Abstract:

Porphyrins generally exist in the natural world and living things. They are the significant protoplasm. As the bulks of biomacromolecules, porphyrins and their derivates have the distinct quality for biomolecular recognition:molecular structure diversity, shape selectivity, good stability, high sensitivity and so on. The recent development on porphyrins′ molecular recognition for DNA, amino acids, quinine, amine, etc is reviewed in this paper.

Key words: porphyrin, molecular recognition, biosensor, research progress
