title: Combinatorial approaches to synthetic receptors.
abstract: Combinatorial chemistry can be efficiently used for the synthesis and evaluation of binding properties of libraries of synthetic receptors. This approach has been applied particularly to 'tweezer' and other 'multi-armed' receptors, and has been used for the identification of receptors for peptides in aqueous media, and for the development of new sensors and sensor arrays.
