Electrochemical nanostructured CuBTC/FeBTC MOF composite sensor for enrofloxacin detection.

A novel electrochemical sensor for the detection of enrofloxacin (ENR) in aqueous solutions has been developed using a carbon paste electrode modified with a mixture of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) of CuBTC and FeBTC. These MOFs were successfully synthesized via a solvothermal method and characterized using various techniques, including X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The MOF mixture exhibited a particle size ranging from 40 to 100 nm, a high surface area of 1147 m/g, a pore volume of 0.

The medicinal plant Peucedanum japonicum Thunberg: A review of traditional use, phytochemistry, and pharmacology.

Peucedanum japonicum (the family Umbelliferae) is a perennial herbaceous plant with various crucial traditional values for coughs, colds, headaches, and inflammatory responses. For drug developments, the current research aims to offer an overview of the previous results in the three main aspects of traditional use, phytochemistry, pharmacological values, and molecular mechanisms regarding this medicinal species. By chromatographic analysis and separation, more than 120 isolated compounds have been obtained.

A novel bimetallic MOFs combined with gold nanoflakes in electrochemical sensor for measuring bisphenol A.

In this paper, a novel bimetallic Fe-Cu metal-organic framework combined with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Fe-Cu-BTC) are synthesized using hydrothermal reaction. The bimetallic Fe-Cu-BTC with high BET (1504 cm g) and high Langmuir surface area (1831 cm g) is composited by gold nanoparticles to improve the conductivity and to develop their synergistic effect. A novel bisphenol A (BPA) sensor was prepared by dropcasting Fe-Cu-BTC on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) followed by AuNPs electrodeposition.
