Abstract
Recent years have witnessed a dramatic increase in the use of theoretical and computational approaches in the study and development of molecular imprinting systems. These tools are being used to either improve understanding of the mechanisms underlying the function of molecular imprinting systems or for the design of new systems. Here, we present an overview of the literature describing the application of theoretical and computational techniques to the different stages of the molecular imprinting process (pre-polymerization mixture, polymerization process and ligand-molecularly imprinted polymer rebinding), along with an analysis of trends within and the current status of this aspect of the molecular imprinting field.

Abstract
The need to develop innovative and reformative approaches to synthesize chemical sensors has increased in recent years because of demands for selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. Mimetic enzymes provide an efficient and convenient method for chemical sensors. This review summarizes the application of mimetic enzymes in chemical sensors. Mimetic enzymes can be classified into five categories: hydrolases, oxidoreductases, transferases, isomerases, and induced enzymes. Potential and recent applications of mimetic enzymes in chemical sensors are reviewed in detail, and the outlook of profound development has been illustrated.

Abstract
ABSTRACTWhen small organic molecules (e.g. amino acids, nucleotides, and so on) are incorporated in metal oxide particles formed from metal alkoxide in the sol-gel process, the organic moieties can be removed readily by solvent washing or by degradative oxidation. Under proper conditions, nano-sized cavities corresponding to the shape of the individual organic moiety are produced within the metal oxide network as molecularly imprinted material such as surface molecularly imprinted TiO2. We tried to fabricate nano-sized particle of TiO2 to increase the effective contact area for the reactants, and further additional function for molecular recognition was intended to introduce through the surface modification of the molecular imprinting method in order to enhance the photoreduction of viologen. In this context, we prepared viologen imprinted TiO2 as an active and stable photocatalyst for photoreduction of viologen as a well-defined and readily identifiable and reversible electron carrier with appropriate redox potential for photoactivated TiO2. The basic concept of molecularly imprinting in this system is as follows. Oxidized viologen is generally twisted and dication molecule. While, reduced viologen is planar and monocation radical. Once TiO2 has such recognition site on its surface, it would be distinguishable through shape or charge recognition or both factors and facilitate the inclusion or exclusion of the target molecule result the enhancement of the reduction. After the preparation of the template, sol-gel imprinting was performed. Measuring its dynamic light scattering monitored changes of the particle sizes and the diameter was stabilized ca 120 nm after 1 week stirring. X-ray diffraction pattern of the TiO2 powder after the dryness without calcination indicates the dominant peak for anatase. Removal of the template was almost 36% after the alkaline rinsing by measuring its UV vis spectra of the washings. A buffered solution of Tris including viologen was irradiated through a xenon lamp under stirring in a quartz cuvett in Ar with or without the TiO2 with cut-off filter at room temperature. The formation of viologen monocation radical whose color is blue was easily recognized only in the reaction with TiO2. The formation of viologen monocation radicals from three types of (methyl, hexyl, and pentacarboxyl) viologens with time in the presence of the imprinted TiO2 and blank one was monitored spectrophotometrically. Blank means that it was fabricated similar way to the imprinted one without the template. Among these results, aliphatic C6 side chains of bipyridinium and terminal carboxyl groups were not effective to enhance. On the other hand, the less bulkiness methyl viologen resulted the highest yield. The most important result is that higher conversion was observed in every case of imprinted TiO2 compared with blank one. Therefore, the key point for recognition is not peripheral part, but bipyridinium part of the viologen.

Abstract
The further evolution of molecularly imprinted polymer science and technology necessitates the development of robust predictive tools capable of handling the complexity of molecular imprinting systems. A combination of the rapid growth in computer power over the past decade and significant software developments have opened new possibilities for simulating aspects of the complex molecular imprinting process. We present here a survey of the current status of the use of in silico-based approaches to aspects of molecular imprinting. Finally, we highlight areas where ongoing and future efforts should yield information critical to our understanding of the underlying mechanisms sufficient to permit the rational design of molecularly imprinted polymers.

Abstract
Molecular modelling and computational screening were used to identify functional monomers capable of interacting with several different photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides. The process involved the design of a virtual library of molecular models of functional monomers containing polymerizable residues and residues able to interact with the template through electrostatic, hydrophobic, Van der Waals forces and dipole-dipole interactions. Each of the entries in the virtual library was probed for its possible interactions with molecular models of the template molecules. It was anticipated that the monomers giving the highest binding score would represent good candidates for the preparation of affinity polymers. Strong interactions were computationally determined between acidic functional monomers like methacrylic acid (MAA) or itaconic acid (IA) with triazines, and between vinylimidazole with bentazone and bromoxynil. Nevertheless, weaker interactions were seen with phenylureas. The corresponding blank polymers were prepared using the selected monomers and tested in the solid phase extraction (SPE) of herbicides from chloroform solutions. A good correlation was found between the binding score of the monomers and the affinities of the corresponding polymers. The use of computationally designed blanks can potentially eliminate the need for molecular imprinting, (adding a template to the monomer mixture to create specific binding sites). Data also showed that some monomers have a natural selectivity for some herbicides, which can be further enhanced by imprinting. Thus, in regard to retention on the blank polymer, we can estimate if the resulting imprinted polymer will be effective or not.
