Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for creatinine were prepared by modified precipitation polymerization using methacrylic acid as a functional monomer and divinylbenzene as a crosslinker. The prepared MIPs were monodispersed with a narrow particle size distribution. Binding experiments and Scatchard analyses revealed that two classes of binding sites, high- and low-affinity sites, were formed on the MIPs.

Magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (M-MIPs) for bisphenol A (BPA) and its structural analogues have been prepared by a multi-step swelling and polymerization method using uniformly-sized magnetic particles as a shape template. Binding experiments and Scatchard analyses revealed that two classes of binding sites were formed on M-MIP(BPA). The retention and molecular-recognition properties of M-MIPs for BPA and its structural analogues were evaluated using a mixture of phosphate buffer and acetonitrile or a mixture of water and acetonitrile as a mobile phase by LC.

Matrine (MT)- and oxymatrine (OMT)-imprinted monodisperse polymers have been prepared by precipitation polymerization. The prepared molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for MT and OMT, MIP(MT) and MIP(OMT), were monodispersed microspheres of 3.3 and 3.

A monodispersed molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for creatinine was prepared by modified precipitation polymerization. The retention and molecular-recognition properties of the prepared MIP were evaluated by the hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode using a mixture of ammonium acetate buffer and acetonitrile as a mobile phase in liquid chromatography. The MIP had a specific recognition ability for creatinine, while other structurally related compounds, such as hydantoin, 1-methylhydantoin, 2-pyrrolidone, N-hydroxysuccinimide and creatine, could not be recognized on the MIP.
