IL-17 (interleukin-17) is a common proinflammatory cytokine and can be adopted as an important biomarker for several diseases; it is thus very necessary to design an effective method for monitoring IL-17. Herein, by preparing silver nanoparticles/graphdiyne (Ag/GDY) with simple electroless deposition as the sensing platform and methylene blue/UiO-66-NH 2 MOFs (MB/MOFs) as the signaling-amplifier, a highly efficient sandwich-like electrochemical immunosensing (SLEI) platform was designed for IL-17 detection. The superior electrical property, easy preparation, large surface area, and high stability of Ag/GDY make it a desirable substrate to immobilize primary antibody of IL-17. Meanwhile, the unique structure of UiO-66-NH 2 is beneficial to immobilize MB probe and secondary antibody. By optimizing experimental conditions, the MB current obtained at the as-designed SLEI platform increases along with IL-17 increase, and the related linearity is 1.0 pg mL −1 –1.0 ng mL −1 coupled with a low detection limit of 0.3 pg mL −1 . It is expected that the SLEI platform based on Ag/GDY and MB/MOFs shows some potential application for IL-17 detection. Graphical abstract

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are used as novel adsorption materials owing to their large surface area and tunable pore size. However, the lack of selectivity considerably limits their application. Consequently, designing functionalized MOFs with specific recognition abilities is essential for enhancing their adsorption performance. Herein, we synthesized a functionalized NH 2 -UiO-66 composite modified by molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66) via a one-step polymerization process in which NH 2 -UiO-66 and MIP were formed simultaneously. Results demonstrate that MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 effectively recognized sulfamethoxazole (SMX) in complex matrices. The adsorption equilibrium was reached in only 30 min, and this fast SMX adsorption on MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 was described by the Avrami kinetic model, which indicates a spontaneous and exothermic adsorption process. Within the pH range of 3.0–10.0, MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 exhibited an optimal binding capacity for SMX, and the maximum adsorption of SMX was 68.36 mg g −1 at 25°C, which exceeded those of existing adsorption materials (< 60.10 mg g −1 ). Additionally, MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 was regenerated for ∼17 cycles compared to less than eight cycles for the other adsorbents. MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 effectively removed 90.58%–99.60% of SMX from river water, rainwater, soil, sediment, chicken, pork, and milk samples, with a relative standard deviation of less than 4.43%. The superior adsorption of SMX on MIP@NH 2 -UiO-66 was primarily driven by the synergistic effects of the imprinting sites, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic forces. The one-step polymerization method substantially simplified the synthesis process and reduced the costs, which are promising factors for the synthesis of MOFs with high selectivity.

The development of high-efficiency photocatalysts for water splitting to hydrogen (H 2 ) is crucial for alleviating energy crisis and environmental problems. In this study, a novel type-II ternary heterojunction photocatalyst, CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti)/Cu 2 O, was fabricated through the integration of NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) with Cu 2 O and carbon dots (CDs), exhibited excellent photocatalytic H 2 production rate of 12817.1 μmol/g/h with apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) of 17.13 % under visible light irradiation. Characterization revealed a uniform and dense structural integration with a high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 275.9 m 2 g −1 and a suitable energy band gap of 2.18 eV. Furthermore, the heterostructures promoted efficient photo-generated carrier separation and enhanced reduction capabilities . Notably, CDs, serving as cocatalysts or electron acceptors, improved visible light utilization and electron migration, significantly boosting H 2 production. Insights from electron spin resonance (ESR) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations supported the migration mechanisms of electrons. This work presents a significant advance in photocatalytic technology for sustainable energy by designing high-performance CDs-modified heterojunction photocatalysts.

Herein, we report a novel electrochemical sensor for determining glucose in sweat, employing a graphene/metal–organic framework (MOF) as a modifier for stainless steel (SS) electrode. The MOF structures, MIL-101(Cr), MIL-101(Cr)-NO 2 , and MIL-101(Cr)-NH 2 , were hydrothermally synthesized and then characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). XRD and SEM results proved the formation of the crystalline MIL-101(Cr) and MIL-101(Cr)-NO 2 , and the amorphous MIL-101(Cr)-NH 2 . Additionally, FT-IR and isotherms confirmed their composition and mesoporosity, respectively. The amorphous MIL-101(Cr)-NH 2 showed the best electrocatalytic activity towards glucose oxidation among the fabricated MOFs. The electrocatalytic activity was also boosted after incorporating conductive graphene. Under optimized conditions, graphene/MIL-101(Cr)-NH 2 /SS was used for glucose determination using square wave voltammetry and chronoamperometry with detection limits of 0.004 and 0.01 mM, respectively. Moreover, the modified electrode showed acceptable recovery values when it was applied to detect glucose in artificial sweat samples.

