In the present study, a facile solvothermal method was used for the synthesis of silicotungstic acid (HSiW) immobilized on Ce-based metal organic framework (Ce-BDC) and embedded in Zr-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66(Zr)) composite catalyst, namely, Ce-BDC@HSiW@UiO-66 for the production of biodiesel through green fatty acid esterification. The obtained hybrids were characterized by various characterization technologies, including Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, N 2 physisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption of NH 3 (NH 3 -TPD) analysis. The characterization analyses showed that the hybrids have been successfully synthesized. Also, the volume and pore size of UiO-66(Zr) were changed by introducing HSiW@Ce-BDC, and the resulting Ce-BDC@HSiW@UiO-66 possessed the mesoporous structure and relatively high surface area. Simultaneously, the NH 3 -TPD analysis of Ce-BDC@HSiW@UiO-66 reveals that the acid strength was increased in comparison with HSiW@Ce-BDC. In addition, the composite Ce-BDC@HSiW@UiO-66 demonstrated high catalytic activity, and the oleic acid esterification gave 81.5% conversion at optimum conditions of 0.2 g catalysts, 1:30 oleic acid to methanol molar ratio at 130°C for 4 h. More interestingly, after six recycling cycles, the reduction in the conversion rate was only 4.6%, indicating that Ce-BDC@HSiW@UiO-66 has excellent reusability. Our study provides an effective approach to synthesize multifunctional hybrids for green biofuel production.

The management of wounds afflicted by bacterial infections remains a formidable challenge within contemporary medical spheres. In recent years, hydrogels based on porous metal-organic framework (MOF) possess great potential in the treatment of bacterial infections in wounds due to their excellent drug delivery properties, promotion of tissue regeneration, and good biocompatibility. In this study, zirconium-based MOF (UIO-66) multifunctional hydrogel dressings loaded with curcumin (GMDE/UIO-66@Cur) were designed for the treatment of wounds afflicted by bacterial infections. The dynamic network of hydrogels formed by combining methacrylic anhydride-modified gelatin (GelMA) with oxidized (aldehyde functionalized) dextran (Dexo) via free radical polymerization and Schiff base reaction possesses excellent function of promoting skin regeneration. Meanwhile, the zirconium-based MOF-based hydrogel loaded with the active ingredient curcumin (Cur) fully enables antibacterial and anti-inflammatory actions. Through the realization of drug delivery and the stimulation of skin tissue regeneration, the GMDE/UIO-66@Cur hydrogel has been shown to expedite the healing of bacterial-infected wounds, achieving a remarkable healing ratio of 93.44 % by the 14th day of treatment. Furthermore, the wound tissue treated with the GMDE/UIO-66@Cur hydrogel demonstrates ameliorated inflammation, accompanied by augmented epithelial regeneration and angiogenesis. This design exhibits the promising application of this multifunctional hydrogel in the therapeutic management of bacterial-infected wounds.

Vapor-phase deposition for the preparation of metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes is of great interest in its scalable and sustainable manufacturing. Nevertheless, there remains no report on vapor-assisted conversion (VAC) for preparation of zirconium-based MOF membranes to date. Here, we established a VAC protocol for preparing UiO-66 membranes on the porous α-Al 2 O 3 tube. It was found that the substrate surface modification, metal-to-ligand ratio and concentration of the modulator are crucial parameters to control the quality of the resulting membrane microstructure. The obtained UiO-66 membrane exhibited excellent dye rejection rates (>99.5 %) and reliable operation stability (no reduction in separation performance during 96 h). In addition, the VAC approach also can be adopted to synthesis of high-performance UiO-66-NH 2 and MOF-801 membranes. Therefore, the VAC protocol might open new horizons in sustainable production of water-stable MOF membranes for practical applications.

In this study, a novel metal organic framework (MOF) was prepared by pre-modification strategy and used as adsorbents to recover palladium ions in wastewater. The characterization indicates that the adsorbents have been successfully synthesized. The effects of various factors on the adsorption behavior of the adsorbents for Pd(II) was studied. Experimental research shows that the optimal pH of the adsorption process is 4.0. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of Pd(II) on the adsorbents show that it conforms to pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models, respectively. Therefore, the adsorption reaction is a single layer adsorption on the uniform surface of the adsorbent, and chemical adsorption is the main rate-limiting step. According to thermodynamic analysis, the adsorption process is entropiezunahme, spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption mechanism of Pd(II) on the adsorbents is mainly through the electrostatic action and chelation of Pd(II) with N and O atoms, and the reduction of Pd(II) to Pd(0) by N and O functional groups. The adsorbents can selectively uptake palladium ions from multi-ion wastewater, and after five adsorption–desorption cycles, the adsorption efficiency is still high. This new adsorbent has a wide application prospect in the field of palladium ion separation.

