title: A new strategy for chiral recognition of amino acids.
abstract: A new strategy is established for detecting chiral amino acids based on the electron transfer from hemoglobin Fe(II) to Cu(II) in copper complexes of the amino acids. The sensor shows a highly selective recognition of arginine enantiomers.
