The Molecular Imprinting 'Black Box': Why We Stopped Guessing and Started Calculating Sensor Selectivity
Akeem Adeyemi Oladipo
We frequently treat Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) like magic sponges. We mix monomers, extract the template, and hope for selectivity. In our latest paper, we combined DFT with a Co3O4/TiO2 heterojunction to replace empirical guesswork with quantum-level certainty.
