Hybrid Molecularly Imprinted Polymers: The Future of Nanomedicine?
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been widely used in nanomedicine in the last few years. However, their potential is limited by their intrinsic properties resulting, for instance, in lack of control in drug release processes or complex ...
