Abstract
Molecular imprinting has emerged as an important and practical technology to create economical and stable synthetic mimics of antibodies and enzymes. It has already found a variety of important applications, such as affinity separation, chemical/biological sensing, disease diagnostics, proteomics, bioimaging, controlled drug release, and catalysis. In the past decade, significant breakthroughs have been made in non-covalently imprinted polymers, from their synthesis through to their applications. In terms of synthesis, quite a few versatile and facile imprinting approaches for preparing MIPs have been invented, which have effectively solved some key issues in molecular imprinting. Additionally, important applications in several areas, such as sensors, proteomics and bioimaging, have been well demonstrated. In this review, we critically and comprehensively survey key recent advances made in the preparation of non-covalently imprinted polymers and their important applications. We focus on the state-of-art of this technology from three different perspectives: fundamentals, synthetic strategies, and applications. We first provide a fundamental basis for molecular imprinting technologies that have been developed, which is extremely helpful for establishing a sound understanding of the challenges in molecular imprinting. Then, we discuss in particular the major breakthroughs within the last ten years (2014-2024), with emphasis on new imprinting approaches, what strengths the breakthroughs can provide, and which new applications the properties of the prepared non-covalently imprinted polymers are fit for.

Abstract
Currently, Nernstian-response-based polymeric membrane potentiometric sensors using molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as receptors have been successfully developed for determination of organic ionic species. However, the preparation of these MIP receptors usually involves tedious and time-consuming template-removal procedures. Herein, a template-removal-free MIP is proposed and used as a receptor for fabrication of a potentiometric sensor. The proposed methodology not only significantly shortens the preparation time of MIP-based potentiometric sensors but also improves the batch-to-batch reproducibility of these sensors. By using antibiotic vancomycin as a model, the new concept offers a linear concentration range of 1.0 × 10-7 to 1.0 × 10-4 mol L-1 with a detection limit of 2.51 × 10-8 mol L-1. It can be expected that the template-removal-free MIP-based sensing strategy could lay the foundation for simple fabrication of electrochemical sensors without the need for template removal such as potentiometric and capacitive sensors and ion-sensitive field-effect transistors.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131132.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) is an essential biomacromolecule in the blood circulatory system because it carries numerous molecules, including fatty acids (FAs), bilirubin, metal ions, hormones, and different pharmaceuticals, and plays a significant role in regulating blood osmotic pressure. Fluctuations in HSA levels in human biofluids, particularly urine and serum, are associated with several disorders, such as elevated blood pressure, diabetes mellitus (DM), liver dysfunction, and a wide range of renal diseases. Thus, the ability to quickly and accurately measure HSA levels is important for the rapid identification of these disorders in human populations. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), well known as artificial antibodies (Abs), have been extensively used for the quantitative detection of small molecules and macromolecules, especially HSA, in recent decades. This review highlights major challenges and recent developments in the application of MIPs to detect HSA in artificial and real samples. The fabrication and application of various MIPs for the depletion of HSA are also discussed, as well as different MIP preparation approaches and strategies for overcoming obstacles that hinder the development of MIPs with high efficiency and recognition capability for HSA determination/depletion.

Abstract
In this study, a new sandwich-type immunoenzymatic assay, based on a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as an artificial antibody (pseudo-ELISA), was developed for the determination of procalcitonin (PCT) in veterinary species. The quantification of PCT in human medicine represents the state of the art for the diagnosis of sepsis; instead the clinical studies on the relevance of PCT as a sepsis predictor in veterinary patients are few, likely due to the total absence of validated assays. MIPs have been widely used as antibody mimics for important applications, and MIP-based sandwich assays have emerged as promising analytical tools for the detection of disease biomarkers. Herein, a polynorepinephrine (PNE)-based imprinted film was directly synthesized on the well surface of a 96-well plate. Subsequently, based on a commercial ELISA kit, the PCT quantification was accomplished via a colorimetric sandwich assay by replacing the capture antibody of the kit with the PNE-based MIP. This method was performed to detect canine and equine PCT in buffer and in plasma samples. Under optimal conditions, the results obtained in plasma samples showed a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.87 ng mL-1 and a reproducibility (CVav%) of 10.0% for canine samples, while a LOD = 4.46 ng mL-1 and CVav% = 7.61% were obtained for equine samples.

