Boosting the oxidase mimicking activity of nanoceria by fluoride capping: rivaling protein enzymes and ultrasensitive F- detection
Liu, Biwu; Huang, Zhicheng; Liu, Juewen (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-07-28)Nanomaterial-based enzyme mimics (nanozymes) are currently a new forefront of chemical research. However, the application of nanozymes is limited by their low catalytic activity and low turnover numbers. Cerium dioxide ... -
Parallel Polyadenine Duplex Formation at Low pH Facilitates DNA Conjugation onto Gold Nanoparticles
Huang, Zhicheng; Liu, Biwu; Liu, Juewen (American Chemical Society, 2016-11-15)DNA-functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been extensively used in sensing, drug delivery, and materials science. A key step is to attach DNA to AuNPs, forming a stable and functional conjugate. Although the ...
