Recognition and neutralization of angiotensins I and II using an artificial nanogel receptor fabricated by ligand specificity determinant imprinting†
Abstract
A nanogel combined with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP-nanogel) receptor was prepared using the specificity determinant as a template in aqueous media. The artificial receptor can serve as the selective recognition element for angiotensins I and II and a novel way to control hypertension was investigated.