Abstract
Epitope imprinting is an effective way to create artificial receptors for protein recognition. Surface imprinting with immobilized templates and sacrificial supports can generate high-quality imprinted cavities of homogeneous orientation and good accessibility, but it is still challenging to fabricate nanoscale imprinted materials by this approach. Herein, we propose a method for the controlled synthesis of open-mouthed epitope-imprinted polymer nanocapsules (OM-MIP NCs) by limiting the imprinting polymerization on the template-bearing side of the Janus nanoparticles (JNPs). Concurrent bromoacetyl (Ac–Br) and 2-bromoisobutyryl (iB–Br) functionalization of the major portion of SiO2 nanoparticles is achieved via the molten-wax-in-water Pickering emulsion approach. The cysteinyl-derived epitope templates are immobilized through the Ac–Br groups, and then surface imprinting is fulfilled via ATRP initiated by the iB–Br groups. The SiO2 supports are partially etched and then PEGlated, affording OM-MIP NCs with a PEGylated nanocore. The inside nanocore can facilitate collection of the NCs by centrifugation, and its PEGylation can inhibit non-specific binding. The surface imprinting can be optimized through the ATRP time, and the etching can be tailored via the concentration of NH4HF2 employed. For proof-of-concept, with a C-terminus nonapeptide of bovine serum albumin (BSA) chosen as a model epitope and polymerizable carbon dots added to the pre-polymerization solution, fluorescent OM-MIP NCs were fabricated for BSA sensing. The as-synthesized NCs exhibited satisfactory detection performance, with an imprinting factor of 6.1, a limit of detection of 38.1 nM, a linear range of 0.25–6 μM, and recoveries of 98.0 to 104.0% in bovine serum samples. Surface epitope imprinting over the one side of Janus SiO2 NPs via ATRP affords open-mouthed epitope-imprinted nanocapsules with imprinted cavities of homogeneous orientation and good accessibility for fluorescence detection of target protein.![]()

Abstract
Molecularly Imprinted Polymer (MIP) has a specific cavity in which the conformity of shape, size, and functionalities corresponds with its template molecule and has been widely used in separation processes. Therefore, this study aims to examine the application of MIP for the purification of andrographolide. The MIP was synthesized by precipitation polymerization using methacrylic acid (MAA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the functional monomer and cross-linker, andrographolide as a template, and acetonitrile:toluene (3:1) as porogen solvent. The results showed that the binding capacity of Synthesized MIP was 1.2486 mg/g, while the particle size was 295.5 nm with a polydispersity index of 0.064. Furthermore, the imprinting and selectivity factors were 1.148 and 12.37, respectively. The purification process by MIP increased the purity from 55.37 ± 0.69 to 94.94% ± 0.34, while the isolate characterization showed that purified andrographolide had a similar character compared to the standard.

Abstract
Recent developments of point-of-care testing (POCT) and in vitro diagnostic medical devices have provided analytical capabilities and reliable diagnostic results for rapid access at or near the patient's location. Nevertheless, the challenges of reliable diagnosis still remain an important factor in actual clinical trials before on-site medical treatment and making clinical decisions. New classes of POCT devices depict precise diagnostic technologies that can detect biomarkers in biofluids such as sweat, tears, saliva or urine. The introduction of a novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) system as an artificial bioreceptor for the POCT devices could be one of the emerging candidates to improve the analytical performance along with physicochemical stability when used in harsh environments. Here, we review the potential availability of MIP-based biorecognition systems as custom artificial receptors with high selectivity and chemical affinity for specific molecules. Further developments to the progress of advanced MIP technology for biomolecule recognition are introduced. Finally, to improve the POCT-based diagnostic system, we summarized the perspectives for high expandability to MIP-based periodontal diagnosis and the future directions of MIP-based biosensors as a wearable format.

