Novel copper metal organic framework nanoparticles Cu-MOF-NPs (C1) were prepared via two simple alternative methods and confirmed by analytical characterization using mass, IR, Raman, XRD spectrum, HR-TEM and TGA-DSC. Mass spectroscopy revealed the molecular ion peak at 647 m/z for the monomeric unit structure n[Cu(AIP)2(PIY)(H2O)2]·4H2O, the presence of which was further supported by mass fragmentation. The Raman spectrum revealed two separate peaks corresponding to D and G bands of carbon in the structure of C1. Moreover, TGA-DSC showed the presence of CuO. XRD data were typically consistent with Raman and TGA-DSC data. In addition, HR-TEM revealed that the morphology of the C1 nanoparticles is uniform with well-distributed elliptical/spherical particles with a size range from 7 to 19 nm. The spectrophotometric and biological activity studies based on Cu-MOF-NPs were analyzed. The results indicated that Cu-MOF-NPs (C1) were successfully used as biosensors for the assessment of the triiodothyronine hormone (T3). The calibration plot was achieved over the concentration range of 40.0-100.0 ng dl-1 T3 with limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) of 1.46 and 4.85 ng dl-1, respectively, and a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.973. Moreover, the Cu-MOF-NPs (C1) show more enhanced biological activity against various pathogens (five strains of bacteria: Gram positive and Gram negative) when compared to an antibacterial agent and the effectiveness of Cu-MOF-NPs increases with increasing particle dose. The interactions of MOF-NPs (C1) with the biological targets were studied.
In this paper, a novel lanthanum metal–organic framework La‐MOF was prepared via hydrothermal and reflux methods. The La‐MOF was achieved through the reaction of a 5‐amino‐isophthalic acid with 1, 2‐phenylenediamine and lanthanum chloride. The prepared La‐MOF structure was confirmed by XRD, mass spectrometry, IR, UV–Vis and elemental analysis, whereas the size, and morphology was examined by FE‐SEM/EDX and HR‐TEM. The results indicated that the La‐MOF prepared via both methods have the same structure and composition. Meanwhile, the MOF yield, reaction time, morphology, physiochemical and sensing properties were highly depended on the used preparation method. The photoluminescence (PL) study was carried out for the La‐MOF, and the results showed that La‐MOF exhibits strong emission at 558 nm after excitation at 369 nm. Moreover, the PL data indicating that the La‐MOF has highly selective sensing properties for iron (III) competing with different metal ions. The Stern‐Völmer graph shows a linear calibration curve which achieved over a concentration range 1.0–500 μM of Fe3+ with a correlation coefficient, detection, and quantitation limits 0.998, 1.35 μM and 4.08 μM, respectively. According to the remarkable quenching of the PL intensity of La‐MOF using various concentrations of Fe3+, it was successfully used as a sensor for Fe3+detecting in different water resources (pure and waste) samples. The quenching mechanism was studied and it has a dynamic type and due to efficient energy transfer between the La‐MOF and Fe3+.
The analytical detection and quantification of abuse drugs such as morphine (MOR) in biological samples are vital missions and remains to attract challenges for forensic toxicology, law enforcement, world antidoping organization, and social health fields. MOR, a benchmark analgesic drug known as "pain killer", is one of the powerful opioid medications for relieving pain, and overdose of MOR is toxic. In this article, novel promising chromium metal−organic framework nanoparticles [Cr(III)-MOF-NPs] were produced via facile synthesis and characterized using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, elemental analysis, UV−vis, Fourier transform infrared, and thermogravimetry/differential scanning calorimetry, as well as photoluminescence (PL) investigation and magnetic properties. The PL study results revealed that the Cr(III)-MOF-NPs exhibited an emission band at 593 nm. The Cr(III)-MOF-NPs could be used in fast, selective, and sensitive MOR detection and quantification. Under the optimum experimental conditions, with the addition of MOR, a blueshift from 593 to 566 nm occurred with a remarkable PL intensity enhancement, and the color changed from brown to yellow (visually/naked-eye detection). The Cr(III)-MOF-NPs optical chemosensor exhibited a stable response for MOR in a concentration range between 0.1 and 350 nM. The detection and quantification limits were 0.167 and 0.443 nM, respectively, with a correlation coefficient (r 2 ) of 0.96. The developed PL chemosensor showed high selectivity for MOR over other competing interfering matrices. Moreover, the ultrasensitive chemosensor was extensively used for the determination of MOR spiked in different real samples (serum and urine samples) with acceptable recoveries and satisfactory results.
A novel organic nano linker (NL) and manganese metal–organic framework (Mn–MOF) were synthesized and fully characterized. A promising cardiac troponin-I potentiometric biosensor based on Mn–MOF could be used for early myocardial infarction diagnosis.
A copper metal–organic framework nanoparticles (Cu‐MOF‐NPs) synthesized via simple technique. The prepared Cu‐MOF‐NPs nanoparticles were further characterized using 1H‐NMR, FE‐SEM/EDX and thermal study (DSC/TGA). The FE‐SEM/EDX, thermal analysis, and NMR spectrum data with the other analysis support the nano‐Cu‐MOF structure and the monomeric unit (n[Cu (AIP)2(APY)(H2O)2].4H2O) of Cu‐MOF‐NPs. The photoluminescence (PL) studies of triiodothyronine hormone (T3) based on the prepared Cu‐MOF‐NPs investigated. The results revealed that the Cu‐MOF‐NPs might be used as a biosensor in the determination of triiodothyronine hormone (T3) in biological fluids through a significant quenching of the photoluminescence intensity of Cu‐MOF‐NPs at excitation wavelength 492 nm. The calibration plot achieved over the concentration range 0.0–200.0 ng/dL T3 hormone with a correlation coefficient 0.996 and limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) 0.198 and 0.60 ng/dL, respectively. The PL spectra are indicating that Cu‐MOF‐NPs has highly selective sensing properties for T3 hormone without interfering with other human many hormones types. This approach considered a promising analytical tool for early diagnosis of the cases of thyroid disease. The mechanism of quenching between the Cu‐MOF‐NPs, and T3 hormone studied. The mechanism was a dynamic type and obtained due to the energy transfer mechanism.
