CS1 maint: bot: original URL status unknown ( link) Cope Scholar Awards awarded in 2006 for his research in pattern recognition and supramolecular chemistry and the Izatt-Christensen Award in Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry in 2013. Anslyn received one of the American Chemical Society Arthur C. Anslyn designed a fluorometric chemical sensor consisting of a light-tight lego box and a smart phone to detect nerve agents such as VX and sarin. An analogous colorimetric sensor was developed to mimic human taste by positioning polymer microbeads on a silicon chip. Anslyn developed a colorimetric sensor to distinguish flavonoids (hydrolysis products of tannins) between varietals of red wines. Anslyn is notable for his work in developing designed receptors and sensor arrays by incorporating principal component analysis and discriminant analysis to mimic human taste and smell.
