We developed a new method using pH-controlled catalase-gold nanoparticles (CAT-Au(NP)) for creating versatile multilayers. These nanocomposites show enhanced catalytic activity for hydrogen peroxide detection.

Area of Science:

Nanomaterials Science
Bioconjugation Chemistry
Electrochemistry

Background:

Catalase-encapsulated gold nanoparticles (CAT-Au(NP)) offer unique properties for biosensing.
Controlling nanoparticle assembly is crucial for creating functional multilayers.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a novel, pH-tunable method for preparing multilayered CAT-Au(NP) structures.
To investigate the structural transformations and catalytic properties of these CAT-Au(NP) multilayers.

Main Methods:

Synthesis of catalase-stabilized gold nanoparticles (CAT-Au(NP)).
Electrostatic layer-by-layer assembly with polyions (PEs) controlled by pH.
Characterization of nanoparticle structural transformations at different pH values.
Electrochemical analysis of multilayered structures for catalytic activity.

Main Results:

CAT-Au(NP) exhibit pH-dependent charge reversal, enabling electrostatic assembly.
At pH 5.2 (near catalase pI), CAT-Au(NP) transform into colloidal or network nanocomposites.
Layer-by-layer assembly results in high loading of CAT and Au(NP) with effective electron transfer.
The resulting multilayers demonstrate significant catalytic activity towards H(2)O(2).

Conclusions:

A versatile, pH-controlled method for creating functional CAT-Au(NP) multilayers is established.
These multilayers exhibit excellent catalytic performance for hydrogen peroxide reduction.
The approach holds promise for advanced biosensor development.
