Cosimino Malitesta,Elisabetta Mazzotta,Rosaria Anna Picca,Alessandro Poma,Iva Chianella,Sergey A. Piletsky +5 more
TL;DR: This review highlights the importance of coupling molecular imprinting technology with methodology based on electrochemical techniques for the development of advanced sensing devices and describes possible approaches proposed in the literature on this topic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid-Phase Synthesis of Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Nanoparticles with a Reusable Template - "Plastic Antibodies".
Alessandro Poma,Antonio Guerreiro,Michael J. Whitcombe,Elena V. Piletska,Anthony Turner,Sergey A. Piletsky +5 more
TL;DR: This work reports a reusable solid-phase template approach (fully compatible with automation) for the synthesis of MIP nanoparticles and their precise manufacture using a prototype automated UV photochemical reactor and demonstrates the reliable re-use of molecular templates in the synthesisof MIPs for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solid-phase synthesis of molecularly imprinted nanoparticles
TL;DR: This work developed a method for the synthesis of MIP nanoparticles (nanoMIPs) using an innovative solid-phase approach, which relies on the covalent immobilization of the template molecules onto the surface of a solid support (glass beads).
Journal ArticleDOI
