Abstract

A novel method of molecular imprinting is described. Using a modified soft lithography technique, a molecularly-imprinted chemical detection device comprising at least one molecularly-imprinted polymer capable of detecting at least one chemical target is produced. The device can be used in the field for in situ detection and quantification of chemical targets using standard surface analytical techniques.
