Nanozymes are nanomaterials with intrinsic magnetism and superparamagnetic properties. In the presence of an external magnet, nanozyme particles aggregate and redisperse without a foreign attraction. We evaluated the performances of nanozyme by changing the biosensing platforms and substituting other biological variants for a complete cancer assay detection. We investigated the expression of morphological variants in the transmission of signals using an electrochemical method. The signal responses, including signal enhancement with the nanozyme (Au-Fe

), showed a wide capturing range (greater than 80%, from 10

for the investigated T47D cancer cell line. We also obtained higher responses for anti-HER2 (human epidermal receptor 2)/streptavidin interface as the biosensing electrode in the presence of T47D cancer cells. The positive assay produced a sixfold increase in current output compared to the negative target or negative biological variant. We calculated the limit of detection at 0.4 U ml

(units per millilitre). However, blood volume amounts in clinical settings may constrain diagnosis and increase detection limit value significantly.
