Ratiometric fluorescence sensing of sugars via a reversible disassembly and assembly of the peptide aggregates mediated by sugars.
An amphiphilic dipeptide (1) bearing pyrene and phenylboronic acid was demonstrated as a unique example of a ratiometric sensing system for sugars by reversibly converting the peptide aggregates into
Stimuli-responsive Inclusion Complex of Boronic Acid-modified Amylose for Colorimetric Detection of Polyhydroxy Compounds
A new stimuli-responsive supramolecular system has been established based on the inclusion complex of boronic acid-modified amylose with iodine. When iodine was mixed with the boronic acid-modified...
Glucose sensing via aggregation and the use of "knock-out" binding to improve selectivity.
Aggregates of an amphiphilic monoboronic acid bearing a hydrophobic pyrene fluorophore were employed for highly modulating, sensitive, and selective ratiometric fluorescent sensing of glucose in
pH-Responsive molecular tweezers.
TLDR
This work reports a new water-soluble macromolecular carrier bearing a pH-responsive molecular tweezer, whose affinity for a substrate depends on the external pH, and the ability of the carrier to bind to substrates in an pH-dependent fashion.
pH gated glucose responsive biomimetic single nanochannels.
TLDR
A pH gated Glu responsive biomimetic nanochannel, modified with 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid is designed, which can switch nanochannels from the "on" to "off" state by pH.
Selective detection of zwitterionic arginine with a new Zn(II)-terpyridine complex: potential application in protein labeling and determination.
TLDR
A new water-soluble receptor 1 has been synthesized and it showed selective recognition of zwitterionic arginine in aqueous media and could be regard as a facile tool for protein labeling and quantitative determination.
Supramolecular chemical sensors based on pyrene monomer-excimer dual luminescence.
TLDR
A review of chemical sensors based on the monomer-excimer dual luminescence of aromatic systems, such as pyrene, which can be classified into two classes: Firstly, the assembly of receptor-effector conjugates is triggerred by the analyte of interest, and secondly, the supramolecular assembly that constitutes the sensor is perturbed by interaction with the analyzete.
Constitutional Dynamic Chemistry-based New Concept of Molecular Beacons for High Efficient Development of Fluorescent Probes.
TLDR
An amino group containing pyrenyl derivative of cholesterol (CP) is synthesized and used for the construction of new fluorescent probes with EDTA and sulfuric acid that were successfully used for n-hexane purity checking and Ba(2+) and Pb( 2+)sensing, respectively.
