Comparing biomimetic and biological receptors for insulin sensing

Abstract

Biological information such as recognition abilities of antibodies can be transferred to man-made systems by imprinting. For instance, sensor layers with insulin-selective cavities yield similar selectivity and sensitivity as IgG. True “artificial antibodies” are achieved by synthesizing “polymer copies” retaining the original binding properties of anti-insulin IgG via two-step imprinting.
