Summary: An electroactive chiral polymer (S,S)-p-CVB-Fc was designed and synthesized to detect nonelectroactive samples using electrochemical techniques. It can be fixed on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode as an electrochemical chiral sensor, showing clear discrimination in the response of peak current towards non-electroactive amino acids such as proline, threonine, and alanine. The current work enlarges the testing scope of chiral samples in the field of chiral electroanalysis using an electroactive sensor.

Summary: Chirality-induced nanomaterials are used for discrimination of chiral targets, with chiroptical activities observed in CdTe quantum dots supramolecular assemblies. The distinct fluorescence response patterns of L- and D-Trp enable construction of a logic gate system. The wide range color tonalities facilitate simple visual tracking of enantiomeric excess determination of L-Trp.

Summary: A simple and effective chiral selector based on Cu2+ and ?-cyclodextrin was reported, which self-assembled with sodium alginate as a chiral sensor. The composite of C3N4 and Ppy was utilized as an electroactive material for enantiomeric selection of tryptophan. The sensor showed good selectivity, low affinity to L-Trp, higher peak current, and stronger binding ability to D-Trp.

Summary: A chiral voltammetric sensor based on carbon black paste electrode was developed for the recognition and determination of tryptophan enantiomers. The sensor showed better recognition towards L-TRP compared to D-TRP, with a linear correlation between peak currents of TRP enantiomers and their concentration. Experimental results demonstrated satisfactory recoveries in human urine and blood plasma, with a detection limit of 1.71 pM for L-TRP and 2.23 pM for D-TRP.
