Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 modified magnetic halloysite nanotube (MHNTs@ZIF-8) composites were synthesized and evaluated for the first time as an efficient sorbent for the magnetic solid-phase extraction (mSPE) of carbamate pesticides (CPs) from water samples. MHNTs were prepared by coprecipitation, and MHNTs@ZIF-8 composites were assembled at room temperature. After characterization, MHNTs@ZIF-8 was used to extract pirimicarb, propoxur, carbaryl, isoprocarb and fenobucarb π-π stacking interaction and hydrophobic interaction between the imidazole skeleton of ZIF-8 and benzene rings or benzene-like rings in CPs, as well as the hydrogen bond formed between O in CPs and H in ZIF-8. The effects of the amount of sorbent, ionic strength, type and volume of desorption solvent and adsorption/desorption time were investigated. Under optimum conditions, good linearity was obtained for the analysis of CPs by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) with ≥ 0.9992. The limits of quantification range from 3 to 40 ng L in water. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) were <7%, = 5, within a batch and <9% among batches. The spiked recoveries were between 81 and 104%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of CPs in various water samples.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has been extensively studied as a precursor for nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) materials due to its high surface area, tunable porosity, and adjustable nitrogen content. However, the intrinsic microporous structure of the ZIF-8 limits mass transport and accessibility of reactants to active sites, reducing its effectiveness in electrochemical applications. In this study, a soft templating approach using a triblock copolymer was used to prepare mesoporous ZIF-8-derived NC (Meso-ZIF-NC) samples.

The development of copper-based materials with a high efficiency and low cost is desirable for use in iodine (I) remediation. Herein, Cu-nanoparticles-functionalized, ZIF-8 (Zeolite Imidazole Framework-8)-derived, nitrogen-doped carbon composites (Cu@Zn-NC) were synthesized by ball milling and pyrolysis processes. The as-prepared composites were characterized using SEM, BET, XRD, XPS, and FT-IR analyses.

The escalating hazards posed by bacterial infections underscore the imperative for pioneering advancements in next-generation antibacterial modalities and treatments. Present therapeutic methodologies are frequently impeded by the constraints of insufficient biofilm infiltration and the absence of precision in pathogen-specific targeting. In this current study, we have used chlorin e6 (Ce6), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), polydopamine (PDA), and UBI peptide to formulate an innovative nanosystem meticulously engineered to confront bacterial infections and effectually dismantle biofilm architectures through the concerted mechanism of photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) therapies, including in-depth research, especially for oral bacteria and oral biofilm.

Sugarcane smut is a widespread fungal disease, which severely impairs the quality and sugar yield of sugarcane. Early detection is crucial for mitigating its impact, which makes the development of a highly sensitive and accurate detection method essential. Herein, the Mn-doped zeolite imidazolate framework (ZIF-67), synthesized via a nano-confined-reactor approach, is designed to significantly enhance electron transport and boost the enzyme loading capacity within biofuel cells, thereby potentially enhancing their overall performance.

It is crucial yet challenging to sensitively quantify low-abundance biomarkers in blood for early screening and diagnosis of various diseases. Herein, an analytical model of intra-mesopore immunoassay (IMIA) was proposed, which was competent to examine various biomarkers at the femtomolar level. The success is rooted in the design of an innovative superparamagnetic core-shell structure with FeO nanoparticles (NPs) at the core and hierarchically porous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks as a shell (FeO@HPZIF-8), achieved through a soft-template directed self-assembly coupled with confinement growth mechanism.
