We present a nanozyme-based biosensor fabricated from nanostructured Ni films deposited onto a silicon wafer by glancing angle deposition (GLAD) for enzyme-free colorimetric monitoring of uric acid (UA), a biomarker for gout, high blood pressure, heart disease, and kidney disease. The helically structured Ni GLAD nanozymes exhibit excellent peroxidase-like activity to accelerate the oxidation reaction of colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to a blue product, oxidized TMB (oxTMB), mediated by H2O2. In the presence of UA, oxTMB is reduced, decreasing the optical absorbance by an amount determined by the concentration of UA in the solution. The nanozyme not only mimics peroxidase but also possesses the notable qualities of reusability, simple operation, and reliability, making it environment-friendly and suitable for on-demand analysis. We optimized essential working parameters (pH, TMB concentration, and H2O2 concentration) to maximize the initial color change of the TMB solution. The catalytic activity of this nanozyme was compared with conventional nanofilms using the Michaelis-Menten theory. Based on this, enzyme-free biosensors were developed for colorimetric detection of UA, providing a wide detection range and a limit of detection (3.3 mu M) suitable for measurements of UA concentration in sweat. Furthermore, interference from glucose and urea was studied so as to explore the potential of the biosensor for use in the clinical diagnosis of UA biomarkers.
