Environment-induced Sequential Interconversion of Amphoteric β-1,3-Glucans/Polythiophene Complexes: A Unique System Applicable to a Naked-eye Detectable Fluorogenic pH Probe

Environment-induced Sequential Interconversion of Amphoteric β-1,3-Glucans/Polythiophene Complexes: A Unique System Applicable to a Naked-eye Detectable Fluorogenic pH Probe

The amphoteric curdlan and a cationic polythiophene can form two distinct complexes as a function of medium pH. On the basis of such an environment-induced sequential interconversion of the amphoteric curdlan/polythiophene complex, we have successfully demonstrated the application of the complex as...

Zusammenfassung:The amphoteric curdlan and a cationic polythiophene can form two distinct complexes as a function of medium pH. On the basis of such an environment-induced sequential interconversion of the amphoteric curdlan/polythiophene complex, we have successfully demonstrated the application of the complex as a naked-eye-detectable multicolor fluorogenic pH probe.
