Quantum dot-imprinted polymers with size and shell-selective recognition properties.

The emergence of nanotechnology has stimulated a great deal of research to detect engineered nanoparticles spread out in the environment. We address this issue here by designing quantum dot-imprinted polymers for the speciation of nanoparticles based on their size, shape and surface chemistry.
