change, lack of stability and reusability. In this work, three peroxidase-like metal-organic
14
frameworks (MOFs), as artificial substitutes of natural peroxidase, are used for aflatoxin
15
B1 (AFB1) removal, demonstrating strong removal ability for AFB1 and anti-interference
16
ability towards other substances. There are distinct adsorption and catalytic properties
17
among those MOFs that are mainly due to the differences in structure and Fe ion active
18
sites. Then we immobilized those MOFs into ultrafiltration membranes to form a
19
multifunctional membrane (i.e., filtration, adsorption and catalysis) for AFB1 removal with
20
good reusability that can be operated in simultaneous adsorption/catalysis or adsorption
21
followed by catalysis/regeneration modes. Physicochemical analysis and animal
22
experiments showed that the degradation products are probably several low-carbon
23
substances whose toxic groups are cleaved.

1. INTRODUCTION
25
Mycotoxins are metabolites produced by fungi in mouldy food that are toxic and
26
carcinogenic to animals and humans.1-2 Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), as the most toxic
27
mycotoxin, has strong chemical and thermal stability.3 Biodegradation is a mild and

efficient strategy for AFB1 degradation.4 However, some inherent defects lead to many
29
difficulties in application. Microbes and enzymes are always susceptible to
30
environmental change, lack of stability, difficulty of reuse and, in a sense, cost. In recent
31
years, varieties of biomimetic materials, such as metal/metallic oxide nanoparticles and
32
supramolecular compounds, have emerged as potential alternatives to microbes and
33
enzymes that have been successfully applied in biosensing,5 pharmacy,6 energy,7
34
biology and green chemistry.8-9 Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as a new class of
35
porous inorganic-organic hybrid materials, has been used for air and water purification
36
by adsorption or separation in free or fixed states, like nanofibrous membrane.10-12
37
Moreover, two strategies are generally used to construct MOFs-based enzymes. One is
38
to encapsulate natural enzymes in pores or shells of MOFs.13-16 This method can
39
greatly improve the stability of enzymes. The role of MOFs, however, is merely a carrier
40
or a barrier in which natural enzymes are indispensable. The other is to function as a
41
mimetic enzyme itself without the addition of natural catalyst.17-19 Zhang et al. reported
42
that two Fe(III)-based MOFs, MIL-100 and MIL-68, showed peroxidase-like catalytic
43
activity to work as colorimetric biosensing platforms.20 Other Fe-containing MOFs, such

44
as MIL-53,21 MIL-68-NH2,22 PCN-22223 and PCN-600,24 are also applied to similar
45
sensing applications. However, this enzyme-like characteristic of MOFs is rarely applied
46
to aqueous mycotoxin removal through either adsorption or catalysis. Replacing
47
enzymes and other biocatalysts with artificial biomimetic catalysts under mild conditions
48
for mycotoxin degradation still remains an arduous challenge.
49
In this work, considering the similarity of active site and the cost, we choose Fe-based
50
MOFs as peroxidase mimics to remove AFB1 from water for the first time. Interestingly,
51
we find that three different Fe-based MOFs, MIL-100, MIL-53 and MIL-68, have distinct
52
adsorption and catalytic capacities to AFB1, although all of those MOFs show
53
remarkable AFB1 removal efficiency compared with horseradish peroxidase. The
54
sequence of adsorption capacity is: MIL-68 > MIL-100 > MIL-53, while the order of
55
apparent catalysis ability is reversed. These distinct properties of the MOFs are taken
56
advantage of for different applications. “Weak-adsorption” MIL-53 is used for AFB1
57
degradation to define the total toxicity of the catalysed products by animal
58
experimentation. “Strong-adsorption” MIL-100 is employed in “adsorption followed by
59
catalysis/regeneration” mode to create an H2O2-free condition during AFB1 removal in

