Programming and controlling molecular recognition in aqueous solutions is increasingly
common, but creating supramolecular sensors that detect analytes in biologically relevant …

A water-soluble host molecule can bind tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) and its metabolites
in aqueous solution. By pairing this recognition event in a sensing array with fluorescent …

A thermoresponsive in situ generated proppant based on liquid–solid transition of a
supramolecular self-propping fracturing fluid was developed. At lower temperatures (below …

Self-assembly peptide nanotechnology has attracted much attention due to its regular and
orderly structure and diverse functions. Most of the existing self-assembly peptides can form …

We carried out steady-state and stopped-flow photophysical measurements to determine the
kinetics of a discrete disassembly driven turn-on fluorescent system. On and off rates for both …

Role of N-methylated lysines (K) and arginines (R) was underappreciated for a long time
before the turn of the century. With the help of new emerging technologies, their crucial role …

Nature has inspired chemists to develop complex assemblies that perform functions in
biologically relevant solutions. Yet this is not a trivial task. Not only does water act as a …
