In this study, a novel magnetic composite, Ag@Fe 3 O 4 /UiO-66-NH 2 (Ag@FUN), was developed by incorporating a porous metal-organic framework (MOF), UiO-66-NH 2 , which offers selective enrichment capabilities and facilitates solar-driven photoreduction of Cr(VI). The surface coverage of silver nanoparticles on Ag@FUN was precisely controlled by adjusting the AgNO 3 feed concentration, enabling tunable SERS sensitivity. SERS measurements revealed that the Ag@FUN composites exhibited strong signal intensity for Cr(VI), along with excellent signal reproducibility and storage stability. These composites were capable of detecting Cr(VI) at concentrations of as low as 7.81 × 10 -8 M in tap water and 8.89 × 10 -8 M in pond water. The remarkable SERS performance is attributed to the porous MOF structure, which enriches Cr(VI) via Zr–O coordination, electrostatic interactions, and pore-filling effects. Importantly, under simulated sunlight, Ag@FUN effectively reduced Cr(VI) within 70 minutes. The composites also demonstrated outstanding recyclability, retaining their SERS sensitivity and photocatalytic efficiency through five consecutive "detection–reduction" cycles. Overall, the Ag@FUN composites developed in this work exhibit high SERS sensitivity and robust photocatalytic activity, offering significant potential for environmental monitoring and ecological remediation.

A method is described for simultaneous voltammetric determination of the pesticides triazophos (TRS) and thiacloprid (THD). A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with a metal-organic framework (type UiO-66-NH 2 ) which has a large specific surface (1018 m 2 ·g −1 ) and contains large amounts of Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions, with adsorption capacities of 230 and 271 mg·g −1 , respectively. The antigen-loaded particles were then bound to antibody, magnetically separated, and analyzed by square wave voltammetry to give signals for Cd(II) and Pb(II) at −0.82 and − 0.56 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) for TRS and THD, respectively. Under optimized conditions, the method has a wide linear range (0.2–750 ng·mL −1 ) and low detection limits (0.07 and 0.1 ng·mL −1 at a S/N of 3 for TRS and THD, respectively). It is perceived that this assay represents a useful tool for simultaneous determination of multiple pesticide residues. The method has a wide scope in that may be extended to monitoring of other small organic pollutants by changing the types of metal ions and by using other antibodies.
Schematic presentation of an amino-modified metal-organic framework (type UiO-66-NH 2 ) loaded with Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions for simultaneous electrochemical immunosensing of triazophos (TRS) and thiacloprid (THD).

To increase the fire safety of epoxy resin, this study employed a layer-by-layer self-assembly method to prepare a biologically flame-retardant coating-modified zirconium-based metal-organic framework (chitosan/phytic acid (CS/PA) @UiO-66). This study also attempted to incorporate boron nitride (BN) to enhance the flame-retardant properties of epoxy resin composites. The results from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed the successful synthesis of UiO-66 and illustrated the assembly of CS and PA onto UiO-66 through a self-assembly strategy. Thermogravimetric analysis in conjunction with cone calorimetry and Raman spectroscopy analyses indicated that incorporating biologically-based flame-retardant coating-modified CS/PA@UiO-66 and BN nanosheets could effectively increase the flame-retardant performance of epoxy composites. Compared with pure epoxy resin, the incorporation of CS/PA@UiO-66-3 and CS/PA@UiO-66-3/BN led to a reduction in the peak heat release rate and total heat release values of 61.13% and 22.36% for EP/CS/PA@UiO-66-3 and EP/CS/PA@UiO-66-3/BN, respectively. Notably, EP/CS/PA@UiO-66-3/BN presented a continuous and dense char layer surface with increased graphite arrangement and higher residual char content after thermal degradation and combustion, thereby providing effective suppression of heat, mass, and oxygen transfer, demonstrating promising flame-retardant efficacy. Consequently, this study successfully improved the fire safety of epoxy resin and presented a new approach for the use of biologically-based flame-retardants.

