Determining 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in aqueous solution is of great importance for public security, environment, and public health protection. The covalent organic framework (COF) based fluoresce probes are still of interest in developing the sensor-based detection systems for TNT. So, a novel fluorescence solid-state probe based on a melamine-based COF (SNW1)for TNT detection was established for the first time.

Manganese oxides are readily available, low-cost, and biocompatible materials, but their low conductivity limits their efficiency as sensors. Today, morphology engineering of manganese oxide has been one of the most common research topics, because manganese oxides' electrochemical properties are highly dependent on their morphologies.

The study presented here describes the characterization and synthesis of a triazine-based covalent organic framework using different analytical procedures such as scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The synthesized COF was then utilized as an electrocatalytic modifier for the selective and sensitive determination of Pb and Cd at nanomolar levels via square wave anodic stripping voltammetry. A Plackett-Burman design was employed to screen operational parameters influencing the sensitivity of the electroanalytical method, followed by optimization of the significant variables using Box-Behnken design.
