This study reports a facile method for the synthesis of multi-enzyme co-embedded organic-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers, using glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) as the organic components, and Cu 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ·3H 2 O as the inorganic component. The synthesized nanoflowers enable the...
