We’re pleased to announce that a new themed collection from Sensors & Diagnostics has now been published online!
Read the collection
This themed collection, guest edited by Sankarasekaran Shanmugaraju (Indian Institute of Technology Palakkad, India), Robert Elmes (Maynooth University, Ireland) and Valeria Amendola (University of Pavia, Italy) , highlights the current advancements and recent progress on the use of supramolecular structures and materials for applications in chemosensing and host-guest chemistry.
Supramolecular structures are often composed of discrete molecules or molecular assemblies that can accommodate suitable guest analytes through various non-covalent interactions. Supramolecular sensor chemistry has long been a topic of research that is receiving significant attention and many advancements have been made over the past few decades in the rational design of chemosensors for detecting various important analytes. The collection showcases recent developments in this important area of supramolecular chemistry research to inspire and attract the next generation of researchers into the field.
You can find a list of the articles below. All articles in Sensors & Diagnostics are open access and free to read.
