MNMOF was fabricated by a one-pot synthetic method and it was successfully characterized with various techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The FAM-labeled ssDNA was adsorbed onto the surface of MNMOF through π-π stacking and electrostatic interactions, which resulted in the partial quenching of its fluorescence intensity (65%).
