The paper reviews recent developments in the use of molecularly imprinted polymers in several analytical techniques, such as solid-phase extraction, liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, capillary electrochromatography, and as selective sorbents in chemical sensors. Molecular imprinting is achieved by the interaction between complementary groups in a template molecule and functional monomer units. The benefits of imprinted polymers are low cost, storage stability, high mechanical strength, repeated operations without loss of activity, and potential application to a wide range of target molecules.
Key words: molecularly imprinted polymers – solid-phase extraction – liquid chromatography – electrochromatography – membranes – sensors
