Associative chemosensing by fluorescent macrocycle–dye complexes – a versatile enzyme assay platform beyond indicator displacement†
Abstract
A label-free in situ method to monitor reactions in real time by using fluorescent supramolecular chemosensors based on cucurbit[8]uril is presented. It allows sensing of enzymatic activity, inhibitor and activator screening, and analyte detection with unprecedented versatility and high sensitivity.
