Abstract
This article describes the thermochromic, ionochromic, and affinitychromic properties of various neutral conjugated polymers. These optical features based on a conformational modification of the conjugated backbone induced from side-chain order/disorder transition have led to interesting colorimetric and/or fluorimetric transducers for various chemosensor and biosensor applications. In particular, the recent development of cationic, water-soluble, chromic polythiophenes has allowed the easy, rapid, specific, and ultra-sensitive detection of various nucleic acids and proteins in aqueous media. Clearly, this new platform which combines variable triggers and an optical transducer should create a new generation of useful tools in the areas of diagnostics, therapeutics, and drug screening.
