Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and aptamers (Apts) are widely used in substance detection due to their specific recognition abilities. However, both of them have limitations in terms of stability or sensitivity. Therefore, an increasingly employed strategy is to combine MIPs and aptamers to form mixed components for detecting various substances, such as viruses, bacteria, proteins, heavy-metal ions, and hormones. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary of the scientific research conducted on the construction and application of aptamer–MIP multiple-recognition components in the past five years. It also aims to analyze their research and development strategies, construction mechanisms, advantages, and potential applications, as well as limitations and current challenges that need to be addressed.
