Bioconjugates and methods of making bioconjugates are provided, wherein the bioconjugates comprise glucose oxidase and nanoparticles that can kill tumor cells. For example, glucose oxidase-iron oxide bioconjugates can produce reactive oxygen species from blood glucose, causing cell death. The use of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles can provide magnetic resonance imaging guidance to facilitate imaging-guided drug delivery and combine diagnostics with therapy. |
