Abstract
A universal method for inactivating enzymes on demand is introduced, which involves irradiating nanorod-bound enzymes with near-infrared light. The subsequent generation of plasmonic heat denatures the enzymes selectively without damaging other proteins or cell membranes present in the same solution.Keywords: glucose oxidase; gold; horseradish peroxidase; hyperthermia; nanorods
