Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have always been a major concern as a global environmental problem. As a low-cost, high-efficiency and visual sensor, photonic crystals (PCs) have been actively studied in VOCs detection. Herein, a one-dimensional PC sensor for visual sensing of highly toxic benzene series VOC vapors is prepared for the first time by integrating a new photo-crosslinked polymer-poly(styrene-benzoylphenyl acrylate) P(St-BPA) and a high specific surface area metal-organic framework (MOF) MIL-101(Cr). The PC can detect VOCs quantitatively and visually, and clearly distinguish 7 benzene series vapors. The detection limit of the benzene series VOCs is as low as 0.06-3.45 g/m3. Meanwhile, owing to the ultra-thin layer and porous structure, the PC can reach a response equilibrium to the VOCs within 1-2.6 s. Moreover, the PC has a good organic vapor tolerance and can maintain stable optical performance after 1000 times of reuse in VOCs. Besides, 4 other PCs assembled with different aryl polymers and MOFs are first fabricated and their sensing performance to benzene series VOCs are studied and compared, which provides a valuable reference for the selection of materials for the preparation of such PC sensors.

Abstract
Vaccines are widely regarded as one of the most effective weapons in the fight against infectious diseases. Currently, vaccines must be stored and transported at low temperatures as high temperatures can lead to a loss of vaccine conformation and reduced therapeutic efficacy. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), such as zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8), are a new class of hybrid materials with large specific surface areas, high loading rates, and good biocompatibility and are successful systems for vaccine delivery and protection. Silk fibroin (SF) has a good biocompatibility and thermal stability. In this study, the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was successfully encapsulated in ZIF-8 to form HBsAg@ZIF-8 (HZ) using a one-step shake and one-pot shake method. Subsequently, the SF coating modifies HZ through hydrophobic interactions to form HBsAg/SF@ZIF-8 (HSZ), which enhanced the thermal stability and immunogenicity of HBsAg. Compared to free HBsAg, HZ and HSZ improved the thermostability of HBsAg, promoted the antigen uptake and lysosomal escape, stimulated dendritic cell maturation and cytokine secretion, formed an antigen reservoir to promote antibody production, and activated CD4+ T and CD8+ T cells to enhance memory T-cell production. Importantly, HSZ induced a strong immune response even after 14 days of storage at 25 °C. Furthermore, the nanoparticles prepared by the one-step shake method exhibited superior properties compared to those prepared by the one-pot shake method. This study highlights the importance of SF-coated ZIF-8, which holds promise for investigating thermostable vaccines and breaking the vaccine cold chain.

Abstract
Cross-responsive chemical sensors are in high demand owing to their ability to distinguish a broad range of analytes. In this study, a vapochromic sensor array based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which exhibits distinct patterns when exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and humidity, is developed. Conventional sensor arrays consist of various receptors that produce different responses. The vapochromic MOF-based sensor comprises dicopper paddlewheel clusters and dimethylamine azobenzene as binary colorimetric sensing moieties. Upon exposure to VOCs, the constructed sensor encompasses a broad spectrum of colors, ranging from green to red. Furthermore, the color of the MOF is influenced by the solvent used during the pretreatment. Consequently, monolayered MOF thin films can be adapted to multicomponent array systems by immersing the MOF in different solvents. This system provides both qualitative and quantitative sensing, generating unique color patterns corresponding to specific VOC types. Notably, the sensor successfully discriminates each of 14 common VOCs and water and accurately categorizes unknown samples. Moreover, the system undergoes reversible color changes in response to humidity, obviating the need for high-temperature regeneration steps. This novel approach offers insights into the versatile applications of MOFs by creating a colorimetric sensor array capable of detecting various analytes.

Abstract
Designing a metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived nanozyme with highly dispersed active sites and high catalytic activity as well as robust structure for colorimetric biosensing of diverse biomolecules remains a substantial challenge. Here, an MOF-derived highly dispersed and pure α-cobalt confined in a nitrogen-doped carbon nanofiber (α-Co@NCNF) nanozyme with superior glucose oxidase (GOD)- and peroxidase (POD)-like activities was constructed for colorimetric assay of multiple biomolecules. Specifically, the α-Co@NCNF nanozyme was synthesized, utilizing in situ electrospinning Co-MOFs into polyacrylonitrile nanofiber (PAN) followed by a pyrolysis process. Taking advantage of the in situ electrospinning strategy, the α-Co nanoparticles were confined in continuous porous NCNF to restrict the growth and prevent the aggregation and oxidation during the pyrolysis process. The resulting special structure considerably improved the enzyme-like performance. A series of experiments validate that the enzyme-like activity of the α-Co@NCNF nanozyme was superior to that of Co@CoO@NCNF (derivatives from Co-MOFs grown on the surface of PAN nanofiber) and nature enzymes. Furthermore, α-Co@NCNF nanozyme-based colorimetric biosensing was developed for monitoring glucose, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and glutathione (GSH) and the corresponding linear ranges are 0.1-50 and 50-900 μM and 5-55 and 0.1-20 μM accompanied by the corresponding low detection of 0.03, 1.66, and 0.03 μM. The proposed method for the construction of α-Co@NCNF nanozyme with dual enzyme-like properties provides a new insight for designing novel nanozymes and has prospects for application in colorimetric biosensing.

Abstract
Porous organic frameworks (POFs) have become a highly sought-after research domain that offers a promising avenue for developing cutting-edge nanostructured materials, both in their pristine state and when subjected to various chemical and structural modifications. Metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, and hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks are examples of these emerging materials that have gained significant attention due to their unique properties, such as high crystallinity, intrinsic porosity, unique structural regularity, diverse functionality, design flexibility, and outstanding stability. This review provides an overview of the state-of-the-art research on base-stable POFs, emphasizing the distinct pros and cons of reticular framework nanoparticles compared to other types of nanocluster materials. Thereafter, the review highlights the unique opportunity to produce multifunctional tailoring nanoparticles to meet specific application requirements. It is recommended that this potential for creating customized nanoparticles should be the driving force behind future synthesis efforts to tap the full potential of this multifaceted material category.

This review summarizes and studies the most recent progress on MOF sensors for detecting food contaminants such as pesticides, antibiotics, toxins, biomolecules, and ionic species. First, with the introduction of MOFs, food contaminants and materials for toxicants detection are discussed. Then the insights into the MOFs as emerging materials for sensing applications with luminescent and electrochemical properties, signal changes, and sensing mechanisms are discussed. Next, recent advances in luminescent and electrochemical MOFs food sensors and their sensitivity, selectivity, and capacities for common food toxicants are summarized.

Abstract
Structural asymmetry affecting the nonlinear optics (NLO) of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is very important in fundamentals and applications but is still a challenge. Herein we develop a series of indium-porphyrinic framework (InTCPP) thin films and provide the first study on the coordination-induced symmetry breaking on their third-order NLO. The continuous and oriented InTCPP(H2) thin films were grown on quartz substrates and then postcoordinated with different cations (Fe2+ or Fe3+Cl-) in InTCPP(H2) (named InTCPP(Fe2+) and InTCPP(Fe3+Cl-)). The third-order NLO results reveal the Fe2+ and Fe3+Cl- coordinated InTCPP thin films have substantially enhanced NLO performance. Moreover, InTCPP(Fe3+Cl-) thin films cause symmetry breaking of microstructures, resulting in a 3-fold increase in the nonlinear absorption coefficient (up to 6.35 × 10-6 m/W) compared to InTCPP(Fe2+). This work not only develops a series of nonlinear optical MOF thin films but also provides new insight into symmetry breaking on MOFs for nonlinear optoelectronic applications.
