纳米酶的发现与应用

Discovery and Current Application of Nanozyme

自2007年发现四氧化三铁纳米材料具有类似辣根过氧化物酶的催化特性以来,纳米酶研究领域迅速崛起.不同形貌、尺度和材料各异的纳米酶相继出现,同时其催化机制逐渐被认识.由于纳米酶具有催化效率高、稳定、经济和规模化制备的特点,它在医学、化工、食品、农业和环境等领域的应用研究便应运而生.纳米酶的发现,不仅推动了纳米科技的基础研究,还拓展了纳米材料的应用.本文将介绍纳米酶研究领域的最新研究进展.

The research on nanozyme which is a novel enzyme mimic based on nanomaterial, is becoming a rapidly emerging field since ferromagnetic nanoparticles with intrinsic peroxidase-like activity was first reported in 2007. Many nanozymes with different morphologies, sizes and components are found to have intrinsic enzyme-like activities and their catalytic mechanisms are systematically investigated. Nanozyme demonstrates high efficient activity, stability and low cost by preparation at large scale. Therefore, nanozymes have promising and multiple applications in many important fields, such as biomedicine, chemical industry, food, agriculture and environment. The discovery of nanozyme not only promotes the basic research in nanotechnology, but also expands the applications of nanomaterials. This review will introduce the latest research progresses in the field of nanozyme.
