A simple, convenient and high selective miniaturized molecularly imprinted matrix solid-phase dispersion (mini-MI-MSPD) technique using l-tryptophan-imprinted polymers as sorbents was proposed for simultaneous extraction of four auxins (indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), indole-3-propionic acid (IPA), indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA)) from orange samples coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection. The molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) synthesized using l-tryptophan as dummy template showed high affinity and selectivity to auxins, and so they were applied as the specific dispersant of MSPD to simultaneously eliminate the effect of template leakage on quantitative analysis. Under the optimized conditions, good linearity was obtained in a range of 0.02-2.00 μg g(-1) and the average recoveries of four auxins at three spiked levels ranged from 87.6% to 104.5% with the relative standard deviation (RSD) ≤4.4%. The presented mini-MI-MSPD method combined the advantages of MSPD for allowing the extraction, dispersion and homogenization in a single step and the advantages of MIPs for high affinity and selectivity towards four auxins, which could be applied to the determination of auxins in complicated vegetal samples.

Designing single-template molecularly imprinted chiral sensors for the enantioselective recognition of various chiral amino acids (AAs) is of great importance for chiral analysis. Here, a dummy template-based chiral sensor is developed by using l-alanine (l-Ala) as the dummy template and poly(-phenylenediamine) as the imprinting layer, which can be used for the enantioselective recognition of various chiral AAs such as Ala, tryptophan (Trp), tyrosine (Tyr), cysteine (Cys), and arginine (Arg). Compared with conventional single-template molecularly imprinted chiral sensors, the designed single-template chiral sensor shows great universality for the recognition of chiral AAs since all chiral AAs possess an Ala-analogous segment.

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are typically synthesized in organic solvents, leading to poor compatibility with water, weak affinity and selectivity for target molecules in aqueous media. To address these challenges, a green and sustainable synthesis of sandwich bread-like ATP@MIP was conducted using polyethylenimide (PEI) and deep eutectic solvent (DES) as hydrophilic bi-functional monomers via layer-by-layer self-assembly on the attapulgite (ATP) carrier. The new ATP@MIP can provide a higher density of imprinting sites with more orderly and uniform distribution due to inhibiting the competitive polymerization between PEI and DES, thereby significantly enhancing recognition ability.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is the leading cause of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease development. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-mimic system for sensitive and specific oxLDL determination was developed using selective aptamer-molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles (AP-MIP NP) coupled with an immunology-based colorimetric assay. The AP-MIP NP were synthesized using solid-phase molecular imprinting by incorporating aptamers into the MIP NP cavities.

The sensitive Bisphenol A (BPA) detection by an electrochemical sensor based on gold nanoparticle-doped molecularly imprinted polymer was successfully improved. This study describes the development of a method for BPA detection in both aqueous solution and real water samples using N-methacroyl-(L)-cysteine methyl ester and N-methacryloyl-(L)-phenylalanine methyl ester coated pencil graphite electrodes modified with AuNPs by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Importantly, AuNPs, which increase the electroactivity, were used to increase the surface area of a BPA-imprinted pencil graphite electrode (MIP PGE) sensor.
