Abstract:		"The materials described in this work result from the self-assembly of liquid crystals and ionic liquids into droplets, stabilized within a biopolymeric matrix. These systems are extremely versatile gels, in terms of composition, and offer potential for fine tuning of both structure and function, as each individual component can be varied. Here, the characterization and application of these gels as sensing thin films in gas sensor devices is presented. The unique supramolecular structure of the gels is explored for molecular recognition of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by employing gels with distinct formulations to yield combinatorial optical and electrical responses used in the distinction and identification of VOCs"