Abstract
Molecular imprinted polymers are custom made materials with specific recognition sites for a target molecule. Their specificity and the variety of materials and physical shapes in which they can be fabricated make them ideal components for sensing platforms. Despite their excellent properties, MIP-based sensors have rarely left the academic laboratory environment. This work presents a comprehensive review of recent reports in the environmental and biomedical fields, with a focus on electrochemical and optical signaling mechanisms. The discussion aims to identify knowledge gaps that hinder the translation of MIP-based technology from research laboratories to commercialization.

Abstract
The work reports an innovative bioassay for the detection of gonadorelin in urine, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist widely used in fertility medicine and to treat hormonal dysfunctions. Gonadorelin is also a synthetic hormone listed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and of interest in anti-doping controls. The main novelty relies on the development of a biocompatible, stable, and low-cost biomimetic receptor alternative to classic antibodies. Starting from norepinephrine monomer, a highly selective and sensitive molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was developed and optimized for optical real-time and label-free SPR biosensing. The selectivity has been addressed by testing a series of peptides, from high to low similarity, both in terms of molecular weight and primary sequence. Due to the very low molecular weight of gonadorelin (1182 Da), a 'two-steps' competitive assay was developed. Particular attention has been paid to the design of the competitor and its binding affinity constant towards the MIP, being a key step for the success of the competitive strategy. The SPR assay was first optimized in standard conditions and finally applied to untreated urine samples, achieving the sensitivity required by WADA guidelines. The MIP, tested in parallel with a monoclonal antibody, gave comparable results in terms of affinity constants and selectivity towards possible interfering analytes. However, the biomimetic receptor appears clearly superior in terms of sensitivity and reproducibility. This, together with its preparation simplicity, the extremely low-cost of the monomer and its reusability for hundreds of measurements, make polynorepinephrine-based MIPs powerful rivals to immune-based approaches in the near future for similar applications.

Abstract
Depletion of human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant protein in human plasma, from serum/plasma is a prerequisite before their proteomic analysis. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) using HSA as a template have been designed for this purpose, but suffer from a low sorption capacity and low selectivity. Here, a new HSA-imprinted polymer was synthesized using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) as the main monomer; acrylamide (AAm), methacrylic acid (MAA), and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) as functional monomers; and oligoglutamic acid-based peptide crosslinker (PC) as a crosslinker at pH 5.5. When pH is adjusted to 7.4, the peptide chains in the polymer change from a helical conformation to an extended coil conformation, and the polymer swells. Consequently, the template protein is removed completely. When pH is adjusted back to 5.5, the peptide chains fold back precisely to the helical conformation. Both the size and shape of the imprint cavities are restored. Therefore, the polymer rebinds the template protein selectively. Highest imprinting factor (IF) was observed at pH 5.5 at which the polymer was synthesized. The IF increases with the increasing number of glutamic acid residues in the PCs because of their increased degree of helicity at pH 5.5. No improvement in imprinting effect was observed when using a peptide crosslinker containing both L- and D-glutamic acid residues and hence incapable of folding into α-helix, further confirming the key role of the pH-induced helix-coil transition of the peptide chains. The MIP synthesized here presents a much higher affinity to HSA than the nontemplate proteins. It could be used repeatedly without evident decrease in sorption capacity. Because of the mild eluting conditions, the secondary structure of the extracted HSA protein remains unchanged. Finally, the MIP was used to deplete HSA from human serum. Because of its high sorption capacity and high selectivity, HSA was depleted completely and selectively. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A new molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) using human serum albumin (HSA) as a template was synthesized using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) as the main monomer; acrylamide (AAm), methacrylic acid (MAA), and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) as functional monomers; and oligoglutamic acid-based peptide crosslinker as a crosslinker. Because of the reversible and precise pH-induced helix-coil transition of the peptide chains, the template protein was removed facilely and completely under mild conditions. Simultaneously, a significant improvement in imprinting efficiency was obtained. The sorption capacity was as high as 648.05 mg/g and the imprinting factor was 7.9. Because of its high selectivity and high binding capacity, the MIP synthesized here is highly promising for the depletion of HSA, the most abundant protein in serum, which is a prerequisite for its proteomic analysis. For the first time, complete and selective depletion of HSA from human serum was achieved using a protein-imprinted polymer.

