A new nanozyme (CuGaa) with switchable enzyme-like activity of peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase was successfully prepared based on guanidinoacetic acid and copper. The two enzyme-like activities can be easily switched by changing temperature or adding MnCl 2. At 4 °C, polyphenol oxidase-like activity decreased to nearly 1%, and the material is mainly characterized by peroxidase-like activity at this point. However, at 60 °C in the presence of 20 mM MnCl 2 , the peroxidase-like activity decreased to nearly 10%, and the polyphenol oxidase-like activity of the materials increased to 140%. Based on the switchable enzyme-like activity of CuGaa, detection methods for thymol and hydrogen peroxide were developed. In addition, a rapid combination strategy was further established combined with logic gate technology for the facile identification of complex contamination in honey, which provided new ideas for low-cost and rapid honey identification. The graphic descriptives that CuGaa has polyphenol oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities, and that under different conditions, CuGaa can be made to exhibit only one enzyme activity. [Display omitted] • Nanozyme with switchable enzyme-like activity. • Thymol detection at high temperature based on the nanozyme. • A sensing strategy combined with logic gate technology. • A facile identification of complex contamination in honey.
