1. 简介

农业和粮食生产直接关系到人类的生存和发展。食品安全仍然是全球最关键的问题之一,因为食品可能在生产,包装,储存,运输和增值加工的所有阶段受到污染,从而导致食源性疾病的爆发[1]。世界卫生组织(WHO)指出,估计有6亿人(几乎每10人中就有1人)在食用受污染的食物后生病,每年有42万人死亡,导致3300万健康生命年(DALYs)的损失。食品危害有多种因素,如植物、动物和微生物代谢产物,来自环境的土壤和水污染危害,以及食品包装和加工过程中故意添加的非法添加剂[23]。
目前常用的检测免疫分析,如高效液相色谱(HPLC)、气相色谱(GC)、质谱(MS)、气相色谱/质谱(GC-MS)、液相色谱/质谱(LC-MS)和酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA),具有突出的特异性和准确性[5].然而,它们需要繁琐的预处理步骤、昂贵的仪器、专业的技术人员和较长的检测周期,这些不适合即时检测[6]。在这种情况下,随着纳米技术的快速发展和对纳米技术的深入了解,基于纳米材料的生物传感器检测食品污染和食品掺假已经彻底改变了全球食品工业[789]。
纳米酶是具有内在酶样特性的人造纳米材料,与固定在纳米材料上的天然酶或催化配体的“纳米酶”不同。总体而言,天然酶很容易被蛋白酶消化,在暴露于极端pH和高温后失去酶活性,这极大地阻碍了其实际应用[10]。纳米酶结构稳定,不仅能够在温和的生理条件下催化反应,而且能够在极端环境中保持酶活性。例如,过氧化物酶底物可以在极端pH(1-12)和温度(-20-80°C)下由铁基纳米酶催化。术语“纳米酶”是由Pasquato等人于2004年创造的,用于使用三氮杂环烷官能化的金纳米颗粒作为转磷酸化反应的催化剂[11]。2007年,Yan等人报道了Fe3O4纳米颗粒具有辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)固有的催化活性,在温和的生理条件下可以催化底物转化为天然过氧化物酶[12]。
迄今为止,纳米酶的催化性能已从最初的单一氧化还原酶(过氧化物酶)扩展到目前的四类,包括氧化还原酶、水解酶、裂解酶和异构酶[1314]。已经发现数十种无机纳米材料具有不同的催化活性,例如,具有过氧化物酶活性的二氧化铈纳米颗粒和铁磁性纳米颗粒,具有氧化酶活性的金纳米颗粒以及具有硝酸盐还原酶活性的硫化镉和硒化镉纳米颗粒[1516]。纳米粒子最突出的特点是催化活性优越,成本低,稳定性高,酶活性可控可调,这是其他模拟酶无法比拟的[17]。此外,纳米酶可以利用复杂的纳米技术进行尺寸控制和表面改性,以调节其酶活性,这被认为是具有独特物理化学性质的无机材料[18]。纳米酶的发现打破了以前无机纳米材料是惰性的观念,并揭示了它们也具有类似于酶的催化活性。大量实验证实,纳米酶有望作为酶的替代品应用于生命科学和食品工业(表1)[1920]。然而,基于纳米材料的合成酶的生物特征事件少、水溶性不足、批次设计合理、催化机理多,以及一些纳米酶与天然酶相比催化效率较低,仍然是限制其应用的主要障碍[21]。

