Artificial amphiphilic scaffolds for the selective sensing of protein based on hydrophobicity

Abstract

Here we report, novel amphiphilic fluorescent probes for selective detection of BSA (bovine serum albumin), via non-covalent interactions. The intrinsic weak fluorescence of the probes in an aqueous medium increased dramatically after addition of BSA, while responses to various other proteins/enzymes are negligible.