75
Amicon stirred cells (Millipore Corporation, USA) with total volumes of 50 mL and
76
effective areas of 13.4 cm2 were used to fabricate membranes and test their
77
performance. PAN membrane, PAN350, which has a polyacrylonitrile separation layer
78
and polyester non-woven fabric support with molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of 20
79
kDa was purchased from Sepro Membranes, Inc. (USA).
80
2.2. Preparation of peroxidase-like MOFs. MIL-100,25 MIL-5321 and MIL-6820 are
81
synthesized by a hydrothermal/solvothermal method with little modification. For MIL-
82
100, 0.2775 g Fe0 powder and 0.6875 g H3BTC were added into 20 mL deionized water.
83
Then, 175 μL HF and 190 μL HNO3 were added and treated by ultrasound for 10 min.
84
The mixture was heated at 150 °C for 12 h and cooled at room temperature. After
85
washing with hot water and ethanol, MIL-100 powder was obtained by centrifugation
86
and vacuum drying at 60 °C. For MIL-53, 1.3515 g FeCl3·6H2O and 0.8305 g H2BDC
87
were added into 25 mL N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and treated by ultrasound for 10
88
min. The solution was then heated at 150 °C for 6 h and naturally cooled to room
89
temperature. The obtained solid was washed with DMF and a large amount of ultrapure
90
water, followed by drying at room temperature. For MIL-68, 0.6480 g FeCl3·6H2O and

91
0.7980 g H3BTC were added into 24 mL DMF. Then, 240 μL HF (5 M) and 240 μL HCl
92
(1 M) were added and ultrasonically treated for 10 min. The mixture was heated at 100
93
°C for 5 days and cooled at room temperature. After washing with water and acetone,
94
the solid was obtained by centrifugation and vacuum drying at 60 °C.

2.3. Preparation of peroxidase-like MOFs-loaded membrane. A facile and fast method
96
has been used to immobilize MOFs in PAN membrane, based on our previous work
97
with improvement.26 The pristine membrane was first immersed in 50% ethanol for 3
98
min, and then in water overnight, to remove the protective agent residue. Then, the
99
membrane was installed in an Amicon stirred cell under reverse mode (with the support
100
layer facing feed and an extra non-woven fabric support beneath the skin layer). After
101
adding a MOFs dispersion into deionized water (100 mL) and sonicating (50 W, below
102
35 °C) for 60 min, the resulting uniform suspension, containing 7.0 mg MOFs, was
103
filtered through the membrane with 150 rpm agitation under 0.06 bar. The MOFs-loaded
104
membrane was then fiercely washed with buffer to remove unstable MOFs on the
105
surface of the support layer. Tris-HCl buffer (10 mL, pH=8.5, 20 mM) containing DA·HCl
106
(20 mg) and PEI (20 mg, MW = 600) was poured upon the membrane and stirred for 4

min to rapidly form a polydopamine-PEI coating layer.27 The obtained membrane was
108
washed using deionized water at 0.02 bar and then was stored in water at 4 °C.
109
2.4. AFB1 removal. 2 mg mL-1 AFB1 stock solution was prepared by dissolving 10 mg
110
AFB1 in DMF and stored at -20 °C. AFB1 removal by peroxidase-like MOFs was carried
111
out using free and immobilized MOFs. The disperse system with free MOFs was used
112
to provide a fundamental and comprehensive understanding about the properties of
113
peroxidase-like MOFs in mycotoxin removal. The MOFs-loaded membrane system
114
investigated the reusability of MOFs in continuous mycotoxin removal.
115
As for the dispersion system, MOFs solid was dispersed in 10 mL sodium acetate
116
buffer or HEPES buffer (pH=4.0~7.0) by ultrasonic agitation to form a uniform
117
suspension (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 mg mL-1). Peroxidase solution (1.5 U mL-1) was prepared
118
by dissolving lyophilized peroxidase powder into the same buffers. Then, AFB1 (final
119
concentrations: 50 ppb, 1000 ppb) and H2O2 (1 mM, 5 mM, or 20 mM) were added
120
alone or together and transferred to a shaker (100 rpm) at a certain temperature (30~60
121
°C). After a certain time, 1 mL of the suspension was filtered by a 0.22 μm filter, boiled
122
for 5-10 min to remove residual H2O2 and stored at -20 °C for HPLC analysis. In