A bifunctional fluorescent and colorimetric sensor based on UiO-66-NH₂@RhB was developed for the highly sensitive detection of perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), a persistent environmental pollutant. The sensing mechanism relies on the inner filter effect (IFE), where Rhodamine B (RhB) modulates the fluorescence of UiO-66-NH₂, enabling effective PFOS recognition. In the presence of PFOS, UiO-66-NH 2 @RhB exhibits dual emissions in blue fluorescence at 448 nm and red fluorescence at 565 nm at a single excitation wavelength. Upon the addition of increasing concentrations of PFOS, the blue fluorescence intensity increased and a small change was observed in the red fluorescence intensity. Besides, UiO-66-NH 2 @RhB solutions display an excellent colorimetric response for PFOS and produce an obvious color change from red to colorless. The method demonstrated high sensitivity, achieving linear detection ranges of 1–10 nM with detection limits of 0.84 nM (fluorescence) and 0.91 nM (colorimetry). Furthermore, the dual-sensing platform successfully detected PFOS in real water samples with satisfactory outcomes. Its integration with a portable smartphone further enables intelligent, real-time, on-site monitoring and is successfully applied to monitoring PFOS in environmental samples. This study not only broadens the application of MOFs but also provides valuable insights for designing multifunctional sensors for diverse analytical applications. Graphical abstract

Developing a green and efficient technology for decomposing aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1 ) and ochratoxin A (OTA) in grains has important theoretical value and application prospects for ensuring food safety. A dual Z-scheme ternary heterojunction photocatalyst, Sr 2 MgSi 2 O 7 :Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ /BiVO 4 /NH 2 -UiO-66 (SBN), was prepared via a self-assembling hydrothermal approach. The SBN heterojunction photocatalyst exhibits round-the-clock photocatalytic activity due to the intrinsic light source of Sr 2 MgSi 2 O 7 : Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ (SMS). Dual Z-scheme mechanism was proposed and validated through detailed analysis of quenching experiments, ESR spectra, band arrangement, and charge transfer processes. The dual Z-scheme mechanism not only promotes the effective transfer and separation of photo generated charge carriers during charge carrier transport, but also maintains significant reduction and oxidation potentials. SBN photocatalyst exhibits stable and persistent photocatalytic performance, significantly enhancing the degradation efficiency of AFB 1 and OTA under all-weather conditions. Experimental data shows that the removal rate of AFB 1 increased from 69.60 % after 60 min of illumination to 83.9 % after 4 h of turning off the light source; At the same time, the removal rate of OTA increased from 64.8 % to 78.1 %. •O 2 − and •OH were identified as key active species in photocatalytic reactions. Based on the analysis of AFB 1 and OTA degradation intermediates and the prediction of degradation sites using density functional theory (DFT), degradation pathways for AFB 1 and OTA were proposed. Collectively, these findings suggest a highly promising practical approach for the detoxification of mycotoxins in grain commodities.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent an emerging family of noncoding transcripts defined by closed-loop architecture, which are now established as key participants in the etiology of tumorigenesis and malignant progression. While circRNAs show potential as therapeutic targets and biomarkers, the accurate detection of circRNAs remains challenging due to interference from homologous linear RNAs. In this study, an ultrasensitive method for detecting circ_0051240 based on the sulfhydrated toehold capture probe-initiator assembly-mediated hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and the CRISPR-Cas12a system was developed. The capture probe (with a toehold domain)-initiator strand duplex was ingeniously fabricated to identify the back-splice junction (BSJ) of circRNA. After magnetic enrichment and separation by the Fe 3 O 4 -Au@UIO-66-NH 2 nanocomposite, the initiator strand (H0) was delivered to trigger HCR. The HCR product dsDNA concatemers contained multiply repeated CRISPR-targetable DNA sites that were readily recognized by the CRISPR RNA (crRNA). This specific recognition and binding activated the CRISPR-Cas12a system's collateral endonuclease activity, leading to cleavage of the fluorophore-quencher (FQ) reporters and fluorescence emission at a characteristic wavelength. This design eliminated linear RNA-related interference and enhanced the detection of fluorescence intensity (FI). Under optimal conditions, the proposed HCR/CRISPR-Cas12a method exhibited a wide quantitative measurement range spanning from 45 pM up to 180 nM, achieving a notable limit of detection (LOD) of 0.03 pM. In this study, a novel circRNA sensing strategy capable of accurate and highly sensitive quantification of ovarian cancer-specific circRNA was reported. The proposed method exhibits acceptable performance when compared to present approaches.

