Abstract
Our study aims to examine the impact of ligand functionalization on the ammonia adsorption properties of MOFs and COFs, by combining multi-scale calculations with machine learning techniques. Density Functional Theory calculations were performed to investigate the interactions between ammonia (NH3) and a comprehensive set of 48 strategically chosen functional groups. In all of the cases, it is observed that functionalized rings exhibit a stronger interaction with ammonia molecule compared to unfunctionalized benzene, while -O2Mg demonstrates the highest interaction energy with ammonia (15 times stronger than the bare benzene). The trend obtained from the thorough DFT screening is verified via Grand Canonical Monte-Carlo calculations by employing interatomic potentials derived from quantum chemical calculations. Isosteric heat of adsorption plots provide a comprehensive elucidation of the adsorption process, and important insights can be taken for studies in fine-tuning materials for ammonia adsorption. Furthermore, a proof of concept machine learning (ML) analysis is conducted, which demonstrates that ML can accurately predict NH3 binding energies despite the limited amount of data. The findings derived from our multi-scale methodology indicate that the functionalization strategy can be utilized to guide synthesis towards MOFs, COFs, or other porous materials for enhanced NH3 adsorption capacity.

Abstract
The key problem that limits the practical applications of nonenzymatic electrochemical sensors in biological media, is the biofouling and chemical fouling of electrodes due to the adsorption of biological molecules and oxidation (reduction) products. Electrode fouling will cause low accuracy, poor stability, and low sensitivity. Here, a simple and efficient antifouling electrode was demonstrated for electrochemical sensing based on covalent-organic framework (COF) TpPA-1 and carboxylic multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) composites. COF TpPA-1 possesses abundant hydrophilic groups, which assisted the dispersion of CNT in water and formed uniform composites by π-π interaction. In addition, the introduction of CNT into the composites improved the electron transfer rate of COF TpPA-1. The antifouling interface was characterized by electrochemistry, contact angle measurement, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The electrode showed good chemical and bio-fouling resistant performance for the electrochemical detection of β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and uric acid (UA) in real serum samples.

Abstract
The challenge for simultaneous detection and removal of Hg2+ is the design of bifunctional materials bearing abundant accessible chelating sites with high affinity. Covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) are attracting more and more attention as potential bifunctional materials for Hg2+ detection due to their large specific surface area, ordered pores, and abundant chelating sites. Here, a new luminous S,N-rich COFBTT-AMPD based on hydrophilic block unit of 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AMPD) was constructed, which improved the solubility and affinity for Hg2+ greatly. Another S-rich fused-ring unit of benzotrithiophene tricarbalaldehyde (BTT) enhanced the conjugation of COFBTT-AMPD, and the methyl-rich chains block unit of AMPD effectively suppressed the aggregation-caused quenching. Thus, the COFBTT-AMPD emitted strong fluorescence at 546 nm in liquid and solid as well as different solvent with a wide pH range, which was used for the visual detection and removal of Hg2+ (detection limit: 2.6 nM, linear range: 8.6 × 10-3-20 μM, monolayer adsorption capacity: 476.19 mg g-1) successfully. COFBTT-AMPD-based fabric and light-emitting diode coatings were further constructed to realize the visual detection of Hg2+ vapor. The results reveal the potential of S,N-rich luminous COFBTT-AMPD for Hg2+ detection and remediation in the environment.

Abstract
Very limited treatment options are available to fight hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a serious global health concern with high morbidity and mortality. The integration of multiple therapies into one nanoplatform to exert synergistic therapeutic effects offers advantages over monotherapies. Here, we describe the construction of the nanoplatform Sor@GR-COF-366 for synergistic chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) for HCC using a porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (COF-366) coated with N-acetyl-galactosamine (GalNAc) and rhodamine B (RhB), and loaded with the first-line agent, Sorafenib (Sor). The nanoplatform is targeted towards ASGPR-overexpressed HCC cells and liver tissues by GalNAc and observed by real-time imaging of RhB in vitro and in vivo. The nanoplatform Sor@GR-COF-366 exerts an enhanced synergistic tumor suppression effect in a subcutaneous HCC mouse model with a tumor inhibition rate (TGI) of 97% while significantly prolonging survival at very low toxicity. The potent synergistic therapeutic outcome is confirmed in an orthotopic mouse model of HCC with the TGI of 98% with a minimally invasive interventional PDT (IPDT). Sor@GR-COF-366 is a promising candidate to be combined with chemo-IPDT for the treatment of HCC. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This work describes the construction of covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) modified with glyco-moieties to serve as hepato-targeted multitherapy delivery systems. They combine minimally invasive interventional photodynamic therapy (IPDT) triggered synergism with chemotherapy treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). With the aid of minimally invasive intervention, PDT can elicit potent anti-cancer activity for deep solid tumors. This platform shows strong therapeutic outcomes in both subcutaneous and orthotopic mouse models, which can significantly prolong survival. This work showed an effective combination of a biomedical nano-formulation with the clinical operational means in cancer treatment, which is greatly promising in clinical translation.

Abstract
Core-shell structured magnetic covalent-organic frameworks (Fe3O4@TaTp) were facilely synthesized based on one-step functionalization at room temperature and applied for magnetic solid-phase extraction of okadaic acid from seawater and shellfish prior to LC-MS/MS detection. Parameters, including adsorbent amount, extraction time, desorption solution, and desorption time which could affect the extraction efficiency, were respectively investigated. The developed methods demonstrated good linearity (R2 > 0.99), acceptable accuracy and good precision (<15%), and low limit of detection (0.5 pg·mL-1 for seawater and 0.04 µg·kg-1 for shellfish). The amount of the material used (1 mg for seawater and 5 mg for shellfish) and the time required (4 min for seawater and 15 min for shellfish) for extracting analyte from 5 mL of seawater and 2 g of shellfish are both greatly shortened compared with the previous reports. In addition, we successfully applied this method to real sample analysis.

Abstract
We report herein a novel multiple electrochemical aptasensor based on covalent-organic framework (COF) for sensitive and simultaneous detection of miRNA 155 and miRNA 122, by using shell-encoded gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as signal labels (AgNCs@AuNPs and Cu2O@AuNPs, respectively, NCs = nanoclusters). A new COF nanowire was synthesized via condensation polymerization of 1,3,6,8-tetra(4-carboxylphenyl)pyrene and melamine (represented by TBAPy-MA-COF-COOH) for multiple aptasensor fabrication. The nanowire was then used as a platform for anchoring single-strand DNA (ssDNA), which was hybridized with the complementary aptamer (cApt) probes of miRNA 155 and miRNA 122. AgNCs@AuNPs and Cu2O@AuNPs modified with cApts show separated differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) peaks at 0.08 and -0.1 V, respectively. The signal labels immobilized with cApts were released from the hybridized DNA complex and bound to their corresponding targets when contacting miRNAs. This phenomenon results in the substantial decline of the DPV peak current density of the signal labels. The developed TBAPy-MA-COF-COOH-based aptasensor has superior performance for sensing miRNA 155 and miRNA 122 simultaneously, with ultrasensitive low detection limits of 6.7 and 1.5 fM (S/N = 3), respectively, a wide linear range of 0.01-1000 pM, and high selectivity and applicability for serum samples. The proposed TBAPy-MA-based aptasensor demonstrates potential for simultaneous detection of multiple cancer biomarkers by replacing other ssDNA and aptamer strands.
