Cover Story: Nanozyme-based aptasensors are considered a promising complementary detection method on top of conventional ones for the rapid and accurate detection of food contaminants due to their high sensitivity and specificity. According to different interaction modes of ssDNA and nanozyme, nanozyme-based aptasensors are classified into aptasensors based on nanozyme activity either inhibited or enhanced by ssDNA, nanozymes as signal tags, and others. Before designing nanozyme-based aptasensors, the key factors affecting the regulation of nanozyme activity by ssDNA need to be understood for precisely tailoring nanozyme activity in biosensors. View this paper
