With high specific surface area and pore structural diversity, MOFs show important applications in gas storage, catalysis, sensing, separation, and biomedicine. However, the stability of the structure of MOFs has restricted their application and development. In this study, zirconium metal organic frameworks with 9,10-dicarboxylic acid anthracene as ligand, named UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$), were synthesized and their properties and structures were characterized by XRD, SEM, and $N_2$ adsorption. We focus on the stability of the structure of UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) under different conditions (acid, alkali, and water). The structural changes or ruins of UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) were traced by means of XRD, TG, and FT-IR under different conditions. The results show that the UIO-66 ($H_2DCA$) materials are stable at 583 K, and that this structural stability is greatly influenced by different types of acid and alkali compounds. Importantly, we found that the structures maintain their stability in environments of nitric acid, triethylamine, and boiling water.

본 논문에서는 UIO-66에 항체 기능성을 도입한 유무기 하이브리드 소재를 합성하고 이를 표면 플라즈몬 공명(surface plasmon resonance, SPR) 분석법에 접목하여 옥시토신과 같은 작은 분자를 검출하는 감도를 향상시키고자 하였다. 옥시토신은 암, 알츠하이머, 심부전증 진단에 중요한 생물학적 표지 펩타이드 분자로 알려져 있으며, 이를 수 펨토몰(femtomole, fM) 농도 수준까지 검출하기 위해 다공성이며 표면적이 우수한 metal organic frameworks 중 하나인 UiO-66-(COOH)₂ 소재를 신호증폭용으로 활용하면서 옥시토신에 특이적인 항체 페어를 이용하는 표면 샌드위치 분석법을 개발함으로써 선택성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 선정한 각 옥시토신 특이적 항체가 옥시토신에 대해 강하게 결합하는지 그리고 각 항체가 옥시토신의 서로 다른 결합사이트에 결합하는지를 실시간 SPR 분석법으로 확인하였다. 선정한 항체 중 한 개(예: anti-OXT [OTI5G4])를 SPR용 금 박막 칩 표면에 고정하고, 옥시토신을 흘려준 후, UiO-66-(COOH)₂에 컨쥬게이션된 다른 항체(예: anti-OXT[4G11])를 순차적으로 흘려주어 표면에 샌드위치 복합체(anti-OXT[OTI5G4]/옥시토신/UiO-66-(COOH)₂-anti-OXT[4G11])를 형성하였을 때 옥시토신 농도에 따라 SPR 신호가 변화하는 것을 실시간으로 모니터링하였다. 그 결과, UiO-66-(COOH)₂를 사용하지 않았을 때 대비 약 백만 배 이상 감도를 증폭시켜 약 10 fM까지 검출 가능함을 보여주었다.

Fast industrial and agricultural expansion result in the production of heavy metal ions (HMIs). These are exceedingly hazardous to both humans and the environment, and the necessity to eliminate them from aqueous systems prompts the development of novel materials. In the present study, a UIO-66 (COOH)₂ metal-organic framework (MOF) containing free carboxylic acid groups was post-synthetically modified with L-glutamic acid via the solid-solid reaction route. Pristine and glutamic acid-treated MOF materials were characterized in detail using several physicochemical techniques. Single-ion batch adsorption studies of Pb(II) and Hg(II) ions were carried out using pristine as well as amino acid-modified MOFs. We further examined parameters that influence removal efficiency, such as the initial concentration and contact time. The bare MOF had a higher ion adsorption capacity for Pb(II) (261.87 mg/g) than for Hg(II) ions (10.54 mg/g) at an initial concentration of 150 ppm. In contrast, an increased Hg(II) ion adsorption capacity was observed for the glutamic acid-modified MOF (80.6 mg/g) as compared to the bare MOF. The Hg(II) ion adsorption capacity increased by almost 87% after modification with glutamic acid. Fitting results of isotherm and kinetic data models indicated that the adsorption of Pb(II) on both pristine and glutamic acid-modified MOFs was due to surface complexation of Pb(II) ions with available -COOH groups (pyromellitic acid). Adsorption of Hg(II) on the glutamic acid-modified MOF was attributed to chelation, in which glutamic acid grafted onto the surface of the MOF formed chelates with Hg(II) ions.
