In this work, the template, monomer, and cross-linker with the ratio of 1:8:40 were used to synthesize Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) for extraction of the bioactive chemical compounds from some traditional herbs as a sorbent material. Quercetin, Methacrylic Acid (MAA), Trimethylolpropanetrimethacrylate (TRIM) and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) were used as a template, funct...

Many efforts have been made to produce artificial materials with biomimetic properties for applications in binding assays. Among these efforts, the technique of molecular imprinting has received much attention because of the high selectivity obtainable for molecules of interest, robustness of the produced polymers, simple and short synthesis, and excellent cost efficiency. In this review, progr...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The resistance in vectors to conventional insecticides warrants development of newer insecticides for mosquito control besides use of other counter-measures. The present study was undertaken to test the efficacy of a new and toxicologically safe organophosphorus compound, Reldan (chlorpyrifos-methyl) and compare its efficacy with Dursban (chlorphyrifos-ethyl) against lar...

Amongst organophosphate pesticides, the one most widely used and common environmental contaminant is diazinon; thus methods for its trace analysis in environmental samples must be developed. Use of diazinon imprinted polymers such as sorbents in solid phase extraction, is a prominent and novel application area of molecular imprinted polymers. For diazinon extraction, high performance liquid chr...

a simple ion imprinted amino-functionalized sorbent was synthesized by coupling activated carbon with iminodiacetic acid, a functional compound for metal chelating, through cyanoric chloride spacer. the resulting sorbent has been characterized using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (tga) and evaluated for the preconcentration and de...

Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a component of a coating material in can packaging and is known to leach out to the canned food. It is a known endocrine disruptor, carcinogen and mutagen hence detection and control of BPA should be a concern to protect the consumers. This study aims to develop a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for the molecular recognition of BPA. This paper presents the synthesis and...
