Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of nanoenzyme catalytic materials. Specifically, the present invention relates to the preparation of an oxygen vacancy-rich high-entropy oxide with multi-pathway synergistic antibacterial effect as an enzyme-like catalyst for the prevention and treatment of marine biofouling. Background Art

[0002] The occurrence and development of marine biofouling seriously threatens the sustainable use of marine resources and the maintenance of marine ecological balance. Early heavy metal-based antifouling materials have led to marine pollution, the death of marine organisms, and ecological disruption. Therefore, the development of environmentally friendly marine antifouling materials has become a research hotspot (Li S, Feng K, Li J, et al. Marine antifouling strategies: Emerging opportunities for seawater resource utilization [J]. Chem. Eng. J., 2024, 486, 149859.).

[0003] In recent years, researchers have explored a series of nanomaterials with enzymatic catalytic properties based on the antifouling mechanism of organisms in the marine environment - nanozymes. According to the mechanism of action, they can be divided into nanozymes with reactive oxygen species regulation ability, extracellular DNA clearance ability and bacterial quorum sensing interference ability (Mei L, Zhu S, Liu Y, et al. An overview of the use of nanozymes in antibacterial applications [J]. Chem. Eng. J. 2021, 418: 129431.). Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes not only have the advantages of excellent catalytic activity, high stability, and easy large-scale production, but the unique physical and chemical properties of the nanostructure also provide more possibilities for the development of new enzyme-based materials (Liang M, Yan X. Nanozymes: From New Concepts, Mechanisms, and Standards to Applications [J]. Acc. Chem. Res. 2019, 52 (8), 2190-2200.).

[0004] However, most of the antifouling nanozymes reported so far exhibit a single catalytic mechanism, and the antibacterial pathway is easily restricted by the actual complex environment and is difficult to function. Patent (CN116554227A) discloses a molybdenum complex nanorod with the ability to produce hypohalous acid. The production of the excellent catalytic performance of the nanorod depends on the catalysis of a higher concentration of H2O2 / bromide ions, which is not conducive to antibacterial and antifouling in the actual environment. Patent (CN116092814A) discloses a Fe2O3@TiO2@MoS2 material with excellent photocatalytic performance and magnetic recyclability. This material only has peroxidase-like activity and has low antibacterial efficiency under non-light conditions. In addition, the relatively single composition also limits the activity regulation of nanozymes.

[0005] High-entropy oxides (HEOs) are multi-component metallic materials with high configurational entropy, synthesized from five or more metal oxides in equal or nearly equal molar ratios. Their unique elemental tunability and distribution give HEOs four distinct properties from traditional materials: high entropy, lattice distortion, hysteresis diffusion, and cocktail effect. These effects promote the formation of HEO's extremely high thermal stability, strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance, and have attracted widespread attention in the fields of thermoelectricity, magnetocaloric, superconductivity, and catalysis. HEO powders and coating materials derived from them have also been gradually explored (Hsu WL, Tsai CW, Yeh AC, et al. Clarifying the four core effects of high-entropy materials [J]. Nat. Rev. Chem. 2024, 8 (6), 471-485; Aamlid SS, Oudah M, Rottler J, et al. Understanding the Role of Entropy in High Entropy Oxides [J]. J. Am. Chem. Soc 2023, 145 (11), 5991-6006.). However, to date, high-entropy nanozyme catalysts prepared based on high-entropy oxides with multi-type enzyme catalytic activity and multi-pathway efficient antifouling have not been reported.

[0006] In view of this, the inventors of the present application intend to provide a high-entropy nanozyme with multi-pathway synergistic antibacterial effect, as well as a preparation method and use thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, and further provide a high-entropy nanozyme with multi-pathway synergistic antibacterial effect, its preparation method and use. The high-entropy nanozyme exhibits three types of enzyme activities, namely, haloperoxidase-like, peroxidase-like and glutathione oxidase-like. It can catalyze bromide ions and hydrogen peroxide to generate hypobromous acid with bacterial quorum sensing interference effect and hydroxyl free radicals with structure and function destruction effect, and consume glutathione with the function of maintaining the internal redox balance of bacteria, and is used for the prevention and treatment of marine biofouling.

