Molecularly imprinted polymers are synthetic receptors for a targeted molecule. As such,
they are analogues of the natural antibody–antigen systems. In this review, after a …

This paper presents an overview of the recent applications of molecularly imprinted
polymers (MIPs) to sample preparation. The review is thought to cover analytical procedures …

Mycotoxins are a problematic and toxic group of small organic molecules that are produced
as secondary metabolites by several fungal species that colonise crops. They lead to …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a powerful mycotoxin that can cause severe damage to human health,
and its detection has attracted considerable attention in the field of food science. We present …

Biological and synthetic recognition elements are at the heart of the majority of modern
bioreceptor assays. Traditionally, enzymes and antibodies have been integrated in the …

Colorimetric and fluorescent methods for Ochratoxin A (OTA) detection are convenient and
well received. However, the pigments and autofluorescence originated from food matrices …

Fungi-induced postharvest diseases are the leading causes of food loss and waste. In this
context, fruit decay can be directly attributed to phytopathogenic and/or mycotoxin-producing …

Highly sensitive and rapid methods for the Ochratoxin A (OTA) detection as a main class of
Ochratoxins (OT) in various food samples is significant. In the present review, novel OTA …

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungal species, which pose significant
risk to humans and livestock. The mycotoxins which are produced from Aspergillus …

The design of graphene quantum dots (GQDs)-aptamer bioconjugates as the new sensing
platform is very important for developing high-sensitivity fluorescent biosensors; however …
