title: A novel "pro-sensitizer" based sensing of enzymes using Tb(III) luminescence in a hydrogel matrix.
abstract: Chemically synthesized "pro-sensitizers" release the sensitizer in the presence of lipase or β-glucosidase, triggering a significant luminescence response from a lanthanide based hydrogel.
