In this work, the thin MIFs were formed on a gold sensor chip through thermal co-polymerization of functional mono- mers （methacrylic acid, MAA） and crosslinking monomers （ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, EGD- MA） in the presence of template molecules PETN. The template molecules PETN were subsequently removed from the MIFs simply by rinsing the MIFs with a mixture of acetonitrile and acetic acid 9：1 （ v/v）, thus the recognition sites were formed for specific detection of PETN. According to the mass coverage equation, the surface coverage of removed PETN from MIFs was about 10. 8 ng/mm~. The developed SPR sensor allowed for the detection of PETN at concentration down to 10-~~ mol/L. A control experiment utilizing an analogue cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine （RDX） showed MIFs＇ good selectivity to PETN.展开更多