Abstract
Billions of dollars are invested into the monoclonal antibody market every year to meet the increasing demand in clinical diagnosis and therapy. However, natural antibodies still suffer from poor stability and high cost, as well as ethical issues in animal experiments. Thus, developing antibody substitutes or mimics is a long-term goal for scientists. The molecular imprinting technique presents one of the most promising strategies for antibody mimicking. The molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are also called "molecularly imprinted synthetic antibodies" (MISAs). The breakthroughs of key technologies and innovations in chemistry and material science in the last decades have led to the rapid development of MISAs, and their molecular affinity has become comparable to that of natural antibodies. Currently, MISAs are undergoing a revolutionary transformation of their applications, from initial adsorption and separation to the rising fields of biomedicine. Herein, the fundamental chemical design of MISAs is examined, and then current progress in biomedical applications is the focus. Meanwhile, the potential of MISAs as qualified substitutes or even to transcend the performance of natural antibodies is discussed from the perspective of frontier needs in biomedicines, to facilitate the rapid development of synthetic artificial antibodies.

Abstract
Accurate, simple, and valuable analytical methods for detection of food contamination are rapidly expanding to evaluate the validity of food product quality because of ethnic considerations and food safety. Herein molecularly imprinted nanogels (MIP-NGs), capable of porcine serum albumin (PSA) recognition, were prepared as artificial molecular recognition elements. The MIP-NGs were immobilized on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor for detection of pork contamination in real beef extract samples. The MIP-NGs-based QCM sensor showed high affinity and excellent selectivity toward PSA compared to reference serum albumins from five different animals. The high PSA specificity of MIP-NGs led to the detection of pork contamination with a detection limit of 1% (v/v) in real beef extract samples. We believe the artificial molecular recognition materials prepared by molecular imprinting are a promising candidate for halal food control.

Abstract
In this study, a novel detection method of methimazole was proposed based on the hollow molecularly imprinted quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor, in which the hollow imprinted polymers (H-MIPs) were firstly prepared through the surface imprinted techniques, using hollow silica spheres as matrix supporting material and methimazole as template molecule. The characterizations of H-MIPs were carefully studied. Compared with traditional MIPs, H-MIPs exhibited faster mass transfer rate and higher adsorption capacity. After coating onto the surface of Au chip, the H-MIPs QCM sensor was fabricated. Based on the frequency shift, good linear behavior in the range of 5-70 μg L-1, limit of detection of 3 μg L-1, and good recoveries of 88.32%-107.96% in the spiked pork, beef and milk were obtained. The analysis process could complete within 8 min. The developed sensor provided an effective, fast and accurate method for the methimazole detection in food samples.

Abstract
Molecular imprinting is a rapidly growing area of interest involving the synthesis of artificial recognition elements that enable the separation of analyte from a sample matrix and its determination. Traditionally, this approach can be successfully applied to small analyte (<1.5 kDa) separation/ extraction, but, more recently it is finding utility in biomimetic sensors. These sensors consist of a recognition element and a transducer similar to their biosensor counterparts, however, the fundamental distinction is that biomimetic sensors employ an artificial recognition element. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) employed as the recognition elements in biomimetic sensors contain binding sites complementary in shape and functionality to their target analyte. Despite the growing interest in molecularly imprinting techniques, the commercial adoption of this technology is yet to be widely realised for blood sample analysis. This review aims to assess the applicability of this technology for the point-of-care testing (POCT) of cardiovascular disease-related biomarkers. More specifically, molecular imprinting is critically evaluated with respect to the detection of cardiac biomarkers indicative of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), such as the cardiac troponins (cTns). The challenges associated with the synthesis of MIPs for protein detection are outlined, in addition to enhancement techniques that ultimately improve the analytical performance of biomimetic sensors. The mechanism of detection employed to convert the analyte concentration into a measurable signal in biomimetic sensors will be discussed. Furthermore, the analytical performance of these sensors will be compared with biosensors and their potential implementation within clinical settings will be considered. In addition, the most suitable application of these sensors for cardiovascular assessment will be presented.

