Peroxidases are widely utilized for degradation due to their capability to catalyse the breakdown of various organic compounds. In this study, three peroxidases, namely horseradish peroxidase (HRP), Pichia pastoris-expressed Eucodis® peroxidase (EP 13), and manganese peroxidase (MnP), were selected to investigate their effects on the enzymatic biodegradation of different allotropic forms of carbon materials, including graphene and single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT).

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) evidenced that a number of oxygen-containing functional groups are present in graphene, likely providing the catalytic sites for the peroxidase action thus facilitating its degradation, as previously demonstrated using other types of oxidative conditionsThis work is supported by funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement No 953152 (DIAGONAL).
