“…Up to now, nanozymes with enzyme-mimicking characteristics have attracted tremendous attention in antibacterial therapy due to their excellent biocompatibility, tunable activity, long-term storage, ease for multifunctionalization, and rapid antimicrobial effect. − The mimicking of peroxidase (POD)-like activities by nanozymes can catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) with low doses into oxidizing reactive oxygen species (ROS) including hydroxyl radicals ( · OH) and superoxide anions ( · O 2 – ) with strong oxidizing properties, , which is an effective strategy to improve the antibacterial efficiency, maintain low toxicity, and save energy. Diverse nanozymes with POD-like activities have emerged, such as noble metals, transition metals, − and carbon-nanostructured materials and their oxides. ,,, For instance, Jiao et al grafted Cu 2 O nanocubes onto high-density gold nanoparticles as an attractive nanozyme for H 2 O 2 colorimetric sensors and antioxidant detection, achieving a high POD-like activity . Although the POD-like activities of the current nanozymes have been greatly improved, it remains a challenge to develop POD-like nanozymes with low cost, high yield, and good stability for antibacterial properties against bacteria.…”
