Abstract
As the consumption of antibiotics rises, they have generated some negative impacts on organisms and the environment because they are often unable to be effectively degraded, and seeking effective detection methods is currently a challenge. Covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) are new types of crystalline porous crystals created based on the strong covalent interactions between blocked monomers, and COFs demonstrate great potential in the detection of antibiotics from aqueous solutions because of their large surface area, adjustable porosity, recyclability, and predictable structure. This review aims to present state-of-the-art insights into COFs (properties, classification, synthesis methods, and functionalization). The key mechanisms for the detection of antibiotics and the application performance of COFs in the detection of antibiotics from water are also discussed, followed by the challenges and opportunities for COFs in future research.
