Quantum dot/cyclodextrin supramolecular systems based on efficient molecular recognition and their use for sensing

Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Mar 7;48(20):2573-5. doi: 10.1039/c1cc15312a. Epub 2011 Nov 14.

Abstract

A supramolecular system based on ketoprofen functionalised CdSe/ZnS nanoparticles and pyrene-modified β-CD was prepared and successfully used for molecular sensing of different analytes. In addition, a strategy for the individual recovery of all the components of the sensing assay is reported.