Abstract
This review documents recent advances in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of molecularly imprinted polymers in the form of monoliths and particles/beads for the use in the separation and analysis of proteins with solid-phase extraction or liquid chromatography. The merits of three-dimensional molecular imprinting, whereby the molecular template is randomly embedded in the polymer, and two-dimensional imprinting, in which the template is confined to the surface, are described. Target protein binding can be achieved by either using the entire protein as a template or by using a protein substructure as template, that is, a peptide, as in the "epitope" approach. The intended approach and strategy then determine the choice of polymerization method. A synopsis has been provided on methods used for the physical, chemical, and functional characterizations and associated performance evaluations of molecularly imprinted and nonimprinted control polymers, involving a diverse range of analytical techniques commonly used for low and high molecular mass analytes. Examples of recent applications demonstrate that, due to the versatility of imprinting methods, molecularly imprinted monoliths or particles/beads can be adapted to protein extraction/depletion and separation procedures relevant to, for example, protein biomarker detection and quantification in biomedical diagnostics and targeted proteomics.

Abstract
The analysis of low-level protein biomarkers in serum is precluded by the presence of other highly abundant serum proteins. Hence, the preliminary removal of serum albumin along with other abundant proteins in serum (i.e., immunoglobulins, transferrin, haptoglobin, α-2-macroglobulin, and apolipoproteins) is often a requirement prior to any biomarker analysis. In this work, we take advantage of the low isoelectric points (pI's) of these highly abundant proteins to selectively deplete them from serum by extraction using functionalized amphiphilic polymeric nanoassemblies. The selectivity of extraction is dependent on the pI of the protein and the extraction pH, which holds true even for extremely complex protein mixtures like serum. High extraction capacity is achieved by optimizing the extraction conditions and is found to be comparable to currently available methods for depletion. Depletion of these abundant acidic proteins allows for the enhanced detection of higher pI proteins and enables a 3 orders of magnitude increase in detection sensitivity for a putative cancer biomarker, demonstrating the utility of these polymeric assemblies for enhancing the analysis of the serum proteome.

Abstract
In this presented study, a novel molecularly imprinted polymeric hydrogel membranes (PHMs) were developed to use for the albumin depletion studies. For this, albumin imprinted poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-(L)-phenylalanine methyl ester) polymeric hydrogel membranes [p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs] were synthesized by the photopolymerization technique, and then characterized by SEM, EDX, FT-IR and swelling studies. Synthesized PHMs had spherical structure and the MAP monomer incorporation onto the PHMs was determined by EDX analysis by using nitrogen stoichiometry. Also, the swelling ratio of the albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs was determined as 215%. The optimum albumin adsorption condition (adsorption capacity, medium pH, adsorption rate, temperature, ionic strength) were studied and the maximum albumin adsorption capacity was found to be as 34.28 mg/g PHMs. Selectivity experiments were also carried out with the presence of the competitive proteins such as lysozyme and amylase, and the results demonstrated that the albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs showed high affinity towards the BSA molecules than the competitive proteins of lysozyme and amylase. Adsorbed albumin was desorbed from the PHMs by 1.0 M of NaCl, and the reusability of the imprinted PHMs was also demonstrated for five successive adsorption-desorption cycles without any significant loss in the albumin adsorption capacity. As an application, sodium-dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to indicate the albumin depletion efficiency of albumin imprinted p(HEMA-MAP) PHMs. This presented study showed that, these imprinted membranes are promising for proteomic studies and applications, and can be used for the investigations for human diagnostics.

