Preparation of a novel molecularly imprinted polymer using a water-soluble crosslinking agent

Abstract

A molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared using a water-soluble crosslinking agent. An ionic complex was utilized as the assembly for the template molecule and the functional monomer, and water as porogenic solvent during preparation of the imprinted polymer. The results of chromatographic evaluations for the prepared polymer suggested that the polymer had much lower hydrophobicity compared with usual octadecyl group bonded silica or the usual molecular imprinted polymer prepared from ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate, and the selective recognition ability for template molecule in the completely aqueous condition.

Synthesis of nicotinamide-imprinted polymers and their binding performances in organic and aqueous media

“…Many attempts have been made to optimize the imprinting parameters in order to obtain MIPs with water compatibility [21][22][23][24][25][26]. These include careful selection of appropriate type and ratio of monomers, cross-linkers and porogens [27].…”

Recanalization of chronic occlusions of the superficial femoral artery using the outback™ re‐entry catheter: A single centre experience

“…In this study, we describe the fundamental properties (physical appearance, hydrophilicity, porous structure) of a novel polymer monolith prepared from the water‐soluble crosslinking agent by the contact angle of water, SEM, and SPM. Previously, we reported about the molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) prepared with the water‐soluble crosslinking agent and water15 and the MIPs showed high hydrophilicity. In this time, two kinds of poly(ethylene glycol)‐diacrylate‐based monomers were utilized as the water‐soluble crosslinking agents (shown in Fig.…”

Selective Adsorption of Water-soluble Ionic Compounds by an Interval Immobilization Technique Based on Molecular Imprinting

“…Therefore, to overcome this difficulty, we used the interval immobilization technique in our previous studies. [6][7][8] However, this method could neither decrease the high selectivity of a material nor enhance the recognition capability of occlusive recognition sites, which are drawbacks of the MI technique. In this note, we present a novel technique based on the interval immobilization technique which provides a material with the ability of high selective recognition in the absence of occlusive sites.…”
