A recent strategy for developing supramolecular
logic gates in water is based on combinations
of molecules via self-assembly with surfactants, which
eliminates the need for time-consuming synthesis. The
self-assembly of surfactants and lumophores and receptors
can result in interesting properties providing cooperative
e ffects useful for molecular information processing
and other potential applications such as drug delivery
systems. This article highlights some of the recent advancements
in supramolecular information processing
using microheterogeneous media including micelles in
aqueous solution.peer-reviewe
