  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007527",
  "term": "Molecularly imprinted polymer sorbent",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A polymeric material engineered with specific recognition sites that are complementary in shape, size, and chemical functionality to a target molecule. These sorbents are created by polymerizing monomers around a template molecule, which is subsequently removed. They are used for selective binding and separation in techniques like solid-phase extraction.",
