A novel metal–organic framework (MOF)-on-MOF dual enzyme-mimic nanozyme was designed as enhanced cascade signal amplification for the colorimetric and chemiluminescent (CL) dual-mode aptasensing. The MOF-on-MOF hybrid is composed of MOF-818 with catechol oxidase-like activity and iron porphyrin MOF PMOF(Fe) with peroxidase-like activity, called MOF-818@PMOF(Fe). MOF-818 can catalyze the 3,5-di- tert -butylcatechol substrate and produce H 2 O 2 in situ. Subsequently, PMOF(Fe) catalyzes H 2 O 2 to produce reactive oxygen species, which oxidize 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine or luminol to produce color or luminescence. Thanks to the nano-proximity effect and the confinement effect, the efficiency of the biomimetic cascade catalysis is greatly improved, which in turn generates enhanced colorimetric and CL signals. Taking the detection of chlopyrifos as an example, the prepared dual enzyme-mimic MOF nanozyme is combined with the aptamer with specific recognition ability to develop a colorimetric/CL dual-mode aptasensor for highly sensitive and selective detection of chlorpyrifos. The proposed MOF-on-MOF dual nanozyme-enhanced cascade system may provide a new pathway for the further development of a biomimetic cascade sensing platform.