To address the issue of limited degradation efficiency due to rapid carrier recombination in piezoelectric catalysis, this study designed a ternary heterojunction structure of ZnO/CuO@UiO-66-NH 2 . A ZnO/CuO heterointerface was constructed on the surface of UiO-66-NH 2 via a hydrothermal method, forming a composite piezoelectric catalytic system with abundant active sites and enhanced built-in electric fields. Theoretical analysis indicated that UiO-66-NH 2 , as a carrier, not only significantly increased the specific surface area of the material but also cooperatively regulated the charge distribution in the heterojunction region. Under ultrasonic vibration, the piezoelectric potential generated by the ZnO/CuO heterojunction effectively drove carrier separation, thereby significantly enhancing the redox reaction efficiency. Under dark conditions, the 30-minute degradation rate of RhB by this material reached 99.7%, with a rate constant of 0.09435 min⁻¹, far superior to the pure ZnO/CuO system. Additionally, ZnO/CuO@UiO-66-NH 2 demonstrated excellent catalytic performance and cycling stability in the degradation of methyl orange and methylene blue. Band structure and radical trapping experiments confirmed that hydrogen radicals (·H) and superoxide radicals (·O 2 ⁻) were the main active species in the degradation process. This research provides new material ideas for the development of efficient and stable heterojunction piezoelectric catalysts and offers potential pathways for the construction of integrated systems for dye wastewater treatment and energy conversion.

In this paper, UiO-66-NH 2 was synthesized by a solvothermal method. Two defects were induced by the introduction of an acid modifier and an iron source during synthesis. The effect of the acid modifier on the degree of defects and adsorption properties of the material was investigated by adjusting the type of acid modifier. The results showed that the addition of Fe and benzoic acid yielded the largest specific surface area in UiO-66-NH 2 with abundant defect structures. This enabled Fe-UiO-66-NH 2 -BA to achieve 78.83% arsenic removal within 60 s. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second kinetics and the Langmuir isothermal model. Notably, the adsorption capacity of Fe-UiO-66-NH 2 -BA for arsenic in wastewater at pH 11 (2010 mg/g) was superior to those of most of the reported MOF adsorbents. The excellent arsenic adsorption capacity can be attributed to the formation of free Lewis acid sites and ligand complexation by MOF deletion linkage defects, and the adsorbent can still maintain > 80% adsorption capacity after five cycles of regeneration. In conclusion, Fe-UiO-66-NH 2 -BA, as an efficient adsorbent for efficient capture of arsenic from wastewater, provides a new concept for water purification technology.

The flexible ammonia sensor can detect the ammonia content in the air or the exhaled gas of humans, but the commonly used sensors have poor breathability and washability, so they are not suitable for direct contact with human skin. In this work, based on the excellent flexibility and permeability of nonwovens, UiO-66-NH 2 /MoS 2 @nonwoven (UMN) and UiO-66-NH 2 /MoS 2 /Ag@nonwoven (UMAN) gas sensors were prepared by loading self-prepared UiO-66-NH 2 /MoS 2 (UM) and UiO-66-NH 2 /MoS 2 /Ag (UMA) onto microfiber nonwovens. The results show that UMN and UMAN gas sensors exhibit high selectivity toward ammonia gas. The response values of UMN and UMAN demonstrate a consistent linear trend within the ammonia concentration range of 1–50 ppm and reach 43 % and 47 % at 1 ppm respectively. The response variations of the sensors before and after bending are below 4 %, demonstrating excellent bending stability. After washing for 24 h, the gas sensing performance shows nearly no change, indicating that they both have good reusability and washability. However, the sensors exhibit limited thermal and humidity stability. Given the challenges such as poor breathability and insufficient biocompatibility faced by traditional flexible gas sensors, UMN and UMAN sensors have emerged as highly promising alternatives with distinct advantages.

To overcome the limitation of low catalytic activity in nanozyme labels for immunoassay, this study proposed a heterovalent Co-doping strategy to construct the bimetallic Zr/Co-UiO-66-NH2 nanozyme. Compared to the undoped UiO-66-NH2, the resulting nanozyme exhibited a 14-fold enhancement in phosphatase-like catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km). Mechanistic investigations revealed that the activity enhancement was not only dependent on the high specific surface area and increased defects introduced by heterovalent Co doping, but also was attributed to the electronic synergy between Zr and Co. Furthermore, a fluorescent immunoassay method utilizing highly efficient Zr/Co-UiO-66-NH2 as the nanozyme label was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). This method achieved a broad linear detection range spanning 6 orders of magnitude (1 × 10–12 g/mL to 1 × 10–6 g/mL) and a detection limit as low as 0.74 × 10–12 g/mL. The high recovery rates (95.89%–99.31%) in serum samples demonstrate great potential for the detection of CEA in complex biological matrices.