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] The preparation method of high-entropy nanozymes with multi-pathway synergistic antibacterial effects comprises at least the following steps:

[0010] (1) dissolving a surfactant in a mixed solution of deionized water and anhydrous ethanol and ultrasonically dispersing the mixture, then adding tannic acid and formaldehyde solution, and stirring uniformly to obtain tannic acid-formaldehyde oligomers;

[0011] (2) adding equimolar solutions of five soluble metal salts of chromium, manganese, iron, nickel, copper, cobalt or zinc to the tannic acid-formaldehyde oligomer obtained in (1), and subjecting the resulting oligomer to a hydrothermal reaction under a weakly alkaline environment regulated by ammonia water to covalent cross-linking to obtain a metal-tannic acid-formaldehyde polymer precursor.

[0012] (3) After drying, the metal-tannic acid-formaldehyde polymer precursor was calcined at 800-1000°C in a nitrogen atmosphere, 300-500°C in an air atmosphere, and 300-500°C in a nitrogen / hydrogen mixed atmosphere to obtain high-entropy oxide nanozymes rich in oxygen vacancies, which were labeled as HEO.

[0013] Preferably, the surfactant in step (1) is one of F127, P123, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, polyvinylpyrrolidone, triethylamine, poloxamer or similar surfactants.

[0014] Preferably, the usage ratio of the surfactant, tannic acid and formaldehyde solution in step (1) is 2g:2g:3.8mL.

[0015] Preferably, the soluble metal salt in step (2) includes any one of nitrate, chloride or sulfate, and the mass ratio of the soluble metal salt to tannic acid is (0.5-1):2.

[0016] Preferably, the hydrothermal reaction conditions in step (2) are 60-200° C. and the time is 10-25 h.

[0017] Preferably, the calcination time in a nitrogen atmosphere at 800-1000°C in step (3) is 2-4 hours; the calcination time in an air atmosphere at 300-500°C is 3-5 hours; the calcination time in a nitrogen / hydrogen mixed atmosphere at 300-500°C is 1-3 hours, and the nitrogen / hydrogen ratio is (1-50):100sccm.

[0018] In addition, the present invention provides an application of a high-entropy nanozyme with multi-pathway synergistic antibacterial effect. The high-entropy nanozyme exhibits haloperoxidase-like, peroxidase-like, and glutathione oxidase-like activities and is applied to the prevention and treatment of marine biofouling. The specific antibacterial catalytic principle is as follows:

[0019] Haloperoxidase-like: H2O2+HEO+Br - →HOBr

[0020] Peroxidase-like: H2O2+HEO→·OH

[0021] Glutathione oxidase-like: GSH+HEO→CSSG+2H +

[0022] Among them, haloperoxidase-like enzymes can catalyze the oxidation of Br in the presence of H2O2. - It generates hypohalous acid (HOBr), which causes oxidative halogenation reactions in marine bacterial signal molecules, hindering normal intercellular communication, limiting quorum sensing and thus inhibiting biofilm colonization; peroxidase-like enzymes can catalyze H2O2 to generate hydroxyl radicals (·OH), which efficiently and quickly destroy bacterial structures such as cell membranes and proteins, inhibit bacterial metabolic activity, and thus kill bacteria; glutathione oxidase-like enzymes can promote the consumption of glutathione (GSH) inside bacteria, causing oxidative stress and blocking internal nutrient supply, thereby coordinating the prevention and control of marine biofouling.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0024] The present invention relates to high-entropy oxide particles with multi-enzyme-like activity, which can generate hypobromous acid with bacterial quorum sensing interference effect and hydroxyl radicals with structure and function destruction effect, and promote the consumption of glutathione for maintaining redox balance inside bacteria to cause oxidative stress, and the anti-fouling application of the particles in marine organisms.

