Currently, nanozymes are widely employed in the rapid detection of food due to their stability and economy. The contents of bisphenol A and antioxidant can be used to measure the quality of beverages. However, due to the complexity of the actual samples, it is still challenging to achieve the sensitive detection of both at the same time. The development of nanozyme with high enzyme activity is essential for sensitive detection of targets in complex foods.
RESULTS: In this work, a novel nanomaterial (ZrTGA) was synthesized based on thioglycolic acid-modified Metal-Organic Framework (MOF-818). The interaction between Cu-S bonds and increase in the proportion of Cu1+ resulted in ZrTGA exhibiting higher peroxidase-like and polyphenol oxidase-like activities. These enzyme activities were 317 % and 200 % of the original values, respectively. With high enzyme activity can sensitively detect two important indicators of bisphenol A and antioxidants in beverages. The increased enzyme activity of ZrTGA enabled the content of both substances to be detected by smartphone extraction of RGB. Finally, through the output of the ''0″ and ''1″ signals of the logic gates, it is possible to quickly determine the level of the two substances and thus directly assess the quality of the beverages.
CONCLUSIONS: The modification of nanozyme enables the detection of substances at low concentrations based on enhancing dual-enzyme activity. The combination of mobile phone photography and logic gate technology enables the continuous detection of two important indicators in beverages, overcoming the limitations of traditional large-scale instruments. It also provides an alternative strategy for food quality detection.
