Cover Story: The fluorescent chemical probe PDI-1 was designed for strong binding and quantification of glycosaminoglycans, a class of complex polysaccharides, by a simple mix-and-read assay. The interaction between probe and analyte leads to the formation of fluorescence-quenched aggregates. Performance of the probe in a competitive blood plasma matrix is exemplified by the detection of dermatan sulfate, a component of antithrombotic drugs. View the paper
