Abstract: Molecularly imprinted polymer nanozyme (MIL-101(Co,Fe)@MIP) with bimetallic active sites and high-efficiency peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity were synthesized for the ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric dual-mode detection of vanillin with high selectivity and sensitivity. Compared with the monometallic nanozyme, the POD-like activity of bimetallic nanozyme was greatly enhanced by changing the electronic structure and surface structure. Ratiometric fluorescence and colorimetric dual-mode detection of vanillin in aqueous solution was realized by vanillin entering specific imprinted cavities and blocking the molecular channels on the surface of MIL-101(Co,Fe)@MIP and the dual-mode visual detection was also realized. The limits of detection were as low as 104 nM and 198 nM, respectively. The method proposed in this paper was applied to the real samples of ice cream and candy. And the recoveries were between 93.3% and 105.5%, which also reached a satisfactory degree. The further detection of dexamethasone and prednisone, two drugs belonging to glucocorticoid, proved that the nanozyme analysis method based on MIL-101(Co,Fe)@MIP could be developed into a sensing platform
