Preparation of Thermosensitive Hollow Imprinted Microspheres via Combining Distillation Precipitation Polymerization and Thiol‐ene Click Chemistry

Hollow molecular imprinted polymer microspheres were prepared by distillation precipitation polymerization with (S)‐(+)‐ibuprofen (S‐IBF) as template molecule and acrylamide (AM) as functional monomer. Using the silicon dioxide (SiO₂, 180 nm) modified by 3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (MPS) as the template microspheres, the molecular imprinted shells were coated on successfully (SiO₂@MIPs). The thermosensitive SiO₂@MIPs‐PNIPAM core‐shell microspheres were subsequently prepared by grafting the PNIPAM chains (M_n=1.21×10⁴ g/mol, polydispersity index=1.30), which were prepared by reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, on the surface of SiO₂@MIPs microspheres via the thiol‐ene click chemistry. The grafting density of PNIPAM brushes on the SiO₂@MIPs microspheres was about 0.18 chains/nm². After HF etching, the hollow imprinted microspheres were finally obtained. For thermosensitivity analysis, the phase transition temperatures of multifunctional nanoparticles were measured by DSL at 25°C and 45°C respectively, and the sizes of the microspheres changed by about 35 nm. The modified microspheres presented excellent controlled release property to S‐IBF, moreover about half amount of the adsorptions passed into acetonitrile‐water solution through the specific holes of imprinted shell at 25°C under vibration.

In Vivo Imaging of Glycol Chitosan‐Based Nanogel Biodistribution

The preclinical development of nanomedicines raises several challenges and requires a comprehensive characterization. Among them is the evaluation of the biodistribution following systemic administration. In previous work, the biocompatibility and in vitro targeting ability of a glycol chitosan (GC) based nanogel have been validated. In the present study, its biodistribution in the mice is assessed, using near‐infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging as a tool to track the nanogel over time, after intravenous administration. Rapid whole body biodistribution of both Cy5.5 labeled GC nanogel and free polymer is found at early times. It remains widespreadly distributed in the body at least up to 6 h postinjection and its concentration then decreases drastically after 24 h. Nanogel blood circulation half‐life lies around 2 h with the free linear GC polymer presenting lower blood clearance rate. After 24 h, the blood NIR fluorescence intensity associated with both samples decreases to insignificant values. NIR imaging of the organs shows that the nanogel had a body clearance time of ≈48 h, because at this time point a weak signal of NIR fluorescence is observed only in the kidneys. Hereupon it can be concluded that the engineered GC nanogel has a fairly long blood circulation time, suitable for biomedical applications, namely, drug delivery, simultaneously allowing efficient and quick body clearance.

Determination of Parathion‐methyl in Vegetables by Fluorescent‐Labeled Molecular Imprinted Polymer

A novel sensor for the determination of parathion‐methyl based on couple grafting of functional molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) was fabricated which is developed by anchoring the MIP layer on surfaces of silica particles embedded CdSe quantum dots by surface imprinting technology. The synthesized molecular imprinted silica nanospheres (CdSe@SiO₂@MIP) allow a high selectivity and sensitivity of parathion‐methyl via fluorescence intensity decreasing when the MIP material rebinding the parathion‐methyl molecule. Compared with the MIP fabricated in traditional method, the template of parathion‐methyl was easier to remove from the CdSe@SiO₂@MIP imprinted material. Under optimal conditions, the fluorescence intensity of parathion‐methyl at the imprinted sensor was detected by spectrofluorophotometer. The relative fluorescence intensity of CdSe@SiO₂@MIP decreased linearly with the increasing concentration of parathion‐methyl ranging from 0.013 mg·kg⁻¹ to 2.63 mg·kg⁻¹ with a detection limit (3δ) of 0.004 mg·kg⁻¹ (S/N=3), which is lower than the MIP in tradition. The imprinted film sensor was applied to detect parathion‐methyl in vegetable samples without the interference of other organophosphate pesticides and showed a prosperous application in the field of food safety.

A selective molecular imprinting-chemiluminescence method was developed for the determination of norfloxacin by using a norfloxacin-imprinted polymer as recognition material and the Ce(IV)-sodium sulfite-norfloxacin chemiluminescence reaction as the detection system. The chemiluminescence intensity responded linearly to the concentration of norfloxacin within 1.0×10^–71.0×10^–5molL^–1 with a detection limit of 3×10^–8molL^–1. The relative standard deviation for 5.0×10^–7molL^–1 norfloxacin solution was 2.4% (n = 7). This method was applied to the determination of norfloxacin in urine samples, and the results obtained were satisfactory.     

Molecularly Imprinted Polymer for Solid‐Phase Extraction of Ecteinascidin 743 from Sea Squirt

Ecteinascidin 743 from sea squirt is one of the most original anti‐tumoral activity compounds, as proven by the Natural Cancer Institute. Ecteinascidin 743 could be obtained with traditional liquid extraction, but it should be purified and separated from the extract. A molecularly imprinted solid‐phase extraction procedure was developed for the selective separation. Ecteinascidin 743 was used as the template and the polymer was synthesized in a methanol environment. Water and n‐hexane as the washing solvents can eliminate most of the interference. Good linearity and low relative standard deviations (less than 4.39%) justify its continuing development.

Fabrication of the Enzyme‐less Voltammetric Bilirubin Sensor Based on Sol‐gel Imprinted Polymer

Measuring the serum bilirubin (BR) level is part of the common test for newborns, since high concentrations of bilirubin in the blood can cause brain damage and even death for them. Therefore, achieving a fast, accurate and cost effective method for bilirubin assay in medical diagnosis and Medical management of patients with jaundice, especially neonates, is very important. In this study, an electrochemical sensor was developed to detect low amounts of bilirubin in serum samples. The basis of the work is the BR imprinted polymer synthesis and the use of this polymer as a recognition element in the production of the bilirubin voltammetric sensor. For this purpose, bilirubin imprinted polymer was synthesized using the simple sol gel method and the prepared polymer is characterized by SEM and FT‐IR. In the next step, this polymer was applied to modify the carbon paste electrode and provide a sensitive and selective sensor for the BR molecule. The proposed sensor was able to measure the bilirubin in the concentration range of 1 to 100 μM after optimizing the operating conditions. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) was calculated 0.75 μM and 2.5 μM respectively. It is also applicable to bilirubin assay in serum samples.     

Determination of Melamine Using Magnetic Molecular Imprinted Polymers and High Performance Liquid Chromatography

A novel method using magnetic molecular imprinting polymers (MMIP) specific for recognizing, separating, and extracting melamine in bovine milk was developed with an external additive magnetic shelf in this paper. The MMIP was synthesized with Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and molecular imprinted polymer synthesis technology. With the help of an elution step using methanol/acetic acid mixture elution, the melamine could be collected and concentrated. By using high performance liquid chromatography combined with this pretreatment technique, the analytes eluted from the magnetic polymers can be determined. This extraction method was validated by analysis of incurred bovine milk matrix. The proposed method simplified the procedures of classical solid-phase extraction method and improved the reliability of method. The obtained recoveries of this method were in the range of 85.04–105.2% in spiked milk samples. The limit of detection (LOD) was below 29.2 ng g^?1.
