G. Springsteen et Bh. Wang, Alizarin Red S. as a general optical reporter for studying the binding of boronic acids with carbohydrates, CHEM COMMUN, (17), 2001, pp. 1608-1609
Alizarin Red S. displays a dramatic change in fluorescence intensity and co
lor in response to the binding of a boronic acid and can be used as a gener
al reporter for studying carbohydrate-boronic acid interactions, both quant
itatively and qualitatively.
