An effective approach for the immobilization and protection of biological entities is their encapsulation via the in situ synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). To ensure the preservation of the bioentities, mild synthetic conditions, including aqueous media and ambient conditions (temperature and pressure), are preferred. In this study, we investigated the synthesis of various aluminum polycarboxylate-based MOFs, including the fumarate, terephthalate, amino-terephthalate, and muconate forms of MIL-53(Al), as well as the MIL-110 and MIL-160 MOF types. The potential as immobilization matrices was then assessed using bovine serum albumin (BSA). Finally, was selected for the encapsulation of a mixture of polysaccharides and more structurally complex bioentities (viruses).

Metal complexes with tunable ligands play a crucial role in olefin polymerization and impart control over molecular weight, crystallinity, and stereoregularity. We report the single-step synthesis of imine-phenoxy ligands in excellent yields (81-93%). The identity of electronically tuned imine-phenoxy ligands was unambiguously ascertained by using a combination of spectroscopic and analytical methods.

A novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of miRNA-155, based on the synergistic combination of multifunctional nanomaterials. The biosensor employed a conductive metal-organic framework (MOF), Ni(HAB) (HAB = hexaaminobenzene), as the substrate material. The unique π-electron conjugated structure of Ni(HAB) endowed the biosensor with excellent electron transport properties, significantly enhancing its sensitivity.

The growing use of adjuvants in the fast-paced formulation of new vaccines has created an unprecedented need for meaningful analytical assays that deliver reliable quantitative data from complex adjuvant and adjuvant-antigen mixtures. Due to their complex chemical and physical properties, method development for the separation of vaccine adjuvants is considered a highly challenging and laborious task. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) is among the most important tests in the (bio)pharmaceutical industry for release and stability indicating measurements including adjuvant content, identity, and purity profile.

Coal mines are one of the largest sources of energy supply and generate significant volumes of wastewater. Chemical coagulation is one of the most effective methods for wastewater treatment. In this research, ferric and aluminum-based coagulants, along with polyacrylamide flocculants with positive, negative, and neutral charges, were utilized in chemical coagulation.
