A water-stable metal–organic framework of a zwitterionic carboxylate with dysprosium: a sensing platform for Ebolavirus RNA sequences†
Abstract
We herein report a water-stable 3D dysprosium-based metal–organic framework (MOF) that can non-covalently interact with probe ss-DNA. The formed system can serve as an effective fluorescence sensing platform for the detection of complementary Ebolavirus RNA sequences with the detection limit of 160 pM.
