Herein, a novel Cu-MOF—namely 1—that displays the formula [Cu3L2(DMF)2]n (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) is described, synthesized by the combination of copper(II) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (H3L)—both having well-known antibacterial properties. The resulting three-dimensional structure motivated us to study the antibacterial activity, adsorptive capacity and processability of the MOF in the form of pellets and membranes as a proof-of-concept to evaluate its future application in devices.}, organization = {Government of the Basque Country for the predoctoral fellowship and R.F.M for the Junior Research Position CEECIND/00553/2017}, organization = {Juan de la Cierva Incorporación Fellowship (grant agreement no.
