Abstract
A single-holed cobalt - nitrogen - carbon (Co - N - C) hollow structure nanozyme has been fabricated by in situ growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF - 67) on the polystyrene (PS) sphere and following treatment by high-temperature carbonization. The Co - N - C nanostructure mimics the activity of oxidase and can activate O2 into reactive oxygen species (ROS), giving a remarkable enhancement on the chemiluminescence (CL) signal of luminol - O2 reaction. The Co - N - C oxidase mimic has further been exploited in the biosensing field by the determination of the activity of β - galactosidase (β - gal). The CL method for β - gal activity has a linear range of 0.5mU·L-1 to 5.0 U·L-1, a detection limit of 0.167mU·L-1, and the precision of 3.1% (5.0 U·L-1, n = 11). This method has been employed to assess inhibitor screening of β - gal and determine activity of β - gal in spiked human serum samples.
