AI Technical Summary
Existing UCNPs coated with silica suffer from issues such as lack of core particles and co-encapsulation, making it difficult to control the shell thickness, limiting biofunctionalization, and requiring additional chemical treatment, which affects their application in biosensing.
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was loaded onto a Zr-MOF (UIO-66-NH2) shell. The shell thickness was precisely controlled through a layer-by-layer self-assembly method. The amino and phosphate groups provided by the MOF shell were used for biofunctionalization modification to prepare the UCNP@MOF/HRP probe.
This study achieves high biocompatibility and stability of UCNPs, improves the specificity and detection efficiency of biological assays, and provides catalytic colorimetric function.
