Abstract
Achieving ultrasensitive and rapid detection of 3-methylbutyraldehyde is crucial for monitoring chemical intermediate leakage in pharmaceutical and chemical industries as well as diagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia by monitoring exhaled gas. However, developing a sensitive and rapid method for detecting 3-methylbutyraldehyde poses challenges. Herein, a wireless chemiresistive gas sensor based on a mesoporous ZnO-SnO2 heterostructure is fabricated to enable the ultrasensitive and rapid detection of 3-methylbutyraldehyde for the first time. The mesoporous ZnO-SnO2 heterostructure exhibits a uniform spherical shape (∼79 nm in diameter), a high specific surface area (54.8 m2 g-1), a small crystal size (∼4 nm), and a large pore size (6.7 nm). The gas sensor demonstrates high response (18.98@20 ppm), short response/recovery times (13/13 s), and a low detection limit (0.48 ppm) toward 3-methylbutyraldehyde. Furthermore, a real-time monitoring system is developed utilizing microelectromechanical systems gas sensors. The modification of amorphous ZnO on the mesoporous SnO2 pore wall can effectively increase the chemisorbed oxygen content and the thickness of the electron depletion layer at the gas-solid interface, which facilitates the interface redox reaction and enhances the sensing performance. This work presents an initial example of semiconductor metal oxide gas sensors for efficient detection of 3-methylbutyraldehyde that holds great potential for ensuring safety during chemical production and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Gasotransmitters, including nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), are a class of gaseous, endogenous signaling molecules that interact with one another in the regulation of critical cardiovascular, immune, and neurological processes. The development of analytical sensing mechanisms for gasotransmitters, especially multianalyte mechanisms, holds vast importance and constitutes a growing area of study. This review provides an overview of electrochemical sensing mechanisms with an emphasis on opportunities in multianalyte sensing. Electrochemical methods demonstrate good sensitivity, adequate selectivity, and the most well-developed potential for the multianalyte detection of gasotransmitters. Future research will likely address challenges with sensor stability and biocompatibility (i.e., sensor lifetime and cytotoxicity), sensor miniaturization, and multianalyte detection in biological settings.

Abstract
Chemiresistive gas sensors (CGSs) have revolutionized the field of gas sensing by providing a low-power, low-cost, and highly sensitive means of detecting harmful gases. This technology works by measuring changes in the conductivity of materials when they interact with a testing gas. While semiconducting metal oxides and two-dimensional (2D) materials have been used for CGSs, they suffer from poor selectivity to specific analytes in the presence of interfering gases and require high operating temperatures, resulting in high signal-to-noise ratios. However, nanoporous materials have emerged as a promising alternative for CGSs due to their high specific surface area, unsaturated metal actives, and density of three-dimensional inter-connected conductive and pendant functional groups. Porous materials have demonstrated excellent response and recovery times, remarkable selectivity, and the ability to detect gases at extremely low concentrations. Herein, our central emphasis is on all aspects of CGSs, with a primary focus on the use of porous materials. Further, we discuss the basic sensing mechanisms and parameters, different types of popular sensing materials, and the critical explanations of various mechanisms involved throughout the sensing process. We have provided examples of remarkable performance demonstrated by sensors using these materials. In addition to this, we compare the performance of porous materials with traditional metal-oxide semiconductors (MOSs) and 2D materials. Finally, we discussed future aspects, shortcomings, and scope for improvement in sensing performance, including the use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), and porous organic polymers (POPs), as well as their hybrid counterparts. Overall, CGSs using porous materials have the potential to address a wide range of applications, including monitoring water quality, detecting harmful chemicals, improving surveillance, preventing natural disasters, and improving healthcare.

