Phenylboronic acid azoprobe (B-Azo-Cb) for saccharide recognition was synthesized. B-AzoCb/polyamidoamine (PAMAM) complex was synthesized by the condensation reaction of terminal carboxylic group of B-Azo-Cb and surface amine of PAMAM dendrimer. Thin porous cellulose acetate membrane embedded with B-Azo-Cb/PAMAM dendrimer complex was prepared from cellulose acetate, formamide, acetone, and B-Azo-Cb/PAMAM dendrimer complex by casting on the glass plate at various temperatures. The saccharide transportability was evaluated by measuring the amount of saccharide in receiving solution. The amount of saccharide transport of porous cellulose acetate membrane embedded with B-Azo-Cb/PAMAM dendrimer complex was higher at low temperature-treated membrane, and low pH of receiving solution. In contrast, the saccharide transportabilities through non-treated cellulose acetate membrane were the same at any pH of receiving solution. Saccharide transportability was in the order of galactose > glucose > fructose (B-Azo-Cb/PAMAM G4 modified membrane), and glucose > galactose > fructose (B-Azo-Cb/PAMAM G5 modified membrane). These orders were the same of the saccharide response in solution. These results indicated that the saccharide transport of B-AzoCb/PAMAM-embedded membrane is successfully mediated by the phenylboronic acid.
