Herein, we demonstrate that it is possible to design a sensor array with one multivalent cationic receptor (a dendrigraft of lysine) and one fluorescent anionic indicator (a fluorescein-labeled peptide). Depending on the loading of the indicator on the receptor, negatively charged glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) induce a positive or negative variation of the fluorescent signal as they displace the indicators from the receptor or they compact the indicators on the receptor's surface, respectively. This unique strategy allows not only the blind identification of pure GAGs with a level of accuracy of 100%, but also the differentiation of mixtures.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 October 2015.
All research outputs
#23,603,542
of 33,250,112 outputs
Outputs from Chemical Communications
#23,653
of 32,186 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#270,215
of 400,728 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Chemical Communications
#1,290
of 1,713 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,250,112 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 32,186 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 400,728 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,713 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
