title: Fluorogenic probing of specific recognitions between sugar ligands and glycoprotein receptors on cancer cells by an economic graphene nanocomposite.
abstract: Economical nanocomposites based on π-stacking of N-acetyl glycosyl rhodamine B to graphene oxide (GO) are simply prepared. These "sweet" GO-materials are proven to be admirable for the fluorogenic recognition of specific intercellular sugar-based ligand-glycoprotein receptor interactions of interest.
