AbstractThis work presents the study on the recognition and absorption of the water-soluble X-ray contrast medium iodixanol in aqueous solution using synthetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). A non-covalent imprinting technique was applied to prepare iodixanol-imprinted polymers using 4-vinylpyridine as the functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linker. The effects of quantity of iodixanol templates, the crosslink density, and the solvent were studied in terms of the binding capacity and imprint effect of the polymers. UV-vis spectrometric analysis shows that the highest binding capacity achieved is 284 mg iodixanol per gram of dry polymer, which is 8.8 times higher than the binding capacity of the non-imprinted control polymers (NIPs). SEM and BET surface analysis have also been performed to investigate the effect of morphology and porosity on the binding capacities of polymers.

Molecularly imprinted polymers have emerged as cost-effective and rugged artificial selective sorbents for combination with different sensors. In this study, quaternary ammonium cations, as functional monomers, were systematically evaluated to design imprinted polymers for glyphosate as an important model compound for electrically charged and highly water-soluble chemical compounds. To this aim, a small pool of monomers were used including (3-acrylamidopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride, [2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride, and diallyldimethylammonium chloride. The simultaneous interactions between three positively charged monomers and glyphosate were preliminary evaluated using statistical design of the experiment method. Afterwards, different polymers were synthesized at the gold surface of the quartz crystal microbalance sensor using optimized and not optimized glyphosate-monomers ratios. All synthesized polymers were characterized using atomic force microscopy, contact angle, Fourier-transform infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Evaluated functional monomers showed promise as highly efficient functional monomers, when they are used together and at the optimized ratio, as predicted by the statistical method. Obtained results from the modified sensors were used to develop a simple model describing the binding characteristics at the surface of the different synthesized polymers. This model helps to develop new synthesis strategies for rational design of the highly selective imprinted polymers and to use as a sensing platform for water soluble and polar targets.

Molecular imprinting is a technique to prepare polymers with predetermined selectivity, specific recognition and predesigned affinity to a desired molecule. The stability and low cost of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) render them attractive for a broad range of applications. Currently, MIP technique has been widely used in chiral separation. In this study, a series of molecularly imprinted polymers for N-Carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophan (N-Cbz-L-Trp) synthesized in different conditions were prepared in a small scale to simulate the monolithic chiral stationary phases (CSPs) primarily. By coupling in situ processing and batch rebinding evaluation, the type of functional monomers, which likely to affect the chiral selectivity of MIPs, was investigated. It was found that a MIP comprising a mixture of functional monomer 4-vinylpyridine (4-VP) and porogen 1-dodecanol/toluene exhibited the highest binding capacity and chiral selectivity for N-Carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophan. Thereafter, the monolithic MIP synthesized in screened optimum condition is used as chiral stationary phase in HPLC, which shows favourable separating capacity.

AbstractTo obtain molecularly imprinted polymers capable of selective rebinding with nicotinamide (NAM), NAM imprinted polymers were synthesized via bulk polymerization using various functional monomers and cross-linkers. The NAM recognition properties of these polymers were investigated in organic and aqueous solvents by equilibrium rebinding experiments. The results show that the imprinted polymer prepared using 1:4:4 molar ratio of NAM/MAA/TRIM in dichloromethane exhibited the greatest NAM binding capacity and selectivity. This polymer is potentially valuable for the analysis of NAM in complex matrices where selective isolation and identification are needed.
