    Author: Cheong WJ, Ali F, Choi JH, Lee JO, Yune Sung K.
    Journal: Talanta; 2013 Mar 15; 106():45-59. PubMed ID: 23598094.
    Abstract:
    Molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) techniques have been increasingly used in a variety of fields including chromatography, sample pretreatment, purification, sensors, drug delivery, and catalysts, etc. MIP is a specific artificial receptor that shows favored affinity to the template molecule. The cavities of the template are produced by carrying out polymerization of a reaction mixture followed by eliminating the template molecules by washing. Various forms of MIP materials have been prepared for diverse applications including irregularly ground particles, regular spherical particles, nanoparticles, monoliths in a stainless steel or capillary column, open tubular layers in capillaries, membranes, surface attached thin layers, and composites, etc. When an enantiomer is used as the template, then the resulting MIP can show capability of enantiomeric recognition between the pair of enantiomers. In this review, progresses in applications of enantio-selective recognition by MIPs will be critically reviewed for the recent period since 2007.
