Abstract

In this paper we report 8-quinolineboronic acid as a novel type of fluorescent probe for carbohydrates. This boronic acid responds to the binding of a carbohydrate with over 40-fold increases in fluorescence intensity and shows optimal fluorescence change at physiological pH in aqueous solution.