[0025] The present invention uses hydrothermal method and high-temperature calcination method for the first time to synthesize oxygen vacancy-rich high-entropy oxides with haloperoxidase-like, peroxidase-like and glutathione oxidase-like activities. It can catalyze bromide ions and hydrogen peroxide to generate hypobromous acid with bacterial quorum sensing interference effect and hydroxyl radicals with structure and function destruction effect, and consume glutathione with the function of maintaining the internal redox balance of bacteria, thereby achieving multi-pathway synergistic and efficient bacterial damage and inactivation. It is beneficial to solve the problems of single catalytic pathway and poor component adjustability of existing antifouling nanoenzyme materials, and realize the practical expansion application of high-entropy nanoenzyme coatings, which has potential application prospects in the field of marine biological antifouling.

[0026] The high-entropy nanozyme provided by the present invention has the advantages of uniform morphology, large specific surface area, and a large number of active sites and defects, which is conducive to solving the problems of single catalytic pathway and low catalytic activity of existing antifouling nanozyme materials; multi-element composition also provides more possibilities for its activity regulation; the preparation technology of existing coatings is also easy to realize the practical expansion application of high-entropy nanozyme coatings. It shows three kinds of enzyme activities such as haloperoxidase, peroxidase and glutathione oxidase, which can catalyze bromide ions and hydrogen peroxide to generate hypobromous acid with bacterial quorum sensing interference and hydroxyl radicals with structural function destruction, and consume glutathione with the function of maintaining bacterial internal redox balance, which is conducive to multi-pathway efficient sterilization; antibacterial results show that it exhibits efficient and rapid bactericidal performance, and can effectively catalyze bromide ions and hydrogen peroxide at a low concentration of 0.1 mg / mL, achieving high concentration of bacteria (1×10 6 The results showed that the high-entropy nanozyme particles effectively killed 100% of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus (CFU / mL), with a sterilization rate of 100% for both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Simulated marine antifouling performance results showed that the surface of the plate coated with high-entropy nanozymes had a higher proportion of dead bacteria and a smaller coverage area, showing excellent antibacterial and anti-bacterial adhesion effects. Therefore, high-entropy oxide nanozyme particles rich in oxygen vacancies and with multi-enzyme-like activity exhibit excellent ability to prevent and control marine biofouling, and have obvious advantages and practical application prospects in the field of preparing marine biofouling antifouling materials.

[0048] After verification experiments, the test results of the enzyme-like activity test, antibacterial performance test and marine biofouling prevention performance test of Examples 2 to 3 were consistent with the results of Example 1.

[0049] In Example 1, the surface morphology and surface element analysis of the prepared HEO were analyzed using a FEIQuanta 200 scanning electron microscope with energy spectrum. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the uniform morphology distribution (average particle size 34.88±8.35 nm) and the presence of Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, and Cu elements are displayed, which facilitates further preparation of uniform anti-fouling coating materials as coatings.

[0050] In Example 1, the phase characteristics of the prepared HEO were analyzed using Shimadzu LabX-XRD-6000. Figure 3 As shown, multiple obvious diffraction peaks are displayed, which are attributed to the Fd-3m spinel structure, indicating that the material has a polycrystalline structure and good crystallinity.

[0051] In Example 1, the oxygen vacancy content of the prepared HEO was analyzed using electron paramagnetic resonance technology. Figure 4 As shown, a strong and sharp signal peak is displayed with a G value of 2.003, indicating that a large number of oxygen vacancies exist, which is beneficial to the improvement of catalytic performance.

[0052] In Example 1, the multi-enzyme activity and catalytic performance of the prepared HEO were analyzed using a Cary 60 UV-visible absorption spectrometer and an LS55 microplate reader:

Figure 5 As shown in the figure, compared with the control group, the ultraviolet absorbance of the reaction solution at 430 nm (the absorption peak of phenol red) decreased significantly, while the absorption peak at 589 nm (the absorption peak of bromophenol blue generated by bromination of phenol red) increased significantly, confirming the excellent haloperoxidase-like activity of HEO.

