Abstract:
Molecular imprinting technology (MIT) is a technique for generating polymers bearing biomimetic receptors. It offers several advantages to the agrofood industry in areas such as analysis, sensoring, extraction, or preconcentration of components. It has the potential of becoming a tool for acquiring truly simple, rapid, and robust direct measurements. In this review, the special features of MIT that have bearing on food science and technology are highlighted.
