Features: This book is one of the volumes in the "Frontiers of Modern Chemistry Translation Series." Molecular imprinting is an emerging discipline involving fundamental subjects such as physical chemistry, polymer chemistry, analytical chemistry, and supramolecular chemistry. It has developed based on theoretical and practical needs in molecular recognition, acceptor design, supramolecular weak interactions, product identification, and separation. Molecular imprinting methods simplify the complexities of acceptors and their design and synthesis through supramolecular and polymer approaches, greatly facilitating the establishment of new recognition and identification systems. This brings significant convenience to analytical identification and product separation in laboratories and industrial sectors. The book presents a systematic, vivid, and accessible introduction to the fundamental theories and experimental methods of imprinting, accompanied by detailed experimental procedures, making it highly beneficial for teaching and experimental personnel to refer to and apply. Additionally, the book includes a wealth of references. It can serve as a reference for graduate students, teachers, and scientific and technical personnel in chemistry-related fields at universities and institutions.