123
addition, to investigate the possibility of application in feedstuff, some primary nutrients
124
in corn, including starch, zein, α-cellulose, and corn oil, were respectively added to the
125
system to a final concentration of 1 g L-1. Then, the results were compared with those of
126
the blank.
127
As for the membrane system, the MOFs-loaded membrane was installed in a stirred
128
cell under normal mode (skin layer facing the feed), and 23 mL of AFB1 solution (50
129
ppb) that contained H2O2 (20 mM) was filtered at 40 °C for 2.5 h under gravity. 20 mL of
130
permeate and 3 mL of retentate were collected and heated for 5 min at 100 °C. Then,
131
samples were stored at -20 °C for HPLC analysis. The AFB1 removal efficiency was
132
calculated using the following formula:
133 134
(
AFB1 removal efficiency = 1 ―
) × 100%
cpVp + crVr c0V0
(1)
135 136 137
where c0 and V0 were the initial AFB1 concentrations and volumes, and cp (cr) and Vp (Vr) were the AFB1 concentrations and volumes of permeate (retentate), respectively.

138
Interference tests were performed in the same way by pre-mixing corn, starch,
139
cellulose, zein or corn oil in the system. The AFB1 relative amount before and after
140
nutrients adsorption was calculated as:
141 142
c
AFB1 relative amount = c0 × 100%
(2)
143 144
where c0 (c) was the AFB1 concentration before (after) nutrients adsorption.
145
All samples were analysed by a high-performance liquid chromatography system
146
(HPLC, Agilent, 1100 series) equipped with a column (ZORBAX SB-C18, 250 mm × 4.6
147
mm i.d.; 5 μm; Agilent, USA), a VWD detector (Agilent, G1314A, USA) and an FLD
148
detector (Agilent, G1321B, USA). All vessels contaminated by AFB1 should be soaked
149
in sodium hypochlorite solution (2% w/v) for 24 h and washed with ethanol thoroughly.
150
2.5. Animal experiment. The detoxification of AFB1 by peroxidase-like MOFs has been
151
tested and verified by animal experimentation. To obtain a low bio-toxic environment,
152
propanediol (PG) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were used as cosolvent of AFB1
153
instead of DMF in the animal experiment. AFB1 was dissolved in PG-DMSO (volume

ratio, 1:1) to a final concentration of 1 mg mL-1 as mother liquid. By mixing the mother
155
liquid with a specific amount of sodium acetate buffer (20 mM, pH=4.0), an initial
156
solution that contained 30 μg mL-1 AFB1 was prepared and used to feed mice. This
157
solution was detoxified by adding MIL-53 (1 mg mL-1), H2O2 (50 mM) and incubating at
158
40 °C for 8 h, then filtered by microfiltration membrane and boiled for 5 min. In addition,
159
a blank solution was prepared by adding only PG and DMSO into sodium acetate buffer
160
without AFB1 to investigate the toxicity of the cosolvent.
161
Six-week-old male ICR mice were obtained from Beijing HFK Bioscience Co., Ltd.
162
The mice were divided into 4 groups and administered different solutions orally twice a
163
week for 5 weeks as follows: group I mice received normal saline; group II mice
164
received blank solution; mice in group III were fed with initial AFB1 solution and group IV
165
mice received detoxified solution. The body weights of mice were measured twice a
166
week. On day 39, venous blood was drawn from the orbits of mice. The serum was

176
2.7. Characterization. The crystal phase of MOFs samples was verified using a

powder X-ray diffractometer (PXRD, PANalytical B.V., Empyrean). The chemical
178
composition of MOFs was proven by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS, Thermo

191
analysed by XRD, XPS, SEM, DLS, zeta potential and nitrogen adsorption/desorption

approximately 724.8 eV and 711.3 eV, respectively (Figure 1a). The peak differential

are assigned to the FeIII cation. New multiple peaks at 709.6 and 723.1 eV were
198
attributable to the characteristics of FeII in MIL-53.28 Fe species, especially FeIII in

MOFs, imitated the active sites in Fe-based peroxidase. In addition, the FeII cation in
200
MIL-53 provided an extra Fenton-type property that might enhance the catalytic activity.

