Construction of a stable Zn(II)-MOF based on mixed ligand strategy for fluorescence detection of antibiotics and Fe3+ ions

Fabrication of nanofibrous membranes decorated with metal-organic frameworks for detection of pollutants in water

The environmental pollution caused by antibiotics, Fe3+ and MnO4- pollutants is becoming increasingly serious. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) were used and decorated with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to fabricated three kinds of nanofibrous membranes (NFMs) with different shapes and sizes were prepared by electrospinning technology using in situ growth method and mixed spinning method. The structures and properties of the above three kinds of NFMs were characterized. Among them, PAN@Co/Mn-MOF-74 NFM prepared by in-situ growth method based on PAN was a kind of nano-fluorescent NFM sensor with uniform structure and good fluorescence performance. It showed unique specificity and excellent sensitivity in the detection of ORN, Fe3+ and MnO4-. Compared with previously reported functionalized MOFs, PAN@Co/Mn-MOF-74 NFM has a lower limit of detection (LOD). This study provides a feasible technical route for the preparation of nano-fluorescent NFMs and the targeted detection of trace metal ions and antibiotics.

Brine available two-dimensional nano-architectonics of fluorescent probe based on phosphate doped ZIF-L for detection of Fe3

Herein, we propose a simple and effective strategy for designing a zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) fluorescent probe with a two-dimensional leaf-like structure. By doping ZIF-L with phosphate, we developed a fluorescent probe for iron (Fe3+) in systems with high salinity. The fluorescence of P-ZIF-L was quenched effectively with the presence of Fe3+. The physicochemical structure, surface morphology, selectivity, stability and composition of the probe were investigated. Under optimized conditions, the fluorescent probe had a detection limit of 0.5 μM. Furthermore, the results that the probe exhibited desirable salt-tolerance and was suitable for determination of Fe3+ in brine water samples with satisfactory results.
