In recent decades, studies have focused on inorganic nanozymes to overcome the intrinsic drawbacks of bioenzymes due to the demands of improving the reaction conditions and lack of robustness to harsh environmental factors. Many biochemical reactions catalyzed by enzymes require light activation. Light-activated nanozymes have distinct advantages, including being regulated by light stimuli, activating the molecular oxygen to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) without interfering supplementary oxidants, and often showing a synergistic effect to catalyze some challenging reactions. Only a few studies have been done on this connection. Therefore, it is still a big challenge to develop a nanozyme regulated by light activation. Herein, we uncovered the light-activated oxidase mimicking activity of a conducting polymer polyaniline nanofibers (PANI-NFs). PANI-NFs exhibit intrinsic light-activated brilliant oxidase-like activity, can catalyze the colorless tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) to produce a blue product TMBox, and have a distinct |