[0054] ② Peroxidase catalytic activity test: 100 μg / mL HEO aqueous solution, 350 μmol / L H2O2 and 0.1 mmol / L TMB were added to acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer solution with a pH of 4.0, and the mixture was reacted at room temperature for ten minutes. The absorption spectrum curve was scanned. Figure 6As shown, compared with the control group, the ultraviolet absorbance of the reaction solution at 652 nm (the absorption peak of ox-TMB generated by TMB oxidation) was significantly increased, confirming the excellent peroxidase-like activity of HEO.

[0055] ③ Glutathione oxidase catalytic activity test: 100 μg / mL HEO aqueous solution and 4 mmol / L glutathione (GSH) were mixed evenly and reacted at room temperature for ten minutes. Then 100 μL of the mixture solution was added to a solution containing 0.1 mmol / L TNB and the absorption spectrum curve was scanned. Figure 7 As shown, compared with the control group, the ultraviolet absorbance of the reaction solution at 412 nm (the absorption peak of TNB generated by the DTNB reaction) was significantly reduced, confirming the excellent glutathione oxidase-like activity of HEO.

[0056] ④Catalytic hypobromous acid generation test: 100 μg / mL HEO aqueous solution, 100 μmol / L H2O2 and 1 mmol / L Br - Mix well, use 50μmol / L lapis lazuli blue as the color developer, react for 30 minutes at room temperature, and scan the absorption spectrum curve. Figure 8 As shown, compared with the control group, the ultraviolet absorbance of the reaction solution at 642 nm (absorption peak of lapis lazuli blue) was significantly reduced, confirming that HEO catalyzed the large-scale production of hypobromous acid.

[0057] ⑤ Catalytic hydroxyl radical generation test: 100 μg / mL HEO aqueous solution and 1 mmol / L terephthalic acid solution were mixed evenly, reacted at room temperature for ten minutes, and the fluorescence spectrum curve was scanned. Figure 9 As shown, compared with the control group, the fluorescence intensity of the reaction solution at 430 nm (the peak of 2-hydroxyterephthalic acid generated by the reaction of terephthalic acid) increased significantly, confirming that HEO catalyzed the massive generation of hydroxyl radicals.

[0058] In Example 1, the antibacterial properties of the prepared HEO were analyzed using the dilution plate method. Group settings: ①: Control group: 1×10 6 CFU / mL bacterial solution was added to a 24-well plate and mixed evenly, and then placed in a 37°C incubator for 4 h; ②: Control+H2O2+Br - Group: 1×10 6 CFU / mL bacterial solution, 100 μmol / L H2O2 and 1 mmol / L Br - The solution was added to a 24-well plate and mixed evenly, and then placed in a 37°C incubator for 4 h; ③: HEO group: 100 μg / mL HEO solution and 1×10 6CFU / mL bacterial solution was added to a 24-well plate and mixed evenly, and then placed in a 37°C incubator for 4 h; ④: HEO+H2O2+Br - Group: 100 μg / mL HEO solution, 1×10 6 CFU / mL bacterial solution, 100 μmol / L H2O2 and 1 mmol / L Br - The solution was added to a 24-well plate and mixed evenly, then placed in a 37°C incubator for 4 hours. The mixed solution was then diluted and spread on a plate, inverted and incubated in a 37°C constant temperature shaker overnight. Finally, the colonies were counted and the antibacterial rate was calculated. Figure 10 As shown in the figure, compared with the control group, the HEO group can effectively kill high-concentration bacteria at a lower concentration, while HEO+H2O2+Br - The sterilization rate of the group against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) reached 100%;

[0059] In Example 1, the biofouling prevention performance of the prepared HEO was analyzed as follows: 0.1 g of HEO powder was mixed with 0.9 g of commercial marine paint and coated on a polypropylene plastic plate, which was then hung in an actual seawater environment for 7 days ( Figure 11 a) Use SYTO 9 and PI dyes to stain the plate for live / dead bacteria and observe. Figure 11 As shown in Figure b, compared with the blank plate without coating and the control plate coated with coating only, the substrate coated with HEO coating showed more obvious red fluorescence (dead bacteria) and less fouling coverage area, which fully confirmed that HEO has excellent anti-biofouling ability.
