Molecular imprinting technology for protein recognition

Molecular imprinting is air effective technique for the creation of recognition sites in a polymer network. Protein imprinting has been a focus for many chemists working in the area of molecular recognition, since the creation of synthetic polymers that can specifically recognize proteins is challenging and extremely applicably valuable. This review gives an overview of the progress about molecularly imprinted polymers ( MIPs) for protein recognition in the recent decade, discusses different approaches developed, underlines their relative advantages and disadvantages and highlights trends and possible future directions
