Low-dimensional materials facilitate the conjugation between fluorogenic boronic acids and saccharides

Abstract

Here we demonstrate that low-dimensional materials (LDMs) enhance the conjugation between fluorogenic boronic acids (BAs) and saccharides. Among the LDMs investigated, 1D carbon nanotubes significantly lower the limit of detection and enhance the binding of the BA with D-fructose.
