Description

---

Although targeted as a guide for practicing scientists, this bookhas a uniquely textbook feel in its coverage of molecularlyimprinted polymers (MIPs) - defragmenting the subject bymoving from principles to current and future applications. The bookopens with discussion of MIP preparation principles, characterization, evaluation, and reporting. Next, chapters take afresh look at recent developments in the area of molecularimprinting, discussing major developments in research areas whereMIPs have found extensive use, such as separation science andsensing. The aim is educating readers and introducing standardoperating protocols. Lastly, the third part offers an insight atexciting developments looking towards future challenges and unmetneeds, for example: imprinted nanoparticles, drug delivery, imprinting of larger structures, and composite imprinted materials.
