In biosensors fabrication, entrapment in polymeric matrices allows efficient immobilization of the biorecognition elements without compromising their structure and activity. When considering living cells, the biocompatibility of both the matrix and the polymerization procedure are additional critical factors. Bio-polymeric gels

Chiral recognition and subsequent selective self-organisation into hydrogen-bonded n-mers is observed in supersonic methyl lactate expansions. The nu(OH) and nu(C=O)-vibrations are investigated by ragout-jet FTIR-spectroscopy and lead to the assignment of homo- and heterochiral clusters of at least three different

Odour perception in humans can sometimes discriminate different enantiomers of a chiral compound, such as limonene. Chiral discrimination represents one of the greatest challenges in attempts to devise selective and sensitive gas sensors. The importance of such discrimination for pharmacology