MIL-68 were 3617.9, 1116.4 and 2879.5 nm, respectively, while the zeta potentials were
203
37.4, 33.2 and 23.0 mV, respectively (Figures S4-S6). SEM images gave the
204
morphology and particle size of MOFs (Figures S7-S9). MIL-53 was a mixture of large
205
and small particles. The size of MIL-53 was relatively uniform. For MIL-68,
206
agglomeration appears because of the long synthesis time. The morphology and size of
207
MOFs would influence subsequent loading in the membrane. Elements mapping
208
showed that C, O and Fe were uniformly distributed in all MOFs (Figures S10-S12). The
209
relative contents of Fe were 14.79%, 22.09% and 24.05% in MIL-100, MIL-53 and MIL-
210
68, respectively, which was another key factor affecting catalytic activity besides Fe
211
valence. The N2-adsorption/desorption isotherms of MIL-100 and MIL-68 belonged to
212
type I, according to IUPAC, which suggested that MIL-100 and MIL-68 were typical
213
microporous materials (Figures 1b and 1d). The BET specific surface areas of MIL-100
214
and MIL-68 were 1528.5 and 248.9 m2 g-1, and the pore sizes were 11.8 and 14.1 Å,
215
respectively, which were consistent with the results in the literature.20, 29 The pores and
216
cages of MOFs might be key factors affecting adsorption capacity. For MIL-53, the
217
isotherm was categorized as type III, implying the imporosity of MIL-53 (Figure 1c).

3.2. AFB1 removal by free peroxidase-like MOFs. The AFB1 removal by three typical
225
peroxidase-like MOFs and peroxidase were first compared in the free system in order to
226
obtain their intrinsic properties of catalysis and adsorption (Figure 2). The AFB1 removal
227
by MOF alone was caused by adsorption (black line), and only H2O2 addition can also
228
slowly oxidize AFB1 (red line). When both H2O2 and MOF were added, a synergistic
229
effect of adsorption and catalysis promotes AFB1 removal (blue line). As seen in Figure
230
2, AFB1 was rapidly adsorbed to approximate equilibrium by MOFs within 10 h.
231
However, the adsorption rates of three MOFs to AFB1 were quite different. Strong,
232
medium and weak absorbability corresponded to MIL-68, MIL-100 and MIL-53,
233
respectively. All H2O2-containing groups exhibited a trend of continuous degradation of
234
AFB1. Thus, MOFs, as peroxidase-like catalysts, improve the AFB1 degradation rate to
235
different degrees. Contrary to adsorption, the order of catalytic ability from strong to
236
weak was given as follows: MIL-53, MIL-100 and MIL-68. By simple subtraction, the
237
contributions of adsorption and catalysis to AFB1 removal were illustrated in Figure 2d.
238
Briefly, there is a “trade-off” between adsorption and catalysis for each peroxidase-like
239
MOF. MIL-100 and MIL-53 show much greater catalytic ability than the natural

horseradish peroxidase and H2O2, and MIL-68 own the highest AFB1 removal during 8
241
h, owing to its strong adsorption capacity. The similarity of MOFs and natural
242
peroxidase arises from similar catalytic mechanisms: a ping–pong mechanism.31-33
243
Regarding the catalytic mechanism of the peroxidase-like MOFs, it is widely accepted
244
that they could promote the conversion of H2O2 into OH· radicals through electron
245
transfer.20-21

253
To further explain the reasons for the entirely different properties of these MOFs,
254
more simulations and characterizations were carried out. Simulation results show that
255
the pore size of MOFs is mainly responsible for the adsorption capacity (Figure 3). Both
256
MIL-68 and MIL-100 have two kinds of pores. The smaller pores of both MOFs are too
257
narrow for AFB1 molecules to pass through. The diameters of the larger pores of MIL-68
258
and MIL-100 are approximately 16.0 and 10.4 Å, respectively, while the size of AFB1 is
259
approximately 10.8 Å × 8.7 Å. MIL-68, with larger pores, is more accessible to AFB1
260
molecules than MIL-100. In addition, MIL-68 has a 2D topological structure with an
261
inter-connective porous structure, which makes it more efficient for molecules to move

