Abstract
gamma-radiation was used to synthesise molecularly imprinted poly (2-h ydroxy ethyl methacrylate) containing memory sites for testosterone. T he high degree of selectivity of the polymer towards testosterone has been demonstrated by studying the interaction of the polymer with a mi xture of testosterone and cholesterol, a molecule with a similar ring structure and shape as testosterone.
