The accurate monitoring of gallic acid (GA) in foodstuffs is crucial for safeguarding human health. application nanozymes colorimetric assays offers a promising route assessing the GA level. However, development high-efficiency and cost-effective quick detection holds substantial challenge. In this study, copper (Cu) nanoparticles (NPs) immobilized on N-doped carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) have been prepared, exhibiting exceptional peroxidase (POD)-like activity food. anchoring Cu with NCNTs enables their excellent antioxidant capacity. Then, obtained NPs/NCNTs show remarkable POD-like catalyzing TMB oxidation, attributes long-term storage stability reproducibility. Electrochemical radical scavenging experiments reveal dual mechanism action (involving reactive oxygen species electron transfer) POD-mimicking activity. Furthermore, developed catalytic platform applied to detect actual tea samples, demonstrating high reliability potential utility food industry.

Abstract The catalytic activity of carbon dots (CDs) has generated significant interest regarding their potential applications within the biomedical field. However, structure‐activity relationship CDs and pharmacological mechanisms in disease treatment have yet to be comprehensively elucidated. In this study, two distinct types exhibiting superoxide dismutase (SOD)‐like enzymatic activities are synthesized through hydrothermal (Hy‐CDs) carbonization (Ca‐CDs) methods, utilizing Honeysuckle as common material precursor. Through comparative analysis, surface group modifications, theoretical calculations, it is determined that SOD‐like primarily originated from stabilizing influence amino on (•O 2 − ) intermediate its conjugation π‐system, facilitating electron transfer. vitro experiments demonstrated Hy‐CDs effectively alleviated cellular oxidative stress inhibited secretion pro‐inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, bioactivity properties contribute pronounced therapeutic efficacy acute lung injury (ALI) ischemia/reperfusion (LIRI). Guided by transcriptomic analysis Western blotting, inhibit Caspase11/GSDMD‐dependent non‐classical pyroptosis down‐regulating GBP2 protein expression, thereby contributing inflammation. This study elucidates underlying biological applications.

How to accurately diagnose and treat bacterial infections in vivo remains a huge challenge. Therefore, we have developed targeted delivery nanosystem by coextruding the pretreated macrophage membrane of S. aureus with carbon dots (M@CD). The M@CD demonstrates potent antibacterial effects both vitro through generation reactive oxygen species (ROS). Furthermore, exhibits enhanced targeting ability stable fluorescence properties, addressing issues such as poor efficiency high immunogenicity vivo. This innovative approach enables infection site specific aggregation elimination infections, thereby providing promising strategy for integrated diagnosis, treatment, monitoring infections.

Background: Diabetic wounds infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are challenging to heal due biofilm formation, which impairs conventional antibiotics limited penetration and severe side effects. Near-infrared (NIR)-driven nanomotors autonomous motion photothermal effects show promise for antibacterial therapy but often lack targeted specificity. Lysostaphin (Ly), an enzyme targeting bacterial cell walls, offers excellent potential against drug-resistant MRSA. Methods: A novel NIR-driven CSIL nanomotor has fabricated by co-loading indocyanine green (ICG) lysostaphin onto spinous yolk-shell structured C/SiO2@C nanoparticles. The motion, penetration, efficacy of evaluated in vitro, while their eradication wound healing performance assessed MRSA-infected diabetic mouse model using a cascade photodynamic (CPDT) strategy. Results: exhibit properties MRSA-targeting They can effectively eradicate MRSA biofilms both vitro vivo, suppress virulence biofilm-related genes, thus promoting shaping microenvironment dominated M2 macrophages. CPDT strategy is able avoid excessive ROS production thermal damage, enabling safe effective therapy. Conclusion: nanomotors, integrated photothermal, photodynamic, properties, represent novel, efficient approach wounds, offering significant advantages over antibiotics.