Due to their rationally controlled pore size and easy functionalization, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a promising candidate for membrane separation . As one of the most stable MOFs, UiO-66 has attracted intense attention for the preparation of molecular sieving membranes. A new post-synthesis modification (PSM) strategy was developed to enhance the separation selectivity of supported UiO-66-NH 2 membranes on porous ceramic tubes called UiO-66-NH 2 @SA by using salicylaldehyde (SA) modification. The mixed gas separation factors of H 2 /CO 2 and H 2 /CH 4 can be improved due to constrictions of the pore size through reaction of –NH 2 with SA giving iminophenol moieties. Notably, SA-modified UiO-66-NH 2 membranes are rather stable, at a high operation temperature of 200 °C and 1 bar, mixture separation factors of 11.3 for H 2 /CO 2 and 22 for H 2 /CH 4 can be obtained. Further, no obvious performance degradation has been observed after 3 months storing in air. This high stability of UiO-66-NH 2 @SA membrane could provide possibility for the industrial applications of hydrogen separation and purification.

Leaching of fluoride in drinking water can lead to fluorosis. It is a good method to reduce the concentration of fluoride ion in drinking water by selecting the adsorption material with large adsorption capacity and good selectivity. Herein, the NH 2 -UiO-66 based loofah sponge modified porous composite was prepared. The composite material took loofah sponge (LS) as the carrier, and loaded NH 2 -UiO-66 on the surface of LS by in-situ growth method. The structure of the prepared NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS was investigated by PXRD , FTIR, SEM, and XPS. The influencing factors of different materials, contact time, adsorbent dosage, preliminary fluoride concentration, and co-existing anions were optimized. Compared with LS, the adsorption efficiency of NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS was greatly improved, and the adsorption capacity was 65.08 mg/g for fluoride ion. Moreover, the maximum removal efficiency of NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS was the initial fluoride concentration of 100 mg/L. Under the condition of the coexistence of other anions, the composite material has a specific adsorption performance for fluoride within 40 min. Furthermore, the data of fluoride adsorption was best fitted with pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The thermodynamic studies showed that the fluoride adsorption process on NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS was feasible, spontaneous and endothermic. In addition, synthesized NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS can be reused upto eight cycles. The plausible fluoride adsorption mechanism of NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS was majorly ruled by electrostatic attraction and complexation. Furthermore, the raw material is easy to obtain and the preparation process of NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS is simple. Hence, the large adsorption capacity of NH 2 -UiO-66 @LS compared with reported adsorbents for fluoride makes it have potential application prospect from wastewater on industrial scale.

The selective recovery of lithium from salt-lake brines using functionalized polyamide nanofiltration (NF) membranes offers a promising strategy to alleviate the global lithium resource shortage. However, the structural controllability of functional fillers and their interfacial compatibility remain critical challenges in constructing high-performance NF membranes. In this study, a polyamide NF membrane was modified with defect-engineered and gel-state UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles, combined with an external electric field, to achieve efficient Li + /Mg 2+ separation. By tuning the HCl/HAc ratio, the nucleation and growth of UiO-66-NH 2 were regulated, yielding gel-state nanoparticles with abundant defects (defect coordination number ~ 0.73), excellent dispersibility, and high protonation, facilitating interfacial integration with the polyamide matrix. In situ characterization revealed that defect-engineered and gel-state UiO-66-NH 2 enhanced the membrane's positive surface charge and formed a “spinal-like” microstructure. Under the optimal acid ratio, the nanoparticles promoted higher polyamide cross-linking, reducing the average effective pore size from 0.54 to 0.46 nm, enabling synergistic control of both physical and chemical membrane properties. With an applied electric field, monovalent ion dehydration and migration were accelerated, enhancing ion decoupling and achieving a separation factor of 83.87 for Li + /Mg 2+ at an applied current of 6 mA. This work demonstrates a triple synergistic mechanism involving interface regulation, structural optimization, and electric-field coupling, highlighting the pivotal role of gel-state defect-engineered MOFs in tuning membrane microstructure and surface charge. This finding provides new theoretical guidance and design strategies for efficient lithium recovery using electric-field assisted functional nanofiber membranes.