Abstract
Vitamin K was originally discovered as a cofactor required to activate clotting factors and has recently been shown to play a key role in the regulation of soft tissue calcification. This property of vitamin K has led to an increased interest in novel methods for accurate vitamin K detection. Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) could offer a solution, as they have been used as synthetic receptors in a large variety of biomimetic sensors for the detection of similar molecules over the past few decades, because of their robust nature and remarkable selectivity. In this article, the authors introduce a novel imprinting approach to create a MIP that is able to selectively rebind vitamin K₁. As the native structure of the vitamin does not allow for imprinting, an alternative imprinting strategy was developed, using the synthetic compound menadione (vitamin K₃) as a template. Target rebinding was analyzed by means of UV-visible (UV-VIS) spectroscopy and two custom-made thermal readout techniques. This analysis reveals that the MIP-based sensor reacts to an increasing concentration of both menadione and vitamin K₁. The Limit of Detection (LoD) for both compounds was established at 700 nM for the Heat Transfer Method (HTM), while the optimized readout approach, Thermal Wave Transport Analysis (TWTA), displayed an increased sensitivity with a LoD of 200 nM. The sensor seems to react to a lesser extent to Vitamin E, the analogue under study. To further demonstrate its potential application in biochemical research, the sensor was used to measure the absorption of vitamin K in blood serum after taking vitamin K supplements. By employing a gradual enrichment strategy, the sensor was able to detect the difference between baseline and peak absorption samples and was able to quantify the vitamin K concentration in good agreement with a validation experiment using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). In this way, the authors provide a first proof of principle for a low-cost, straightforward, and label-free vitamin K sensor.

Abstract
Synthetic receptors for biomacromolecules lack the supramolecular self-assembly behavior typical of biological systems. Here we propose a new method for the preparation of protein imprinted polymers based on the specific interaction of a peptide multi-functional block with a protein target. This peptide block contains a protein-binding peptide domain, a polymerizable moiety at the C-terminus and an environment-sensitive fluorescent molecule at the N-terminus. The method relies on a preliminary step consisting of peptide/protein supramolecular assembly, followed by copolymerization with the most common acrylate monomers (acrylamide, acrylic acid and bis-acrylamide) to produce a protein imprinted hydrogel polymer. Such a peptide block can function as an active assistant recognition element to improve affinity, and guarantees its effective polymerization at the protein/cavity interface, allowing for proper placement of a dye. As a proof of concept, we chose Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as the protein target and built the peptide block around a BSA binding dodecapeptide, with an allyl group as the polymerizable moiety and a dansyl molecule as the responsive dye. Compared to conventional approaches these hydrogels showed higher affinity (more than 45%) and imprinted sensitivity (about twenty fold) to the target, with a great BSA selectivity with respect to ovalbumin (α = 1.25) and lysozyme (α = 6.02). Upon protein binding, computational and experimental observations showed a blue shift of the emission peak (down to 440 nm) and an increase of fluorescence emission (twofold) and average lifetime (Δτ = 4.3 ns). Such an approach generates recognition cavities with controlled chemical information and represents an a priori method for self-responsive materials. Provided a specific peptide and minimal optimization conditions are used, such a method could be easily implemented for any protein target.

Abstract
Whilst the profiling of the transcriptome and proteome even of single-cells becomes feasible, the analysis of the translatome, which refers to all messenger RNAs (mRNAs) engaged with ribosomes for protein synthesis, is still an elaborate procedure requiring millions of cells. Herein, we report the generation and use of "smart materials", namely molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) to facilitate the isolation of ribosomes and translated mRNAs from merely 1,000 cells. In particular, we show that a hydrogel-based ribosome imprinted polymer could recover ribosomes and associated mRNAs from human, simian and mice cellular extracts, but did not selectively enrich yeast ribosomes, thereby demonstrating selectivity. Furthermore, ribosome imprinted polymers enabled the sensitive measurement of an mRNA translational regulatory event, requiring 1,000-fold less cells than current methodologies. These results provide first evidence for the suitability of MIPs to selectively recover ribonucleoprotein complexes such as ribosomes, founding a novel means for sensitive detection of gene regulation.

