The sensing takes place as changes in the fluorescence emission intensity of aminopyrene covalently bound to the organic ligands of the metal\u2013organic framework compound ZIF-8. In the presence of PAEs, a quenching of the fluorescence emission is observed. We evaluated strategies to engineer colloidal size distribution of the sensing particles to optimize the sensory response to PAEs. A thorough characterization of the modified ZIF-8 nanoparticles included powder X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, and photophysical characterization. The presented capability of the fluorophore-functionalized ZIF-8 to sense PAEs complements established methods such as chromatography-based procedures, which cannot be used on-site and paves the way for future developments such as hand-held quick sensing devices.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsomega.9b01051","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,10]],"date-time":"2019-10-10T11:45:12Z","timestamp":1570707912000},"page":"17090-17097","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Covalently Fluorophore-Functionalized\nZIF-8 Colloidal Particles as a Sensing Platform for Endocrine-Disrupting\nChemicals Such as Phthalates Plasticizers"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Ander","family":"Chapartegui-Arias","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) , Richard-Willsta\u0308tter-Stra\u00dfe 11 , ,","place":["Berlin, Germany, D-12489"]},{"name":"Humboldt-Universita\u0308t zu Berlin , , Brook-Taylor-Stra\u00dfe 2 , ,","place":["Berlin, Germany, D-12489"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jose A.","family":"Villajos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) , Richard-Willsta\u0308tter-Stra\u00dfe 11 , ,","place":["Berlin, Germany, D-12489"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anett","family":"Myxa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) , Richard-Willsta\u0308tter-Stra\u00dfe 11 , ,","place":["Berlin, Germany, D-12489"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sebastian","family":"Beyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) , Richard-Willsta\u0308tter-Stra\u00dfe 11 , ,","place":["Berlin, Germany, D-12489"]},{"name":"Chinese University of Hong Kong , , Room 802, 8\/F, William M.W.
