Chiral discrimination of enantiomers with a self-assembled monolayer of functionalized β-cyclodextrins on Au surfaces

Cyclodextrin Derivatives as Chiral Supramolecular Receptors for Enantioselective Sensing

“…In the above cited experiments, cyclodextrins were sprayed on the sensor chip but it has also been demonstrated that they can be used as self assembled monolayers when bearing sulphur containing moieties[68, 69]. Monothiolated cyclodextrins (cf.…”

Chiral Biosensors and Immunosensors

“…There are many examples of sensors exhibiting the enantioselective properties based on quartz crystal microbalance technique for example sensor for L-histidine (Zhang Z. et al 2005), (+) methyl lactate (Ng et al 2002), L-cysteine (Chen Z. et al 2000), L-phenylalanine (Huang et al 2003) or (-) menthol (Tanese et al 2004). However the combination of biological macromolecules and QCM technique has been rarely reported for the studies of chiral discrimination.…”

Cyclodextrin functionalized mesoporous silica films on quartz crystal microbalance for enhanced gas sensing

“…The sensing performance of the formed hybrid material coating to benzene and ethanol vapors is tested. Compared to the reported ␤-CD-QCM chiral sensors [24,25] and gas sensors [26,27], where the CD molecules were either physically adsorbed onto a flat gold surface by spray coating/drop coating or chemically adsorbed on flat gold through thiol-based self-assembly, our approach would be advantageous in terms of high sensitivity and high stability.…”
