Here we investigated the interactions between lectins and carbohydrates using field-effect transistor (FET) devices comprised of chemically converted graphene (CCG) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Pyrene- and porphyrin-based glycoconjugates were functionalized noncovalently on the surface of CCG-FET and SWNT-FET devices, which were then treated with 2 μM nonspecific and specific lectins. In particular, three different lectins (PA-IL, PA-IIL, and ConA) and three carbohydrate epitopes ...[more]
