Pyrophosphate-Enhanced Oxidase Activity of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles for Colorimetric Detection of Nucleic Acids
In recent years, cerium oxide (CeO<sub>2</sub>) nanoparticles (NPs) have drawn significant attention owing to their intrinsic enzyme mimetic properties, which make them powerful tools for biomolecular detection. In this work, we evaluated the effect of pyrophosphate (PPi) on the oxidase...

In recent years, cerium oxide (CeO<sub>2</sub>) nanoparticles (NPs) have drawn significant attention owing to their intrinsic enzyme mimetic properties, which make them powerful tools for biomolecular detection.

The presence of PPi was found to enhance the oxidase activity of CeO<sub>2</sub> NPs, with enhanced colorimetric signals. This particular effect was then used for the colorimetric detection of target nucleic acids. Overall, the PPi-enhanced colorimetric signals of CeO<sub>2</sub> NPs oxidase activity were suppressed by the presence of the target nucleic acids.