Abstract
Glutaraldehyde disinfectant has been widely applied in aquaculture, farming, and medical treatment. Excessive concentrations of glutaraldehyde in the environment can lead to serious health hazards. Therefore, it is extremely important to develop high-performance glutaraldehyde sensors with low cost, high sensitivity, rapid response, fabulous selectivity, and low limit of detection. Herein, mesoporous lanthanum (La) doped SnO2 spheres with high specific surface area (52-59 m2 g-1), uniform mesopores (with a pore size concentrated at 5.7 nm), and highly crystalline frameworks are designed to fabricate highly sensitive gas sensors toward gaseous glutaraldehyde. The mesoporous lanthanum-doped SnO2 spheres exhibit excellent glutaraldehyde-sensing performance, including high response (13.5@10 ppm), rapid response time (28 s), and extremely low detection limit of 0.16 ppm. The excellent sensing performance is ascribed to the high specific surface area, high contents of chemisorbed oxygen species, and lanthanum doping. DFT calculations suggest that lanthanum doping in the SnO2 lattice can effectively improve the adsorption energy toward glutaraldehyde compared to pure SnO2 materials. Moreover, the fabricated gas sensors can effectively detect commercial glutaraldehyde disinfectants, indicating a potential application in aquaculture, farming, and medical treatment.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as attractive chemical sensing materials due to their exceptionally high porosity and chemical diversity. Nevertheless, the utilization of MOFs in chemiresistive type sensors has been hindered by their inherent limitation in electrical conductivity. The recent emergence of two-dimensional conductive MOFs (2D c-MOFs) has addressed this limitation by offering enhanced electrical conductivity, while still retaining the advantageous properties of MOFs. In particular, c-MOFs have shown promising advantages for the fabrication of sensors capable of operating at room temperature. Thus, active research on gas sensors utilizing c-MOFs is currently underway, focusing on enhancing sensitivity and selectivity. To comprehend the potential of MOFs as chemiresistive sensors for future applications, it is crucial to understand not only the fundamental properties of conductive MOFs but also the state-of-the-art works that contribute to improving their performance. This comprehensive review delves into the distinctive characteristics of 2D c-MOFs as a new class of chemiresistors, providing in-depth insights into their unique sensing properties. Furthermore, we discuss the proposed sensing mechanisms associated with 2D c-MOFs and provide a concise summary of the strategies employed to enhance the sensing performance of 2D c-MOFs. These strategies encompass a range of approaches, including the design of metal nodes and linkers, morphology control, and the synergistic use of composite materials. In addition, the review thoroughly explores the prospects of 2D c-MOFs as chemiresistors and elucidates their remarkable potential for further advancements. The insights presented in this review shed light on future directions and offer valuable opportunities in the chemical sensing research field.

Abstract
The emergence of two-dimensional conjugated metal-organic frameworks (2D c-MOFs) with pronounced electrical properties (e.g., high conductivity) has provided a novel platform for efficient energy storage, sensing, and electrocatalysis. Nevertheless, the limited availability of suitable ligands restricts the number of available types of 2D c-MOFs, especially those with large pore apertures and high surface areas are rare. Herein, we develop two new 2D c-MOFs (HIOTP-M, M=Ni, Cu) employing a large p-π conjugated ligand of hexaamino-triphenyleno[2,3-b:6,7-b':10,11-b'']tris[1,4]benzodioxin (HAOTP). Among the reported 2D c-MOFs, HIOTP-Ni exhibits the largest pore size of 3.3 nm and one of the highest surface areas (up to 1300 m2 g-1 ). As an exemplary application, HIOTP-Ni has been used as a chemiresistive sensing material and displays high selective response (405 %) and a rapid response (1.69 min) towards 10 ppm NO2 gas. This work demonstrates significant correlation linking the pore aperture of 2D c-MOFs to their sensing performance.

Abstract
The demand for monitoring chemical and physical information surrounding, air quality, and disease diagnosis has propelled the development of devices for gas sensing that are capable of translating external stimuli into detectable signals. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), possessing particular physiochemical properties with designability in topology, specific surface area, pore size and/or geometry, potential functionalization, and host-guest interactions, reveal excellent development promises for manufacturing a variety of MOF-coated sensing devices for multitudinous applications including gas sensing. The past years have witnessed tremendous progress on the preparation of MOF-coated gas sensors with superior sensing performance, especially high sensitivity and selectivity. Although limited reviews have summarized different transduction mechanisms and applications of MOF-coated sensors, reviews summarizing the latest progress of MOF-coated devices under different working principles would be a good complement. Herein, we summarize the latest advances of several classes of MOF-based devices for gas sensing, i.e., chemiresistive sensors, capacitors, field-effect transistors (FETs) or Kelvin probes (KPs), electrochemical, and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM)-based sensors. The surface chemistry and structural characteristics were carefully associated with the sensing behaviors of relevant MOF-coated sensors. Finally, challenges and future prospects for long-term development and potentially practical application of MOF-coated sensing devices are pointed out.

