Abstract: Mass is the intrinsic quality of every substance and therefore is an inherently highly interesting target for chemical sensing. Quartz crystal microbalances (QCMs) address this parameter. They bear the capacity of detecting mass variations until the nanogram level. Molecular imprinting on the other hand provides a facile, straightforward method of fabricating template-driven and tunable polymeric artificial receptors ensuring the necessary selectivity. This chapter summarizes different imprinting strategies, including covalent, noncovalent, and semicovalent methods. Furthermore, our focus is on discussing recent developments and trends in generating such novel materials, for example, imprinted thin films, nanoparticles, and synthetic receptors for bioanalytes, which are reported until the date from diverse fields using QCM transducers
