A glassy carbon electrode modified with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) containing phenacetin recognition sites is introduced. The phenacetin-selective MIP was synthesised based on the electropolymerisation of pyrrole in a 1:1 (v/v) water/ethanol with HClO4 solution. The MIP-modified electrode showed higher recognition ability in comparison with a bare electrode for procaine and aminopyri...

To fabricate molecularly imprinted polymer nanospheres via click reaction, five different clickable compounds were synthesized and two types of click reactions (azide-alkyne and thiol-yne) were explored. It was found that molecularly imprinted polymer nanospheres could be successfully synthesized via thiol-yne click reaction using 3,5-diethynyl-pyridine (1) as the monomer, tris(3-mercaptopropio...

Amoxicillin (AMX) is an antibiotic frequently used for the treatment of bacterial disorders and respiratory problems in both humans animals. This work aims to synthesize a molecularly imprinted superparamagnetic polymer (SP-MIP) with core-shell structure selective detection AMX real samples. Magnetite nanoparticles (SNP) were prepared by polyol method, coated silica, functionalized silane group...

Introduction: Molecular Imprinted Polymer (MIP) -based sensors are promising candidates for a variety of in-situ planetary astrobiological and geochemical mission profiles, and are currently being developed under NASA Grant #NNG05GM90G issued through the Astrobiology Science & Technology Instrument Development Program. MIP sensors are solid state, inherently small and low mass, and have low pow...

In recent years, molecularly-imprinted polymers (MIPs) have attracted the attention of several researchers due to their capability for molecular recognition, easiness of preparation, stability and cost-effective production. By taking advantage of these facts, Hg(II) imprinted and non-imprinted copolymers were prepared by polymerizing mercury nitrate stock solution (or without it) with methacryl...

This paper presents the preparation and absorption performance of iodixanol-imprinted polymers in aqueous and blood plasma media in vitro for biomedical applications. The imprinted polymers were prepared by non-covalent imprinting of iodixanol in a matrix of poly(4-vinylpyridine) crosslinked by ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The binding capacities (BCs) were investigated as a function of templ...