Abstract
Compared with nanomaterials-based sensors with single function, the development of multifunctional sensors shows high potential in comprehensive monitoring of personal health and environment, intelligent human-machine interfaces, and realistic imitation of human skin in prosthetics. Ordered macro-microporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-enabled flexible and stretchable electronics are promising candidates for integrated multifunctional sensing systems. Herein, a three-dimensional ordered macro-microporous zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (3DOM ZIF-8) for humidity sensing and the derived ZnO within a hierarchically ordered macroporous-mesoporous-microporous carbon matrix (ZnO@HOMC) for gas sensor is constructed. Benefit from hierarchically ordered macroporous-mesoporous-microporous structure, the active site is fully exposed, and the charge transfer is accelerated. As a result, the multifunctional sensing systems show ultrafast response and recovery speed (10 s and 34 s), high sensitivity (Rair /Rgas = 38.6@50 ppm) to acetone, rapid humidity response speed (0.23 s) within changing humidity (RH 21%-99%), excellent stability and repeatability. Furthermore, in order to realize real-time monitoring of gas concentrations and humidity on mobile devices, an intelligent and portable sensor module is fabricated and wirelessly connected to a smartphone to effectively detect acetone concentration and humidity. This sensing technology shows fascinating applications in personal health, fitness tracking, electronic skins, artificial nervous systems, and human-machine interactions.

Abstract
Our demand for ubiquitous and reliable gas detection is spurring the design of intelligent and enabling gas sensors for the next-generation Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence. The desire to introduce gas sensors everywhere is fueled by opportunities to create room-temperature semiconductor gas sensors with ultralow power consumption. In this Perspective, we provide an overview of the recent achievement of room-temperature gas sensors that have been translated from the advances in the design of the chemical and physical properties of low-dimensional semiconductor nanomaterials. The emergence of solution-processable nanomaterials opens up remarkable opportunities to integrate into high-performance and flexible room-temperature gas sensors by using low-temperature, large-area, solution-based methods instead of costly, high-vacuum, high-temperature device manufacturing processes. We review the fundamental factors which affect the receptor and transducer functions of semiconductor gas sensors. We also discuss challenges that must be addressed in the move to the continuous miniaturization and evolution of semiconductor gas sensors.

Abstract
Limited by the insufficient active sites and the interference from breath humidity, designing reliable gas sensing materials with high activity and moisture resistance remains a challenge to analyze human exhaled breath for the translational application of medical diagnostics. Herein, the dual sensing and cooperative diagnosis is achieved by utilizing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and its derivative. The Fe-MIL-101-NH2 serves as the quartz crystal microbalance humidity sensing layer, which exhibits high selectivity and rapid response time (16 s/15 s) to water vapor. Then, the Co2+ and Ni2+ cations are further co-doped into Fe-MIL-101-NH2 host to obtain the derived Co/Ni/Fe trimetallic oxides (CoNiFe-MOS-n). The chemiresistive CoNiFe-MOS-n sensor displays the high sensitivity (560) and good selectivity to acetone, together with a lower original resistance compared with Fe2 O3 and NiFe2 O4 . Moreover, as a proof-of-concept application, synergistic integration of Fe-MIL-101-NH2 and derived CoNiFe-MOS-n is carried out. The Fe-MIL-101-NH2 is applied as moisture sorbent materials, which realize a sensitivity compensation of CoNiFe-MOS-n sensors for the detection of acetone (biomarker gas of diabetes). The findings provide an insight for effective utilization of MOFs and the derived materials to achieve a trace gas detection in exhaled breath analysis.

Abstract
Comparison of defect-controlled leaching-kinetics modulation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous functionalized silica-based materials was performed on the example of a radionuclide and radionuclide surrogate for the first time, revealing an unprecedented readsorption phenomenon. On a series of zirconium-based MOFs as model systems, we demonstrated the ability to capture and retain >99% of the transuranic 241Am radionuclide after 1 week of storage. We report the possibility of tailoring radionuclide release kinetics in MOFs through framework defects as a function of postsynthetically installed organic ligands including cation-chelating crown ether-based linkers. Based on comprehensive analysis using spectroscopy (EXAFS, UV-vis, FTIR, and NMR), X-ray crystallography (single crystal and powder), and theoretical calculations (nine kinetics models and structure simulations), we demonstrated the synergy of radionuclide integration methods, topological restrictions, postsynthetic scaffold modification, and defect engineering. This combination is inaccessible in any other material and highlights the advantages of using well-defined frameworks for gaining fundamental knowledge necessary for the advancement of actinide-based material development, providing a pathway for addressing upcoming challenges in the nuclear waste administration sector.
