• , two aromatic o-xylylene walls, and four sulfonates as solubilizing ionic groups. In accord with these structural features, M1 binds a variety of hydrophobic and cationic guest molecules by the hydrophobic effect, π–π interactions, and electrostatic (ion–dipole and ion–ion) interactions. Although

• directed our efforts towards sensing carboxylates. The detection of these analytes is important in a number of areas and there is an obvious lack of easy-to-use sensing methods. Carboxylates are challenging analytes for two reasons. Firstly, binding is mainly achieved through either ion–ion interactions or

• account specific ion–ion interactions. To identify specific ion–ion interactions possibly contributing to the aggregation of proteins, we have used dynamic light scattering (DLS) to probe the aggregation of charged cavitands. DLS measurements of negatively charged 1 in the presence of a range of alkali

As a result, as Smith has eloquently pointed out [1], the effects of buffers and salts on

Changes in the ZP values have been observed in the literature for different ferrites after the ion-adsorption process, indicating the affinity between them [44].
