Continuous Monitoring of Glutamate using Electroactive Templated Polymers as Synthetic Molecular Receptors

Key Points

• This research aims to develop a method for continuous monitoring of glutamate in the brain using synthetic molecular receptors.
• Utilized electroactive templated polymers as synthetic receptors for glutamate.
• Conducted experiments to assess the selectivity and sensitivity of the receptors.
• Monitored glutamate levels in spatiotemporal contexts within brain tissue.
• Successfully demonstrated selective detection of glutamate in real-time.
• Showed that electroactive polymers can effectively function as molecular receptors.
• Found improved resolution over traditional monitoring techniques.
