GOx@ZIF‐8(NiPd) Nanoflower: An Artificial Enzyme System for Tandem Catalysis

Abstract

Abstract We report a facile approach to prepare an artificial enzyme system for tandem catalysis. NiPd hollow nanoparticles and glucose oxidase (GOx) were simultaneously immobilized on the zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF‐8) via a co‐precipitation method. The as‐prepared GOx@ZIF‐8(NiPd) nanoflower not only exhibited the peroxidase‐like activity of NiPd hollow nanoparticles but also maintained the enzymatic activity of GOx. A colorimetric sensor for rapid detection of glucose was realized through the GOx@ZIF‐8(NiPd) based multi‐enzyme system. Moreover, the GOx@ZIF‐8(NiPd) modified electrode showed good bioactivity of GOx and high electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), which could also be used for electrochemical detection of glucose.
