Metal-Organic Frameworks in Analytical Sample Preparation and Sensing presents all the areas of applications of metal-organic frameworks in analytical sample preparation, including their use as sorbents in miniaturized-extraction procedures and as components in sensors. The book also provides important information about the synthesis and characterization of these materials, with useful tips written by experts on the subject with respect to their conditioning, handling and recycling. Their outstanding properties, adsorptive capabilities and structural diversity are also highlighted, thus helping experts in the field select the proper metal-organic framework for a particular analytical application. Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline coordination polymers with robust and stable crystal structures, high synthetic tuneability, and interesting properties for use in analytical applications.
