Review—Recent Trends in Supramolecular Recognition of Dopamine, Tyrosine, and Tryptophan, Using Electrochemical Sensors
Catalina Cioates Negut, Raluca‐Ioana Stefan‐van Staden
Abstract
This review refers to recent advances on the receptors involved in the field of host-guest recognition from the last five years. The most used receptors in this field were calixarenes, pillararenes, and cyclodextrins. First, a series of electrochemical sensors used to detect dopamine are described, then the electrochemical chiral detection of the tyrosine and tryptophan enantiomers is discussed.