Phosphorylation is a common process for regulating protein functions. Studies have confirmed that many human diseases are associated with the abnormal phosphorylation of proteins. Hence, uncovering the phosphorylation state of proteins turns to be of much importance for biomedicine and clinical practice. In this work, we report a simple but efficient colorimetric sensor array for the quantification and identification of phosphorylated proteins by using a Zr-based MOF as a peroxidase mimic. Thanks to its unique dipyridyl-based ligands, the proposed MOF is able to exhibit favorable catalytic activity to stimulate the chromogenic reaction of H 2 O 2 and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine. When phosphorylated proteins are in presence, they can anchor onto the nanozyme surface via the strong interaction between phosphate groups in proteins and Zr nodes in the MOF, resulting in the inhibition of the nanozyme’s activity and the suppression of the chromogenic reaction. Based on this principle, our colorimetric sensor array enabled the facile quantification of phosphorylated proteins. Given that proteins with different phosphorylation states would affect the catalytic activity of the MOF nanozyme in different degrees, we further integrated the array with principal component analysis for the successful identification of phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated proteins.

Improving the supply of O 2 and the circulation lifetime of photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT) in vivo would be a promising approach to eliminate hypoxic tumors. Herein, by taking advantage of the significant gas-adsorption capability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a biomimetic O 2 -evolving photodynamic therapy (PDT) nanoplatform with long circulating properties was fabricated. Zirconium (IV)-based MOF (UiO-66) was used as a vehicle for O 2 storing, then conjugated with indocyanine green (ICG) by coordination reaction, and further coated with red blood cell (RBC) membranes. Upon 808 nm laser irradiation , the initial singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) generated by ICG would decompose RBC membranes. At the same time, The photothermal property of ICG could facilitate the burst release of O 2 from UiO-66. Subsequently, the generated O 2 could significantly improve the PDT effects on hypoxic tumor. Owing to the advantages of long circulation and O 2 self-sufficient, the designed nanotherapeutic agent can improve the efficiency of treatment against hypoxia tumor via PDT. Hence, this study presents a new paradigm for co-delivery of O 2 and photosensitizers, and provides a new avenue to eliminate hypoxic tumors.

The development of a highly efficient sensor capable of detecting formic acid is crucial for monitoring air quality and determining the leakage because of the strong corrosivity and pungency. In this work, we present the superiority of a proton conductive metal-organic framework (MOF) thin film as a sensing material for highly efficient detection of formic acid at room temperature. Specifically, MOF-801, a zirconium-based MOF, exhibits exceptional chemical stability and inherent proton conduction, along with a significant surface area and high porosity. Through the solvothermal synthetic method, highly uniform and densely packed thin films of MOF-801 are successfully fabricated on glass substrates. The resulting sensor, based on MOF-801 thin films, displays exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, and durability for detecting formic acid at room temperature, outperforming both other MOFs based sensors and the traditional metal-oxide-based sensors that operate at high temperatures.

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are highly malignant tumors with limited treatment options owing to their heterogeneity and resistance to conventional therapies. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) have shown potential for STS treatment, with PDT being effective for sarcomas located on the extremities and body surface and PARPi targeting defects in homologous recombination repair. To address the limitations of PDT and harness the potential of PARPi, herein, a novel therapeutic approach for STS treatment combining nanocapsules bearing integrated metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), i.e., MOF@COF, with PDT and PARPi is proposed. Nanocapsules are designed, referred to as ZTN@COF@poloxamer, which contain a Zr-based MOF and tetrakis (4-carbethoxyphenyl) porphyrin as a photosensitizer, are coated with a COF to improve the sensitizing properties, and are loaded with niraparib to inhibit DNA repair. Experiments demonstrate that this new nanocapsules treatment significantly inhibits STS growth, promotes tumor cell apoptosis, exhibits high antitumor activity with minimal side effects, activates the immune response of the tumor, and inhibits lung metastasis in vivo. Therefore, MOF@COF nanocapsules combined with PARPi offer a promising approach for STS treatment, with the potential to enhance the efficacy of PDT and prevent tumor recurrence.

In this work, the Zr-based MOF was successfully fabricated with 4,6-Diamino-2-mercaptopyrimidine (DMP) and a novel adsorbent (Uio-DMP) was synthesized for the immobilization of Pb 2+ in aqueous medium . The morphological and structural characteristics of Uio-DMP were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Brunner Emmet Teller (BET), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The characterization results showed that the Uio-DMP maintained a pristine crystal structure and the sulfhydryl group was introduced to Zr-based MOF after chemical functionalization. The adsorption behavior of Uio-DMP for Pb 2+ was investigated in different conditions (solution pH, sorbent dose, Pb 2+ concentration, adsorption time, and co-existing ions). The experimental results indicated that the optimal pH was 6, the maximum adsorption capacity was 296.5 mg/g, and the Langmuir model well fitted the Pb 2+ removal process based on adsorption isotherm studies. The adsorption kinetic experiments revealed that the adsorption equilibrium could be achieved at 30 min and the adsorption process was consistent with the Pseudo-second-order model. The co-existing ions had a limited impact on Pb 2+ removal and the removal rate of 71.0% was maintained after five consecutive adsorption-desorption experiments. Furthermore, zeta potential and XPS analysis proved that the removal process of Pb 2+ over Uio-DMP was affected by electrostatic interaction , and nitrogen/sulfur atoms acting as the main adsorption sites. This study provides an insight into the removal of Pb 2+ in aqueous medium and the functionalization of adsorbents.
