Abstract
Nanozymes capped with a radical-scavenging capping agent are disclosed for use in biosensing assays with improved sensitivity. The radical-scavenging capping agent facilitates the capture and retention of one or more radicals for enhancing a catalytic reaction. In some example embodiments, the nanozyme capped by the radical-scavenging capping agent is capable of catalyzing the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide or molecular oxygen. The capped nanozymes may be incorporated with an electrode, such as the working electrode of an electrochemical sensor, for achieving enhanced catalytic activity and a lower limit of detection. In some example embodiments, the radical-scavenging capping agent is or includes thiocyanate. A rapid ethanol detection device and associated method are described in which the working electrode of an electrochemical sensor is modified by a peroxidase-mimetic nanozyme capped with a radical-scavenging capping agent for the enhanced generation of a reduction current associated with the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
