Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metal-Organic Framework (MOF), a designable and multifunctional crystalline material constructed by coordinating metal ions and organic linkers, has exhibited enormous potential in biomedical sensing. Especially, by facilitating synergistic effects or cascade reactions with other materials, such as enzymes, antibodies, nucleic acid probes, DNAzymes, aptamers, small molecules, nanomaterials, etc., MOF composite were widely applied for sensing/imaging biomedical targets with superior performance. And the sensing targets including but not limited to bacteria, virus, proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, biomarkers, and ions. Because of the infinite possibilities of MOF composite and the increasingly stringent requirement of biomedical sensing, great attention has been drawn on this exciting topic.
In this Special Issue, we wish to cover the most recent advances in MOF composite for biomedical sensing by hosting a mix of original research articles and short critical reviews.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Inorganics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
