Summary: This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors (MIES) for detecting Bisphenol A (BPA). Key findings show that MIES demonstrate comparable or superior detection limits to conventional methods, and exhibit excellent selectivity between BPA and structural analogs. Innovations in nanomaterials, novel monomers, and fabrication techniques have improved the sensitivity, selectivity, and stability of MIES. However, limitations exist in reproducibility, selectivity, and stability. Nonetheless, MIES offer a low-cost portable detection method suitable for on-site BPA monitoring in diverse sectors.

Summary: The accurate detection of biological substances such as proteins has always been a hot topic in scientific research. Biomimetic sensors seek to imitate sensitive and selective mechanisms of biological systems and integrate these traits into applicable sensing platforms. Molecular imprinting technology has been extensively practiced in many domains, producing molecular recognition materials with specific capabilities. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), also known as plastic antibodies, are artificial receptors with high-affinity binding sites for a particular molecule or compound. MIPs for protein recognition are expected to have high affinity through interactions between polymer matrices and functional groups of the target protein. This critical review discusses recent advances in the synthesis, characterization, and application of MIP-based sensor platforms for protein detection.
