Characterization of glucose oxidation by gold nanoparticles using nanoceria

Lang, Nathan J.; Liu, Biwu; Liu, Juewen (Elsevier, 2014-04-30)

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can oxidize glucose, producing hydrogen peroxide and gluconic acid, which are the same products as those generated by glucose oxidase (GOx). In this regard, AuNPs are a nanozyme. Herein, a new ...
Multicopper Laccase Mimicking Nanozymes with Nucleotides as Ligands

Liang, Hao; Lin, Feifei; Zhang, Zijie; Liu, Biwu; Jiang, Shuhui; Yuan, Qipeng; Liu, Juewen (American Chemical Society, 2017-01-18)

Using nanomaterials to achieve functional enzyme mimics (nanozymes) is attractive for both applied and fundamental research. Laccases are multicopper oxidases highly important for biotechnology and environmental remediation. ...
