In this paper, magnetic core-shell nanoflowers Fe3O4@MnO2 were fabricated via a solvothermal method. We demonstrated that the as-synthesized magnetic nanoflowers Fe3O4@MnO2 possess intrinsic oxidase-like activity in a wide pH range and can catalytically oxidize 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP) and phenol substrates to form pink color products without the requirement for additional oxidizing agents. On the basis of this phenomenon, a simple colorimetric method for the determination of phenol was developed. A wide linear detection range can be obtained from 1.0 mu M to 120 mM (R-2 = 0.9962) with a detection limit of 0.15 mM. And the method was applied to determine phenol in wastewater with good recoveries ranging from 96.0 to 101.5%. Furthermore, benefitting from chemical stability and easy recovery (by simple magnetic separation) of Fe3O4@MnO2, the oxidase mimetics have excellent reusability and reproducibility in cycle analysis.
