Supramolecular chemistry originally defined by Lehn as “chemistry beyond molecules”
exploits noncovalent interactions between molecules to form 1D, 2D, and 3D …

In recent years there has been immense interest in studying gels derived from low molecular
mass gelators (supramolecular, or simply molecular gels). The motivation for this is not only …

The discovery and design of small organic molecules capable of gelling aqueous solvents
(hydrogelators) is a rapidly expanding area of research, in particular due to their possible …

The two-volume Encyclopedia of Supramolecular Chemistry offers authoritative, centralized
information on a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field. User-friendly and high-quality …

The protein microarray is a crucial biomaterial for the rapid and high-throughput assay of
many biological events where proteins are involved. In contrast to the DNA microarray, it has …

Over the past years, the gelation of aqueous solutions by low molecular weight (LMW)
compounds has become an area of increasing interest, owing to developments in the field of …

In recent years, self-assembly has emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of
functional nanostructures. Myriad applications of these nanoscale architectures, especially …

This review makes an attempt to combine the insights gained into the biochemistry and
physiology of bile acids with the elegant supramolecular systems designed from them. Bile …

Polymer gels are cross-linked networks of marine polymers that self-assemble from
dissolved organic carbon (DOC) polymers. Of the DOC, 10-30% can self assemble as …

Chirality seems to be intimately associated with the growth and stability of self-assembled
fibrillar networks and with the most common macroscopic property of these networks, which …
