit (0.17 ng/mL) for cTnI. The platform was successfully validated in human serum samples, showing excellent correlation with clinical standards. This work not only establishes a novel strategy for wavelength-programmable immunoassays but also provides a versatile platform for advancing biomarker detection in clinical diagnostics.

Tumor hypoxia limits radiotherapy and chemotherapy efficacy by promoting treatment resistance, while hypoxia-activated prodrugs (HAPs) like Tirapazamine (TPZ) face clinical failure due to insufficient tumor hypoxia. To address this challenge, we engineered HRP-catalyzed Mn(II) chelate-doped TPZ@CaCO₃/PDA-Mn@PEG nanoparticles (TCPPM NPs) that actively amplify hypoxia for potent TPZ activation. The hollow CaCO₃ core enables pH-responsive TPZ release (80% at pH 5.5), while the Mn-DopaCDTA-doped PDA shell provides enhanced T1-weighted MRI contrast ( r ₁ = 17.6 mM⁻¹s⁻¹, per Mn, 25 °C, 0.5 T), photoacoustic/ultrasound imaging, and synergistic PTT/PDT via ROS generation (4.0-fold increase, 1% O₂ conditions). In 4T1 tumor models, TCPPM NPs achieved 85% tumor reduction (vs. 45% for TPZ alone) and 45-day survival, overcoming HAP limitations through hypoxia amplification (PDA ROS O₂ consumption + 61.3 °C PTT) and calcium-mediated mitochondrial damage. This HAP-specific theranostic platform integrates precise imaging-guided therapy, presenting a breakthrough for hypoxia-targeted cancer treatment.
