CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] This application claims priority under the provisions of 35 USC 119 to Swedish Patent Application No. 1430090-9 filed on Jun. 26, 2014. The disclosure of Swedish Patent Application No. 1430090-9 is hereby incorporated herein by reference, in its entirety, for all purposes.TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present describes new molecularly imprinted polymers and a method for their production using novel particle technology based on multifunctional placeholder templates.BACKGROUND ART
[0003] Molecular imprinting refers to a templating technique for producing inverse replicas of individual molecules in network polymer. This approach has been used to generate porous materials exhibiting receptor-like affinity for a large variety of template structures. Commonly referred to as plastic antibodies, these can now be produced of a similar size and featuring binding properties resembling antibodies. Their ability to function in complex environments including b...
