Germanium dioxide nanoenzyme and pesticide detection application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of analytical chemistry, and particularly relates to germanium dioxide nanoenzyme and pesticide detection application thereof.
Background
The nano enzyme is a novel mimic enzyme, and becomes a focus of attention due to strong catalytic activity and potential application in aspects of biosensing, food technology, environmental protection and the like. The nano enzyme overcomes many defects of natural enzyme, such as high price, easy inactivation, strict requirement on storage condition and the like, and has great influence on the fields of biosensing, immunoassay, cancer diagnosis, treatment and the like.
To date, a variety of inorganic nanomaterials (including Co)3O4,CeO2,V2O5,CuO,MnO2CuS, FeS, noble metals, carbon (fullerenes, graphene), metal-organic framework structures and composite nanostructures thereof all exhibit mimetic activity (including mimetic peroxidase, mimetic oxidase, mimetic catalase)Superoxide dismutase-like). However, not all metal oxides have mimic enzyme activity. Germanium dioxide has not been reported to have biomimetic activity.
GeO2Is one of germanium oxides, and has been widely used as an anode material instead of graphite due to its low cost, simple synthesis process, and good environmental stability. At the same time, GeO2Is an important glass forming agent, can effectively adjust the refractive index of glass and the physical and chemical properties of glass materials, and is widely applied to the design of optical fiber core materials and cladding materials. GeO2The nano-structure material has important application prospect in the fields of luminescent devices and the like due to the excellent optical property of the nano-structure material. However, GeO has not been found yet2The nano enzyme has enzyme imitating activity.
Organophosphorus Pesticides (OP) are the most widely used agricultural pesticides and play an important role in increasing agricultural productivity and improving product quality. However, organophosphorus pesticides can cause various diseases such as senile dementia, Parkinson's disease, stroke and the like in human beings. The main reason is that the organophosphorus pesticide can inhibit the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in human body to a great extent, which leads to excessive accumulation of acetylcholine and further causes related diseases. Meanwhile, due to the high residue characteristic of the organophosphorus pesticide and the serious overuse or nonstandard operation in agricultural production, the high content residue of the pesticide on agricultural products is caused, and the balance of human health and natural ecology is seriously threatened. Therefore, the construction of a high-sensitivity detection platform and the realization of simple, convenient, rapid and high-sensitivity detection of the pesticide have important practical application values. Hitherto, such as High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), electrochemical analysis, colorimetry, and the like have been applied to the sensing detection of organophosphorus pesticides. However, these methods tend to have lower sensitivity and longer operating times, require special expertise, and rely on expensive large instruments. These factors severely limit the large scale application of the above methods in the field of pesticide residue detection. As described above, GeO having mimic enzyme activity2The nano enzyme has novelty in the field, and no GeO-based nano enzyme is reported at present2And detecting the organophosphorus pesticide by using the nano enzyme.
