Residual tetracycline (TC) in animal food caused by abuse of antibiotics leads to many chronic diseases in the human body. The development of a simple and on-site visualization method for TC detection is need of the hour. Herein, a fluorescent europium-based metal–organic framework (Eu-MOF) sensor for visual and rapid detection of TC was developed. Eu-MOF displays a red emission being excited at 260 nm. Upon exposure to TC, significant fluorescence quenching was observed due to the inner filter effect and photoinduced electron transfer. Moreover, the developed sensor was applied for the detection of TC in milk and beef samples with recoveries of 96.1% to 106.3%, respectively. More importantly, a portable test strip based on Eu-MOF was manufactured. It is a highly selective and sensitive portable device for TC detection. The results can be distinguished immediately by naked eyes, making it become …