in/out. However, for MIL-100, the 3D structure limits molecular mobility. On the one
263
hand, all small cages are forbidden for AFB1 molecules due to being full of small
264
windows. On the other hand, only partial windows of large cages are large pores, so
265
that the molecular pathways are tortuous. Thus, although MIL-100’s BET surface area is
266
many times larger than that of MIL-68, the adsorption capacity of MIL-100 is weaker
267
than that of MIL-68. For MIL-53, the flexible framework makes it difficult to estimate the
268
real pore size during dynamic processes, especially the multicomponent adsorption
269
process. An approximate state in which only water molecules are adsorbed reveals that
270
the pore size is unfit for AFB1 molecule transfer. For the adsorption mechanism,
271
hydrophobic adsorption and “π- π” interactions may play major roles, while electrostatic
272
interactions are relatively weak. This is due to the high hydrophobicity and nonpolarity of
273
AFB1 molecules.34-35 When H2O2 is added, the additional AFB1 removal is mainly due to
274
the oxidation reaction catalysed by MOFs. We consider that such increment in the AFB1
275
removal is attributed to “apparent catalysis,” since it is difficult to precisely define the
276
real contribution proportions of adsorption and catalytic oxidation to the AFB1 removal.
277
Obviously, MIL-53 has the strongest catalytic capacity, which may benefit from the

combination of peroxidase-like/Fenton-like properties and high Fe content, according to
279
the results of XPS and EDS (Figure. 1a and Figures. S10-13). For MIL-68, the apparent
280
catalysis seems to be weakest though its Fe content is the highest. The real catalytic
281
capacity may be obscured by its high adsorption efficiency, leading to a low “apparent
282
catalysis”, which will be proven by the interference experiments below.
283
The effects of temperature (Figures S13-S16), H2O2 concentration (Figures S17-S20)
284
and pH (Figures S21-S23) on the AFB1 removal efficiency were studied systematically.
285
The adsorption capacity of all MOFs remained unchanged within the temperature range
286
from 30 °C to 60 °C, while the catalytic capacity increased with increasing temperature.
287
This means that the catalytic capacities of MOFs are more sensitive to temperature than
288
adsorption within a narrow temperature range. MIL-68 is insensitive to temperature
289
change, due to the dominant adsorption. The catalytic capacities of all MOFs are
290
positively correlated with the concentration of H2O2. For peroxidase-like MOFs, 20 mM
291
of H2O2 is an appropriate concentration for AFB1 removal. In addition, both adsorption
292
and catalytic capacities of MOFs decrease with the increase of pH, indicating that a

305
Another important issue is that AFB1 always comes from agriculture and the food
306
industry. Very low concentrations of AFB1 and the interference from other substances
307
make it difficult to be removed. Almost 100%, 100% and 85% of AFB1 were respectively
308
removed by MIL-53, MIL-68 and MIL-100 when the initial concentration was reduced to
309
50 ppb (Figure S24). Four main nutrients in corn as interferents, including corn starch,
310
cellulose, zein and corn oil, were added into AFB1 aqueous solutions with MOFs. AFB1
311
is hardly adsorbed by those nutrients, except for zein, which adorbs 10% of AFB1
312
(Figure 4a). Therefore, the interference of zein was subtracted before subsequent
313
calculations. As shown in Figures 4b-4d, corn starch, cellulose and corn oil have no or
314
little effect on the AFB1 removal. However, zein has a negative effect on the AFB1
315
removal efficiency. Interestingly, when the adsorption capacity of MIL-68 was greatly
316
weakened, the catalytic ability was instead enhanced, resulting in only a slight decrease
317
of the total removal efficiency. This meant that the real catalytic capacity of MIL-68 is

3.3. AFB1 removal by MOFs-loaded membrane. To facilitate adsorbent/catalyst
321
recovery and continuous operation, the peroxidase-like MOFs were loaded into an
322
ultrafiltration membrane through reverse filtration of MOFs and subsequent dopamine-
323
polyethyleneimine (DA/PEI) co-deposition coating (Figure 5a). SEM images showed
324
that a large number of MIL-100 and MIL-53 particles were loaded on nonwoven fibers
325
and in the interfibre spaces, while only a few MIL-68 particles were filled in the spaces
326
(Figures S25-S27). Large particle size restricted the accessibility of MIL-68, which was
327
proved by the MOFs loading experiments (Figures S28). The sequence of loading rate
328
was: MIL-100 > MIL-53 > MIL-68. As a result, the AFB1 removal efficiency of three
329
MOFs-loaded membranes showed the same trend as loading amount/rate (Figures
330
S29) Then, “adsorption followed by catalysis/regeneration (adsorption-regeneration)”
331
and “simultaneous adsorption/catalysis (synergistic removal)” modes were evaluated for
332
AFB1 removal (Figure 5b); the former was suitable for the situations in which H2O2

