A microporous Pb-based metal-organic framework (MOF) [Pb(4,4'-ocppy)]·7HO (Pb-MOF) has been constructed from 4-(4-carboxyphenyl)pyridine N-oxide and Pb(NO). Structural analysis reveals that the Pb-MOF possesses three-dimensional framework with a one-dimensional rhombic channel. When tested as a lithium-ion battery anode, a reversible lithium storage capacity of 489 mAh g was maintained after 500 cycles at 100 mA g as well as excellent cycling stability. The superior electrochemical performance may be derived from the sustenance of the Pb-MOF framework and compositional features of the organic moiety.

With the rapid advancement of communication technologies, issues of electromagnetic pollution and electromagnetic compatibility have become increasingly severe, heightening the demand for high-performance electromagnetic wave absorption materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have flourished in this field owing to their chemical tunability, high porosity, tailored topological structures, and functionality. MOF-derived composites exhibit diverse loss mechanisms and heterogeneous structures, achieving lightweight, broadband, and highly efficient absorption.

Diabetic wounds present persistent challenges due to impaired healing, recurrent infection, oxidative stress, and dysregulated glucose metabolism. Bioinspired polymeric microneedle (MN) patches have emerged as multifunctional platforms capable of penetrating the stratum corneum to deliver therapeutics directly into the dermis, enabling glucose regulation, antimicrobial action, reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulation, and proangiogenic stimulation. Recent experimental evidence has demonstrated that the integration of glucose oxidase-loaded porous metal-organic frameworks, photothermal nanomaterials, and antioxidant hydrogels within dissolvable MNs achieves synergistic bactericidal effects, accelerates collagen deposition, and enhances neovascularization in diabetic wound models.

Background And Aim: Hospital effluents are a major source of environmental contaminants, harboring pathogenic bacteria, toxic trace metals, and high organic loads. This study aimed to evaluate the bacteriological and physicochemical profiles of wastewater discharged from three coastal hospitals in Oran, Algeria, and to assess the associated public and livestock health risks under the One Health approach.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2023 to February 2024, involving monthly sampling at three hospitals and one drainage collector.

Two series of robust pillared metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are obtained under solvothermal conditions by combining a metal salt with either Hbpdc, biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid, or Hpda, 1,4-phenylenediacrylic acid, forming 2D layers, which are pillared by L, an alloxazine derivative of 1,4-di(pyridin-4-yl)benzene using a one-pot three-component strategy. Crystallographic studies reveal the formation of two isomorphous series of compounds, namely 1-M (from Hbpdc with M = Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) and 2-M (from Hpda with M = Co or Cu). The multifunctional compounds have high decomposition temperatures, and their sorption properties were measured, revealing relatively low surface areas.

Density functional theory (DFT) is the standard approach for modeling MIL-101(Fe) and related Fe-based metal-organic frameworks, typically assuming a ferromagnetic high-spin configuration. However, this widely adopted approach overlooks a key electronic feature: Spin frustration in the triangular -O) nodes. Using flip-spin, broken-symmetry DFT, we identify the true ground state as an antiferromagnetic state that standard DFT fails to capture.
