Figure 4: Protective performance of ZIF-8 coatings on HRP.
From: Biomimetic mineralization of metal-organic frameworks as protective coatings for biomacromolecules
Product conversion of free HRP, the biomimetically mineralized ZIF-8 using HRP (ZIF-8/HRP), HRP protected by calcium carbonate (CaCO3/HRP) and HRP protected by mesoporous silica (SiO2/HRP, SiO2 with average pore size of 7, 20, 50 and 100 nm) in the presence of proteolytic agent, trypsin, after treatment in boiling water for 1 h, and after treatment in boiling dimethylformamide (DMF) for 1 h at 153 °C, respectively. Data were normalized against free HRP activity at room temperature. Error bars represent the s.d. of three independent experiments.
