Nanoporous imprinted polymers (nanoMIPs) for controlled release of cancer drug.

In this article, a new approach to directly synthesize drug molecule imbedded in the nanometer sized polymer particles is reported. Molecular imprinting is used to prepare polymers for drug specific for selectively loading of a desired drug. Computer simulations were performed to provide mechanistic insights on the binding modalities of model cancer drug, amygdalin with the polymer precursors.
