| Sumario: | Supramolecular chemistry has emerged as a very powerful tool in the construction of novel nanometer-sized architectures with remarkable properties. The combination of covalent modification with a wide range of non-covalent interactions allows the fine tuning of nanomaterial properties and the creation of innovative and advanced materials with distinct applications. The main objective of this work it to explore the possibility to combine the unique guest-complexing properties of cyclodextrins with polymeric materials to create novel nanoarchitectures. The present thesis describes the development of a new class of polymeric nanomaterials based on supramolecular host-guest interactions. These well-organized nanomaterials were prepared in a controlled manner by simple layer-by-layer deposition technique in aqueous solutions. They were successfully implemented in enzyme-encapsulating particle-based signal enhancement tools in biosensors and also could be used for different biomedical applications. Moreover, the prepared highly soluble carbon based polymeric nanostructures opens up new possibilities for many other applications such as photovoltaics or molecular electronics where the dispersion of acceptor molecules plays an important role in device fabrication and performance. |