The heterogeneously tandem catalytic synthesis is a step-economic and work-up-saving strategy for producing chemicals, but it usually requires a special catalyst to achieve the sequential catalytic reactions . The development of metal organic frameworks provides an opportunity to fabricate multifunctional catalysts. In this work, a MOF-based sandwich-nanostructure catalyst UiO-66-NH 2 @Pt@PCN-222 is fabricated, which is made of the UiO-66-NH 2 as the core, Pt nanoparticles as the interlayer, and the defective PCN-222 as the shell. The developed catalyst shows outstanding performance for the tandem catalytic synthesis, which is the hydrogenation of nitroarenes cascaded with β-dicarbonyl compounds to form β-ketoenamines. The selectivity of β-ketoenamines reached 98% upon the completed hydrogenation of p-nitrotoluene. The stable PCN-222 shell can be regarded as an active armor, which not only protects the Pt particles from leaching or agglomerating, but also has plenty of acid sites that are conducive to the second-step condensation. At the same time, the kinetic studies show that the armor layer also affects the activity of hydrogenation, so that the hydrogenation and condensation reactions can proceed simultaneously to give the best selectivity. Various substituted dicarbonyl compounds and structurally different nitroarenes completed the conversion with excellent conversion (90–99%) and selectivity (87–98%), and this nanocatalyst can be recycled for up to six cycles without the expense of activity.

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.

Designing recyclable photocatalysts with high activity and stability has drawn considerable attention in the fields of sewage treatment. Herein, a series of heterojunctions constructed by zirconium-based metal–organic frameworks (UiO-66-NH 2 ) and tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ) is immobilized on carbon cloth via a facile solvothermal method , resulting in highly recyclable photocatalysts. Multiple characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy , X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, verify the successful synthesis of UiO-66-NH 2 nanospheres on the surface of needlelike WO 3 modified carbon cloth. Results show that the optimal heterojunction photocatalyst exhibits excellent photocatalytic degradation efficiency for the removal of tetracycline (TC) from water, for which nearly 100% of TC is degraded within 60 min under visible light . Trapping experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra analyses demonstrate that the superoxide radicals O 2 – and photogenerated hole h + play a dominant role in the degradation process. Excellent photocatalytic activity is dominantly attributed to the effective separation of photoinduced carriers in this type-Ⅱ heterostructure system. Moreover, the possible photocatalytic oxidation degradation pathway is confirmed by analyzing intermediates using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS). This study offers a highly efficient strategy to design recyclable heterojunction photocatalysts for the degradation of refractory antibiotics in sewage.

Pb(II), a highly toxic heavy metals that targets the human nervous system, has contaminated water and food in recent years. The nanomaterial of Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) possesses superior removal performances. However, their practical application is limited by their nature of fine powdery. Herein, we developed robust MOFs film without the adding of polymer in MOFs ink and the modification of the substrate, which was achieved by choosing appropriate substrate of gelatin hydrogel with functional groups and simple thermal-treatment after coating UiO-66-NO 2 onto gelatin hydrogel. The volatilization of the UiO-66-NO 2 dispersant ethyl acetate promotes the rearrangement and dense accumulation of UiO-66-NO 2 crystals to form a dense UiO-66-NO 2 film. During the following thermal-treatment process, –COOH of UiO-66-NO 2 and –NH 2 of gelatin chemically reacted to establish the stable composites of UiO-66-NO 2 film and gelatin hydrogel. The results of batch adsorption experiments demonstrate that adsorption behaviors of the as-synthesized gelatin/UiO-66-NO 2 film composite hydrogels can be explained by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model, stating that this adsorption process involves with a chemical monolayer adsorption. Besides, gelatin/UiO-66-NO 2 film composite hydrogels own satisfactory removal efficiency for Pb(II) in apple juice, and the adsorption process has little impairment on the quality of apple juice. These results suggest that MOFs film is suitable for water decontamination and food safety control fields.

Efficient nitric oxide (NO) removal without nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) emission is desired for the control of air pollution. Herein, a series of (Zr/Ti)UiO-66-NH 2 with congenetic shell–core structure, denoted as Ti-UION, are rapidly synthesized by microwave-assisted post-synthetic modification for NO removal. The optimal Ti-UION (i.e., 2.5Ti-UION) exhibits the highest activity of 80.74% without NO 2 emission with moisture, which is 21.65% greater than that of the UiO-66-NH 2 . The NO removal efficiency of 2.5Ti-UION further increases to 95.92% without photocatalyst deactivation under an anhydrous condition. This is because selectively produced NO 2 in photocatalysis is completely adsorbed into micropores, refreshing active sites for subsequent reaction. In addition, the enhanced photocatalytic activity after Ti substitution is due to the presence of Ti electron acceptor, the potential difference between the shell and core of Ti-UION crystal, and the high conductivity of Ti O units. Additionally, the improved adsorption of gas molecules not only favors NO oxidation, but also avoids the emission of NO 2 . This work provides a feasible strategy for rapid metal substitution in metal-organic frameworks and insights into enhanced NO photodegradation.
