Abstract
The cover picture shows the interaction of an incoming molecule and a receptor surface as the first process of a molecular sensing mechanism. It is envisioned that creating stable receptor substitutes could become of prime importance in the near future. For this, porous silica particles were decorated with protected carbohydrates to create artificial pocket-like structures on its surface. The feasibility of the idea was proven by detecting interactions of protected carbohydrates and 4-nitrobenzene analogs by using a confocal laser Raman spectrometer. More information can be found in the Research Article by O. Kanie and co-workers.
