Copper complexes immobilized agents

Examples of such chemosensors have been outlined including oxygen (or air pressure), pH, humidity, hydrogen peroxide, copper, and temperature sensors. However, the encapsulation of lanthanide probes in sohd state matrices or polymer nano- or microparticles can contribute to reduce the impact of interfering agents. Many polymers provide a selective permeability and block certain species. A number of copolymers, particularly block copolymers, are available that on the one hand are well suited for the immobilization of lanthanide complexes, and on the other hand hinder the diffusion of certain interfering species into the layer.