2. Pesticide Residues

One of the major factors impacting food quality is contamination from pesticide residues [42]. The majority of pesticides are neurotoxic and carcinogenic to individuals, and their residues migrate through the food chain and environment and even persist in nature for more than 15 years [43]. To analyze pesticide residues in agricultural products and the environment at trace or even ultra-trace levels, the sensitive detection of pesticide residues primarily makes use of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and HPLC-MS/MS [44]. However, these methods are not appropriate for POCT, while the specific nanozyme structure holds a synergistic effect to raise the sensitivity of detected targets [45]. Pesticides can be broadly divided into four categories based on the chemical property of their active ingredients: organochlorines, organophosphates, carbamates and pyrethroids [46].
Applying a synthetic Fe-N/C SAzyme that directly oxidized TMB to produce blue oxidized product 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine diamine (oxTMB), Ge et al. established a novel, extremely sensitive malathion colorimetric platform. L-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AA2P), a substrate of acid phosphatase (ACP), could be hydrolyzed to AA, inhibiting the oxidization reaction of TM and resulting in noticeable blue color fading. With the addition of malathion, AA synthesis was reduced and ACP activity was hampered, restoring the catalytic activity of the single-atom nanozyme [47]. Iron-based metal-organic gel (MOGs) nanosheet hybrids with AuNPs immobilization (AuNPs/MOGs (Fe)) were fabricated to detect organophosphorus (OPs), which displayed excellent chemiluminescence (CL) properties. The considerable enhancement of CL was blamed for the modification of AuNPs on the MOGs (Fe) nanosheet, which synergistically increased the CL reaction by speeding the formation of OH, O2•− and 1O2 [48].
The removal of peroxidase-like activity and color interference is crucial for colorimetric analysis of the nanozyme. The GeO2 nanozyme was found that it only possessed peroxidase-like activity but no oxidase-like capability, which rendered the related detection system free from O2 disturbance. In addition, the white GeO2 nanozyme removed its color interference. Accordingly, a colorimetric sensing platform for ultra-trace detection of OPs pesticides with paraoxon as a representative model was proposed. In the absence of paraoxon, the active acetylcholinesterase (AChE) degraded the GeO2 nanozyme and lost its peroxidase function by hydrolyzing acetylthiocholine (ATCh) to thiocholine (TCh). In the presence of paraoxon, AChE was irreversibly inactivated and TCh production was inhibited [49].
While most investigations have been devoted to further optimizing fluorescent probes or assays to enhance the sensitivity for OPs, Liang et al. conducted groundbreaking work on creating yeast-surface-displayed acetylcholinesterase (AChE) mutants (E69Y and E69Y/F330L) from the perspective of modifying the sensitivity of AChE for OPs. Using electronegative fluorescent gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) combined with AChE mutants, an ultra-trace fluorescence assay for OPs with the LOD of 3.3 × 10−14 M was established, indicating that the E69Y and F330L mutations had the potential to significantly improve the sensitivity of the nanozyme to OPs [50].

3. Veterinary Drugs

Veterinary drugs are the substances applied to prevent, treat and diagnose animal diseases or purposefully regulate animal physiological functions and effectively help farmers solve the problems of livestock threatened by epidemics in breeding production, including antibiotics, antiparasitic and antifungal drugs, hormones, growth promoters, etc. [52]. In the ongoing expansion of the livestock industry today, the employment of veterinary drugs has been crucial in the production of animal-derived food [53]. Veterinary drug residues are the substances of prototype drugs and their metabolites as well as related impurities that accumulate or remain in the organisms or products of livestock and poultry (such as eggs, milk, meat, etc.) following drug application [54].
Li et al. established the Fe-gallic acid (GA) nanozymes (FGN), an artificial multi-iron peroxidase with monoclonal antibody recognition activity and high catalytic performance inspired by polyphenol–protein interactions. Afterward, clenbuterol (CLL) in pork and poultry was determined applying the nanozyme-mediated dual colorimetric immunochromatographic in conjunction with smartphones, with a detection limit of 0.172 ng mL−1 [55]. Applying aggregation-induced (AI)-electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-containing covalent organic framework materials (COF-AI-ECL) as the signal element and Co3O4 nanozyme as the signal amplification component, a CAP molecularly imprinted sensor was established. Co3O4 catalytically amplified the ECL signal of COF-AI-ECL, which was effectively quenched by CAP; thus, the ECL signal was controlled by the elution and adsorption of CAP by molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) [56]. Kanamycin (Kana) was detected on polyaniline-nanowire-functionalized reduced-graphene-oxide (PANI/rGO) framework by catalyzing H2O2 to generate oxygen using platinum nanozymes on hairpin DNA probes. The principle of signal amplification was to produce a sizable amount of Pt nanoparticles through the coupling of catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction and strand-displacement amplification (SDA) reaction [57].
Multisignal, enhanced ultrasensitive detection of veterinary drugs is considered an advanced academic research achievement. Utilizing planar VS2/AuNPs nanocomposites as the electrode sensing platform, streptavidin-functionalized CoFe2O4 nanozyme, and methylene-blue-labeled hairpin DNA (MB-hDNA) as signal-amplifying components, an electrochemical aptamer sensor for kanamycin (Kana) proportional detection was developed. The VS2/AuNPs nanocomposites were combined with hDNA complementarily hybridized with biotinylated Kana-aptamers, and the CoFe2O4 nanozyme immobilized on the aptamer sensor possessed excellent peroxidase-like catalytic activity. In the presence of Kana, aptamer biorecognition resulted in a decrease in nanozyme accumulation and an increase in the response of MB [58].
