Abstract: A housing for a rear view element of a rear view device for a vehicle includes a scalp portion comprising a first circumferential edge being c-shaped extending at least partially around an opening of the scalp portion, and a bezel comprising a second circumferential edge having a lip portion extending at least partially around the bezel. The c-shaped first circumferential edge of the scalp portion is configured to at least partly overlap the lip portion to obtain a flush surface at a separation edge which is located at least partly at an inside panel of the bezel.

Abstract: A method for preparing a molecularly imprinted polymer including the steps of dissolving a print molecule and monomer in an aqueous solution and dissolving a host polymer in an organic phase, preparing an emulsion of the aqueous and the organic phases, polymerizing the monomer to form a polymer composite with the host polymer along an interface between the organic phase and the aqueous phase, separating the polymer composite from the emulsion, and removing the print molecule from the composite, wherein the print molecule is a protein selected from trypsinogen, peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, and glucose oxidase. A preferred host polymer is polymethylmethacrylate and a preferred host monomer is pyrrole.

Abstract: A method for molecular imprinting polymers with large biomolecules. The imprinted polymer composite is made by the interfacial polymerization of a monomer in the presence of the print molecule and host polymer. Since polymerization occurs at the interface between an organic solvent and an aqueous solution, the print molecule can be disposed in the phase that allows the print molecule to remain in its native configuration. The choice of the host polymer and the monomer to be polymerized can be varied to enhance the specificity of the composite toward the biomolecule that is selected to be imprinted.
