Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based electrochemical sensors and their recent advances in health applications

A novel electrochemical detection method for butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) as an antioxidant: a BHA imprinted polymer based on a nickel ferrite@graphene nanocomposite and its application

“…32 Therefore, in recent years, the use of molecularly imprinted polymers has increased in various fields and in many applications such as catalysis, separation, and sensors. 33…”

Development of an MIP based electrochemical sensor for TGF-β1 detection and its application in liquid biopsy

“…Moreover, the ease of measurement, the cheapness, the portability and the possibility to determine and monitor a wide range of analytes with a good limit of detection by electrochemical techniques have made electrochemical transducers very popular. 4–8 Several works reported the use of MIPs based on electro-polymerization of o -phenylenediamine ( o -PD) for the detection of several small template molecules, such as dopamine, 9 glucose, 10 dl -phenylalanine, 11 sorbitol, 12 and TnT, 13 while few works reported the use of MIPs for large molecules, including proteins, 13,14 because of the difficulty in removing high molecular weight molecules from the polymeric matrix.…”

High Recognition of Isomer-Stabilized Gold Nanoparticles through Matrix Imprinting

“…The recognition ability of these cavities is related to the size, shape, functional groups, chirality, and so forth of the template molecule. 20 Recently, the MIP concept has been expanded for the imprinting of large entities such as NPs, viruses, and cells. 21 In this emerging field termed surface-imprinted polymers (SIPs), a thin matrix imprints only part of the entity to enable its easy removal and rebinding.…”

“…Finally, the recognition sites (cavities) are created by the extraction of the template molecules. The recognition ability of these cavities is related to the size, shape, functional groups, chirality, and so forth of the template molecule …”
