This research work is about the use of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as a platform for biochemical sensing purposes.
Different metal–organic architectures were used and individual approaches were pursued, such as the synthesis of electrically conductive hybrid MOF structures as chemiresistive sensing material and the integration of MOF particles into a polymer membrane to explore their potential for sweat biomarker detection using Raman spectroscopy. The focus in each project was on the application of our MOF as sensor material and the evaluation of the signal response upon exposure to relevant analytes.
The achievements presented in this work emphasize the great
potential that metal–organic architectures have as active material for the sensing of biochemical analytes.
