Eight
formulations of MOFs were synthesized and methane gas uptake was measured. The
MOFs are estimated to show improved volumetric and gravimetric capacities. The
ligands consisted mainly of four dicarboxylic acids with an aromatic backbone. The biochemical processes
through which MOFs exhibits toxicity was evaluated and shown to be consistent
with that mitochondrial oxidative stress and associated cellular dysfunction.