Abstract
Natural antibodies are widely used for their unprecedented reproducibility and the remarkable selectivity for a wide range of analytes. However, biodegradability and the need to work in biocompatible environments limit their applications. Molecularly imprinted polymers are a robust alternative. While molecularly imprinted polymers have shown remarkable selectivities for small molecules, large structures as proteins, viruses or entire cells are still problematic and flexible structures are virtually impossible to imprint. We have developed a method to form a polymeric copy of the antibodies instead. This book chapter aims to summarize the progress with this technique. To make it easier for other scientists to use this methods I critically discuss advantages and drawbacks of the method compared to alternative techniques. The discussion should help to identify for which applications this technique would be valuable. Finally, I provide a practical guide to use this new method. I highlight potential problems and give hints for possible improvements or adaptations for different applications.

Abstract
The accurate determination of intact macromolecules in biological samples, such as blood, plasma, serum, urine, tissue and feces is a challenging problem. The increased interest in macromolecules both as candidate drugs and as biomarkers for diagnostic purposes means that new method development approaches are needed. This review charts developments in the use of molecularly imprinted polymers first for small-molecular-mass compounds then for proteins and other macromolecules. Examples of the development of molecularly imprinted polymers for macromolecules are highlighted. The two main application areas to date are sensors and separation science, particularly SPE. Examples include peptides and polypeptides, lysozyme, hemoglobin, ovalbumin, bovine serum albumin and viruses.

Abstract
The present review article focuses on gathering, summarizing, and critically evaluating the results of the last decade on separating and sensing macromolecular compounds and microorganisms with the use of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) synthetic receptors. Macromolecules play an important role in biology and are termed that way to contrast them from micromolecules. The former are large and complex molecules with relatively high molecular weights. The article mainly considers chemical sensing of deoxyribonucleic acids (DNAs), proteins and protein fragments as well as sugars and oligosaccharides. Moreover, it briefly discusses fabrication of chemosensors for determination of bacteria and viruses that can ultimately be considered as extremely large macromolecules.

Abstract
Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) in serum has been suggested as a marker for breast cancer diagnosis, monitoring and treatment. However, sTfR levels in some situations could be far below the limit of quantification (LOQ) of most assays. Thus, an efficient sample pretreatment strategy is required. In this study, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were developed and coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based targeted proteomics for sTfR measurement. The key to this effort was that the same surrogate peptide of sTfR (VEYHFLSPYVSPK, VK13) was employed in both the enrichment by MIPs and the quantification by targeted proteomics. Specifically, three peptide templates with different lengths were evaluated for the synthesis of MIPs, and the imprinting conditions were optimized. The characteristics of MIPs, including the adsorption capacity, adsorption kinetics, and binding selectivity, were also investigated. As a result, a ∼12-fold enhancement of sensitivity was achieved using MIPs. An LOQ of 200 ng·mL(-1) was obtained. The intra- and interday precision were <10.7 and 7.8%, respectively. The accuracy was 7.5% at the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) and <8.4% for the other QC levels. After validation, the assay was applied to determine the sTfR levels in breast cancer patients (n = 20) and healthy volunteers (n = 20) using the standard addition method. The corresponding levels of sTfR were 1.59 ± 0.36 μg·mL(-1) (range: 0.96-2.34 μg·mL(-1)) in the volunteers and 1.82 ± 0.42 μg·mL(-1) (range: 0.95-2.47 μg·mL(-1)) in the patients. This study is among the first to combine MIPs and LC-MS/MS targeted proteomics for protein quantification at the peptide level.
