Decorating liquid crystals (LCs) with stimuli-responsive materials provides a bridge between
the LCs and the biochemical interactions. The alignments of the LC molecules are …

This focused review presents various approaches or formats in which liquid crystals (LCs)
have been used as stimuli-responsive sensors. In these sensors, the LC molecules adopt …

Multiplex detection of tumor markers in blood with high specificity and high sensitivity is
critical to cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Herein, we demonstrate a strategy for …

The detection of trypsin and its inhibitor is significantly important for both clinical diagnosis
and disease treatment. Herein, we demonstrate a hydrogel-assisted paper-based lateral …

We report a label-free liquid crystal (LC)-based biosensor for sensitive detection of arsenic
(III) ions (As3+) in aqueous solutions, using an arsenic-binding aptamer (Ars-3 aptamer) as …

We report a liquid crystal (LC)-based aptasensor for the detection of malathion using a
cationic surfactant-decorated LC interface. In this method, LCs displayed dark optical …

The sensors using liquid crystals (LCs) as the optical signal reporter, ie, the LC-based
sensors, have been considered as new sensing technology suitable for fast-screening and …

Liquid crystals (LCs) have been applied for a long time in the field of analytical chemistry. To
date, there are no reports about utilization of LCs as the catalyst to amplification analytical …

We report the development of a liquid crystal (LC)-based aptasensor for the detection of
interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in human blood as well as the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). In this …

Detection of biomarkers in body fluids is critical to both diagnosing the life-threatening
diseases and optimizing therapeutic interventions. We herein report use of liquid crystals …
