Description
Summary:This review covers the analytical properties and applications of micro- and nanostructured molecularly imprinted polymers. The first two parts focused on their intrinsic and receptor properties specific to 0–1 dimensional MIP nanoobjects. The third part reviews the recent publication regarding the 2–3D patterned MIP structures mainly focusing on their sensor and microarray applications. Several patterning techniques that can be used for the fabrication of MIP microsensors/arrays are explained. Finally, a recent publication on some other nanomaterials (metal and semiconductor nanoparticles), which are compatible with MIP receptors to enhance the sensitivity, is discussed.
