A Fenton-like reaction system with analyte-activated catfish effect as an enhanced colorimetric and photothermal dopamine bioassay

radicals in such a reaction system can significantly oxidize TMB indicator into its oxidation product (TMBox) and therefore indicate the corresponding target-dependent color and photothermal signal readout, enabling the successful fabrication of a more sensitive and stable colorimetric and photothermometric DA sensor. More significantly, this strategy can greatly advance the practical application of Fenton-like reactions in the fields of colorimetric and photothermometric bioassays.
