To this aim, a classification of different typesof fiber-based chemical sensors is first made, followed by adescription of the most important MOFs and their operationprinciples in chemical sensing. Then, studies on the use ofMOFs in fluorescence, Raman and SERS detection amongother detection principles are discussed. Finally, literature includingthe implementation of these microstructures in homemadeand commercial analytical equipment is summarized.This review intends not only to give a current perspective onthe use of MOFs and microstructures in chemical sensing, butalso to make an approach between the fields of optical fiber andanalytical chemistry, in order to understand the basic principlesof operation in this promising frontier of knowledge.
