“…73 Dilution-stable unimolecular CBn-dye conjugates are attractive chemosensors for diagnostics applications in biouids because cucurbit[n]uril macrocycles (CBn, n ¼ 5-8, 10, 12), especially CB7, show high binding affinities for several biologically relevant molecules in aqueous media such as amino acids and their derivatives, peptides, and drugs. 11,[14][15][16]21,[74][75][76] Amantadine, which is a common drug to treat type A inuenza viruses 77 and dyskinesia associated with Parkinson's disease, [78][79][80] is strongly bound to CB7 with affinities up to 10 12 M À1 . 58 In the particular case of amantadine, the line between curing treatment and the occurrence of a series of side effects due to the accumulation of amantadine in the human body is narrow.…”
