Abstract

Herein we reported Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) possess ascorbic acid oxidase (AAO)- and ascorbic acid peroxidase (APOD)-like activities, which suppressed the formation of harmful H2O2 and finally inhibited the anti-cancer efficiency of ascorbic acid (AA). This newly revealed correlation between iron and AA could provide new insight for the studies of nanozymes and free radical biology.
