Dendrimers as fluorescent sensors with signal amplification

In a fourth generation poly(propylene amine) dendrimer decorated with 32 dansyl units at the periphery and containing 30 aliphatic amine units in the interior, the strong fluorescence of all the dansyl units is quenched when a Co2+ ion is incorporated into the dendrimer.
