The availability of materials that can bind selectively to a target molecule is the key to unlocking a host of new technologies. Molecular imprinting is an established technology, which allows the synthesis of materials containing highly specific receptor sites having an affinity for a target compound. For example, molecularly imprinted materials can mimic some of the functions of enzymes through the creation of three-dimensional cavities of specific size and shape for biorecognition of bioactive compounds. This volume offers a forum for technical exchange among members of the worldwide community of scientists and engineers who work in the area of molecular imprinting. Researchers from academia, government and industry present results in applications of molecular imprinting related to catalysis, combinatorial and computational methods, new monomers and recognition strategies, sensors, drug discovery and therapy, and new molecular imprinting formats.
