Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical sensors based on amplifying fluorescent conjugated polymers.
TL;DR: This review restricts discussions to purely fluorescence-based methods using conjugated polymers (CPs) and details earlier research in this Introduction to illustrate fundamental concepts and terminology that underpin the recent literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple telemedicine for developing regions: camera phones and paper-based microfluidic devices for real-time, off-site diagnosis.
Andres W. Martinez,Scott T. Phillips,Emanuel Carrilho,Samuel W. Thomas,Hayat Sindi,George M. Whitesides +5 more
TL;DR: A prototype system for quantifying bioassays and for exchanging the results of the assays digitally with physicians located off-site offers new opportunities for inexpensive monitoring of health, especially in situations that require physicians to travel to patients to obtain diagnostic information that might be obtained more effectively by less valuable personnel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of the hydrophobic effect in the biomolecular recognition of arylsulfonamides by carbonic anhydrase.
Phillip W. Snyder,Jasmin Mecinović,Demetri T. Moustakas,Samuel W. Thomas,Michael Harder,Eric T. Mack,Matthew R. Lockett,Annie Heroux,Woody Sherman,George M. Whitesides +9 more
TL;DR: Results support the hypothesis that structured water molecules—including both the molecules of water displaced by the ligands and those reorganized upon ligand binding—determine the thermodynamics of binding of these ligands at the active site of the protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amplifying fluorescent polymer sensors for the explosives taggant 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane (DMNB)
TL;DR: Structural and electronic effects on the efficiency of DMNB detection with fluorescent conjugated polymers are described.
