Tungsten carbide nanorods (WC NRs) are demonstrated for the first time to possess intrinsic peroxidase-like activity towards typical peroxidase substrates, such as 3, 3’, 5, 5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The reactions catalyze...
