Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjp0d437b" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />We report the use of β-CD–C₁₄TAB complex-coated 5CB droplets for the selective detection of cholic acid, in which the β-CD–C₁₄TAB complex at the surface of the 5CB droplets is used as a selective barricade and the configuration transition of the 5CB inside the droplets serves as an optical probe.</p> </abstract>
