Chemosensors for Detecting Molecules using Modified Cyclodextrins and Cyclodextrin-Peptide Conjugates... 

There has been considerable interest in the development of new methods of chemical sensing to recognize molecules or ions as important application of supramolecular chemistry [1-3]. Our group has prepared many kinds of chro-mophore-modified cyclodextrins (CD) as chemosensors for detecting molecules [4-8]. Colorless neutral molecules can be detected as changes in the intensities of the fluorescence, absorption, or circular dichroism using chemosensors based on chromophore-modified CD.
