Fabrication of a Reusable Carbon Dot/Gold Nanoparticle/Metal–Organic Framework Film for Fluorescence Detection of Lead Ions in Water

Solid-state sensing platforms are desirable for the development of reusable sensors to promote public health measures such as testing for drinking water contamination. A bioinspired metal-organic framework (MOF)-based material has been developed by imitating metal-protein interactions in biological systems to attain high sensitivity and selectivity to Pb
