Abstract

formed by the oxidation of alcohol to acetaldehyde in the presence of AOx. When coupled with AOx, alcohol was detected down to 23.8 μM in a buffer solution for biological assays. Notably, alcohol was successfully detected in mouse blood samples with results comparable to that from commercial alcohol meters. These results highlight the potential of the Au@PtRu nanorods with peroxidase-like activity for alcohol detection, which opens up a new avenue for nanozyme development for biomedical applications.
