What is MIMICS ?
MIMICS is a project which is funded by the European Community. Its objective is to realise a chemical sensor using a molecularly imprinted polymer. The main expected achievements for this sensor are:- a sensitivity to pesticides or herbicides
- an ability to work either in the gas phase or in the liquid phase
- a high sensitivity
- a high specificity similar to antigen / antibodies techniques
- a better stability than antigen / antibodies sensors
