Open a family to keep every result attached to its sample, method and conditions.
Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.
The light-controlled conductivity switch is reversible because water molecules rebind to the hydrogen-bonded network after light removal.
Caveat: Cycle data are graphical; exact absolute conductivities are not tabulated in the supplied documents.

Ag and ssDNA co-modification does not disrupt the ZIF-8 crystalline membrane phase.
Caveat: XRD evidence is qualitative in the text; detailed peak positions are graphical rather than tabulated.

The 20 mM Ag-DNA@ZIF-8 sample provides the best balance of high off/on ratio and recovery performance among the Ag loading series.
Caveat: The main-text phrase "Ag/Zn atomic ratio of 0.27" appears to use the Table S1 weight-ratio value; Table S1 gives atomic Ag/Zn = 0.16 for 20 mM.

ssDNA templates/assists Ag ion adsorption and in situ reduction to Ag nanoparticles inside the ZIF-8 membrane precursor.
Caveat: Main text contains an apparent sample-label inconsistency for Fig. S7 XPS, while the SI caption identifies 20 mM Ag-DNA@ZIF-8.

Proton transport in Ag-DNA@ZIF-8 follows a Grotthuss mechanism through the hydrogen-bond network between ssDNA groups and water molecules.
Caveat: Mechanistic assignment is inferred by authors mainly from activation energy and prior understanding of DNA@ZIF-8.

Illumination triggers Ag nanoparticle LSPR heating, disrupts local water-mediated hydrogen bonding, and sharply lowers proton conductivity.
Caveat: Local temperature increase is shown qualitatively by infrared photos; no numeric thermal profile was available.
