Abstract
This proposal envisages the use of intergrated in situ holographic elements to `report' ligand binding events in thin films of non-covalently imprinted polymers. Key aspects of the programme include the development of a range of new approaches for imprinting selective binding cavaties in thin polymer films, the fabrication of holograms in imprinted films and their subsequent assessment as inexpensive and durable sensors. Proof-of-principle will be established by the development of a molecularly imprinted holographic sensor to illicit drugs.
