A Covalently Imprinted Photonic Crystal for Glucose Sensing

We demonstrate a glucose-sensing material based on the combination of photonic crystal templating and a molecular-imprinting technique. In the presence of the target molecule glucose, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) hydrogel with pendent phenylboronic acid groups was synth...
