Abstract:
A series of dipeptide-based fluorescent sensors were developed that exhibit sensitive and distinct responses to six typical sialic acid (SA) species despite the interference of 300-fold d-glucose or other saccharides, thus contributing to a novel fluorescence sensing matrix allowing the rapid and high-efficiency discrimination of different SA species.
