The ability to control small drug release is crucial in biomedicine, especially for inhibiting the side effects of drugs, but it is still challenging. Herein, to mimic the controlled release of drugs, the release of organic molecules, e.g., small organic dyes and peptides, through Covalent Organic Framework (COF) membranes with ordered nanoscale pores has been investigated, showing constant zero-order release behaviours. Meanwhile, biological assessments show the good biocompatibility of the COF membrane-based release system, and the high stability of the COF membrane was manifested by the long-term release of small molecules in aqueous media.

Benzophenone derivatives (BPs), as synthetic chemicals widely used in personal care products, have drawn increasing attention due to their potential health risks. However, monitoring BPs in biological samples remains challenging due to their complex matrices and the deficiency in sensitivity and selectivity in current methods. Herein, a method combining hierarchically flower-like hollow covalent organic frameworks (HFH-COFs) with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was established for the enrichment and detection of BPs in serum samples.

Microtiter-plate-based systems are unified platforms of high-throughput experimentation (HTE). These polymeric devices are used worldwide on a daily basis-mainly in the pharmaceutical industry-for parallel syntheses, reaction optimization, various preclinical studies and high-throughput screening methods. Accordingly, laboratory automation today aims to handle these commercially available multiwell plates, making developments focused on their modifications a priority area of modern applied research.

Cellulose composites have exceptional qualities, particularly in removing heavy metal ions. Nevertheless, these materials' poor mechanical qualities and the restricted exposure of surface-active sites reduce the effectiveness of their removal. The removal efficiency of adsorbent materials largely depends on their macroscopic structural characteristics.

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is significantly upregulated in glioblastoma (GBM) and plays a crucial role in cell apoptosis and drug resistance. Micheliolide (MCL) is a natural product with a variety of antitumour activities, and the fumarate salt form of dimethylamino MCL (DMAMCL; commercial name ACT001) has been tested in clinical trials for recurrent GBM; this compound suppresses the proliferation of GBM cells by rewiring aerobic glycolysis. Herein, we demonstrated that MCL directly targets GAPDH through covalent binding to the cysteine 247 (Cys247) residue.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have drawn great interest in electrochemical sensing. However, most are integrated as enrichment units or reaction carriers and are co-modified with metal nanomaterials. Few studies use the single pristine COFs as an electrochemical signal amplifier.