met the requirements of a continuous and H2O2-tolerable process. In “adsorption-
335
regeneration” mode, taking the MIL-100-loaded membrane as an example, there was a
336
slight decrease in the AFB1 removal efficiency by adsorption without chemical
337
regeneration (Figure 5c), implying that hydrogen bonding might be the main adsorption
338
mechanism. When H2O2 was used to degrade AFB1 molecules adhered on the MOFs-
339
loaded membrane, the adsorption capacity of the regenerated membrane was
340
unexpectedly enhanced. It was speculated that the OH· radicals also degraded the
341
incompact polydopamine with increasing regeneration cycles and that more adsorption
342
sites on the loaded MOFs were exposed. In “synergistic removal” mode, adsorption and
343
catalysis worked synergistically during the gravity-driven flow-through process (Figures
344
5d-5f). The membranes with MIL-100 showed a super stable removal efficiency of AFB1
345
with H2O2, while there was only a slight decrease with reuse cycle for the other two
346
membranes. Moreover, the membrane with MIL-68 exhibited very low adsorption
347
capacity to AFB1, though MIL-68 has the highest adsorption capacity among the three
348
MOFs, which is caused by its lowest loading amount due to agglomeration (Figures
349
S27-28). It was worth mentioning that for the MIL-100-loaded membrane, the AFB1

351
when H2O2 was added, the AFB1 removal remained almost constant through four

cycles, verifying that the catalytic ability of the membrane could avoid the adsorption

saturation.

368
levels of ALP and LDH increased slightly in the control group (PG+DMSO) but were

significantly elevated in the original AFB1 group, which indicated that the cosolvents and

3.5. Analysis of degradation products. After verifying the detoxification effect through
383
animal experiments, we attempted to obtain more information about AFB1 degradation
384
products. MIL-53 was chosen as the catalyst due to possessing the weakest adsorption
385
and strongest catalysis. Two groups of HPLC curves obtained over time from variable
386
wavelength detector (VWD) and fluorescence detector (FLD) showed similar trends
387
(Figures S32-S33). AFB1 (retention time: 20.5 min) was gradually degraded within 4 or
388
8 h. However, no obvious new peak appeared, except multiple peaks appearing during
389
a short retention time window (3~8 min). This indicated that the products are nonspecific
390
and relatively hydrophilic. The results of UV-Vis full spectrum scanning show that no
391
new products can be detected clearly in a wide wavelength range (Figure S34). The
392
molecular weights of the possible products were obtained by high resolution mass
393
spectrometry, and the possible molecular formulas were also inferred (Figures S35-
394
S39). Compared with the structure of AFB1 (Figure S40), all possible products contain
395
incomplete lactone or bifuran rings, indicating that the main toxic structural components
396
are destroyed.38-39 Compared with other oxidation processes, the peroxidase-like

4. CONCLUSIONS
401
Peroxidase-like MOFs have much more efficient detoxification capacity than natural
402
peroxidase with respect to aflatoxin-contaminated liquid, but they show different
403
behaviours regarding AFB1 removal. The structures of frameworks and pores play key
404
roles in AFB1 adsorption, while the valence states and content of Fe ions affect the
405
catalytic performance. Even in the field of food processing, the nutrients as interfering
406
substances in the system have negligible impact on the AFB1 removal by these MOFs.
407
A MOFs-loaded membrane is developed by a simple strategy inspired by mussel
408
adhesive protein to reuse MOFs conveniently. As a result, excellent removal efficiency
409
and reusability are achieved in both “adsorption-regeneration” and “synergistic removal”
410
modes. Animal experiments confirm that the toxicity of AFB1 to liver can be detoxified by
411
peroxidase-like MOFs because AFB1 is degraded to a variety of low-carbon substances
412
with strong hydrophilicity and weak toxicity, according to MS analysis. The outcomes of

this work will open the gate to the development of MOF-based antidotes to mycotoxins.
414
In the future, our research will focus on developing more efficient and lower-cost
415
enzyme-like catalysts for broad mycotoxin removal.
