A new electrochemical method for the identification and quantification of Fenamiphos pesticide's major metabolite in biological samples – Sulphoxide (FNX) was developed. Computational calculations, Density Functional Theory (DFT) semi-empirical models (PM3) were performed to determine best monomer, pyrrole, a ratio 1 : 5 (template: monomer) chosen fabrication FNX?MIP sensor obtained by electrop...

A precise and simple in-situ voltammetric measurement of promethazine, based on the nano sized molecularly imprinted polymer (nano-MIP) was introduced. The nano-MIP was synthesized utilizing vinyl benzene and Divinylbenzene as the functional monomer and cross-linker respectively, and via the micro-emulsion polymerization method in silicon oil. The MIP particles were then embedded in a carbon pa...

A thermo-sensitive imprinted polymer coating CdTe quantum dots was developed to prepare fluorescent thermo-sensitive protein-affinity materials, which exhibited high specific recognition ability towards target proteins.

Selective polymeric extractants were prepared for preconcentration of Cibacron reactive red dye, a dye that is often applied with Cibacron reactive blue and Cibacron reactive yellow for dyeing of fabrics. The best extractant was fabricated (in chloroform) using methacrylic acid (as monomer), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (as crosslinker), AIBN (as initiator for polymerization), and red dye as ...

The aim of this work was to investigate the possibility of employing Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) as a controlled release device for 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in biological fluids, especially gastrointestinal ones, compared to Non Imprinted Polymers (NIPs). MIPs were synthesized using methacrylic acid (MAA) as functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as crosslinking ag...

In the present study, molecularly imprinted polymers were synthesized using caffeic acid (CA) as a template molecule and then used for extraction of CA chlorogenic (CLA) from complex matrices. Syntheses carried out in tetrahydrofuran porogenic solvent 4-vinyl pyridine, methacrylic acid, acrylamide, 1-vinyl imidazole monomers, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate crosslinker 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitril...

Molecular imprinting of morphine and the endogenous neuropeptide [Leu5]enkephalin (Leu-enkephalin) in methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate copolymers is described. Such molecular imprints possess the capacity to mimic the binding activity of opioid receptors. The recognition properties ofthe resultant imprints were analyzed by radioactive ligand binding analysis. We demonstrate that ...
