A disulfide-group-carrying novel iniferter (a compound which pursues initiation, chain transfer, and termination) (Cys-BDC) was prepared by coupling N,N-diethyldithiocarbamoylmethylbenzoic acid succinimidyl ester with cystamine dihydrochloride. Block copolymerization of methacrylic acid (MA) and 2-methacryloyloxyethyl d-glucopyranoside (MEGlc) was performed by successive UV-irradiation in the presence of the iniferter and N,N,N‘,N‘-tetraethylthiuram disulfide. The block telomer formed a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on a gold electrode and vacuum-evaporated gold thin film, as confirmed by cyclic voltammetry and infrared reflection−absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS), respectively. The pH-responsiveness of the MA telomer block on the gold surface and silver colloid was confirmed by contact angle and ζ-potential measurements, respectively. Recognition of glucose residues in the MEGlc block by a lectin (Concanavalin A) was followed on the gold surface and silver colloid by IRRAS and turbidity measurements, resp...
