A new mechanistic diagram describing the non-covalent molecular imprinting process is put
forth in the text. A significant consequence of the new mechanistic picture is that the pre …

The molecular imprinting technique can be defined as the formation of specific nano-sized
cavities by means of the facile template-directed synthesis. The resulting molecularly …

Studies on generating artificial macromolecular receptors by molecular imprinting of
synthetic polymers significantly emerged in the literature during last decades. The non …

Molecular imprinting technology (MIT) concerns formation of selective sites in a polymer
matrix with the memory of a template. Recently, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have …

Molecular imprinting is one of the most efficient methods to fabricate functional polymer
structures with pre-defined molecular recognition selectivity. Molecularly imprinted polymers …

MIP is a potential method for fabricating polymeric materials with binding sites that have
predetermined selectivity for a targeted analyte. The quality of the binding sites in MIP is …

The underlying mechanisms for molecular recognition exhibited by the imprinting effect can
be attributed to two processes. The pre-organization of complementary functional groups in …

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have significant relevance to analytical sensing due
to their functionalized and template-specific structurally complementary cavities, providing …

Molecular imprinting technology is well established in areas where a high selectivity is
required, such as catalysis, sensing, and separations/sample preparation. However …

We examined the influence of functional monomer dimerization on the efficiency of the
molecular imprinting process. Specifically, the influence of methacrylic acid (MAA) …
