Here, we report the development of a sensitive colorimetric and Raman “turn-off” sensor
based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), for the detection of melamine (MM) in real milk …

Glycans in the form of oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and glycoconjugates are
ubiquitous in nature, and their structures range from linear assemblies to highly branched …

Galectins are widely expressed galactose‐binding lectins implied, for example, in immune
