Hemin‐Doped, Ionically Crosslinked Silicone Elastomers with Peroxidase‐Like Reactivity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The encapsulation of hemin in polymer systems represents a powerful tool for the preparation of synthetic enzymes. Reported systems largely focus on the creation of hydrogels or microreactors that require a degree of modification to the hemin molecule itself. The straightforward synthesis of hydrophobic hemin‐aminosilicone crosslinked silicone elastomers is described with peroxidase like reactivity. Elastomers are formed from purely ionic interactions between commercial aminoalkylsilicones and native hemin, which acts as a crosslinker. Elastomers prepared from ethylene diamine‐based silicones are robust elastomers in which hemin is retained, while hemin can leach monoamine analogues into the adjacent aqueous environment. The system is easily tunable, allowing for precise control of the hemin concentration and the physical properties of the elastomer. Upon exposure to peroxide‐containing solutions, elastomers readily oxidize the substrate 3′,3′,5′,5′‐tetramethylbenzidine at the interface. Elastomers containing excess amine show greater catalytic efficiency due to the coordination of the amines to the iron center of hemin, which is known to be activating. The reaction can be followed using UV‐visible spectroscopy; rates of reaction and Michaelis–Menten parameters are derived.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
