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...

In this paper, the novel surface molecularly imprinted polymers based on dendritic-grafting magnetic nanoparticles were developed to enrich and separate glibenclamide in health foods. The density functional theory method was used to give theoretical directions to the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers. The polymers were prepared by using magnetic nanoparticles as supporting materials, ...

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...

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are used as recognition elements in biochemical sensors. In a fluorescence-based MIP sensor system, it can be difficult to distinguish the analyte fluorescence from the fluorescence of the polymer itself. We studied steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of anthracene imprinted in a polymer (polyurethane) matrix. Vertically polarized excitation light was inci...

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...
