Abstract

A selective and specific inhibition of the catalase mimetic activity but not SOD-like activity of Pt–apoferritin can be achieved through the choice of the inhibitor. The recovery of activity using a reducing agent was explored and proven to successfully restore the surface-chemistry of NPs.
