The study of complex reaction networks with highly nonlinear dynamics is a rapidly expanding field which, due to its numerous implications in the field of systems chemistry, is expected to grow rapidly in the future. Further developments and exploitations in a variety of analytical or bioanalytical applications are also expected, especially considering the versatility and generic character of the present molecular amplification strategy. Finally, we believe that the approach proposed here has also potential for applications in cellular imaging or drug delivery, notably by taking advantage of probes or pro-drugs capable of selectively and autocatalytically delivering the active molecule in vivo.
