García Y, Aguilar J, Polania L, Duarte Y, Sellergren B, Jiménez VA. Rational Design and Evaluation of Photoactive Molecularly Imprinted Nanoparticles for Tetracycline Degradation Under Visible Light. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:33140-33152. [PMID: 39100280 PMCID: PMC11292816 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c04550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
This work presents the use of photoactive molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MINs) to promote antibiotic degradation under visible light irradiation. Prototype MINs for the model antibiotic tetracycline (TC) were developed using molecular dynamics simulations to predict the TC-binding capacity of seven pre-polymerization mixtures. The studied formulations contained varying proportions of functional monomers with diverse physicochemical profiles, namely N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), N-tert-butylacrylamide (TBAM), acrylic acid (AA), and (N-(3-aminopropyl)methacrylamide hydrochloride) (APMA) and a constant ratio of the cross-linker N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide (BIS). Two monomer formulations showed markedly higher TC-binding capacities based on template-monomer interaction energies. These mixtures were used to synthesize photoactive MINs by high-dilution radical polymerization, followed by the EDC/NHS conjugation with the organic photosensitizer toluidine blue. MINs showed higher TC-binding capacities than non-imprinted nanoparticles (nINs) of identical composition. MINs and nINs exhibited photodynamic activity under visible light irradiation, as confirmed by singlet oxygen generation experiments. TC degradation was evaluated in 50 μmol L-1 solutions placed in microplate wells containing immobilized nanoparticles and irradiated with white LED light (150 W m-2) for 1 h at room temperature. Degradation followed pseudo-zero-order kinetics with accelerated profiles in MIN-containing wells. Our findings suggest a key role of molecularly imprinted cavities in bringing TC closer to the photosensitizing moieties, minimizing the loss of oxidative potential due to reactive oxygen species diffusion. This degradation strategy can potentially extend to any organic pollutants for which MINs can be synthesized and opens valuable opportunities for exploring novel applications for molecularly imprinted materials.

Abstract
In the present study, a magnetic ion-imprinted polymer based on n-allylthiourea in the presence of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (MIIP-PAN) was synthesized, characterized, and applied in the preconcentration of nickel ions by dispersive magnetic solid phase extraction (DMSPE) with FAAS detection. For comparison, non-imprinted polymer (MNIP-PAN) and imprinted polymer without PAN were synthesized. The characterization of the polymers was performed by FT-IR, DRX, TEM, TGA, VSM, and BET. Selectivity studies were performed comparing the competitive adsorption of Ni2+ with other cations on MIIP-PAN and MNIP-PAN, achieving higher relative selectivity coefficients for MIIP-PAN than for MNIP-PAN and NIP. Under optimized conditions, the method provided a preconcentration factor of 76.70, detection limit of 0.25 µg/L and intra-day (2.06 - 2.33 %) and inter-day (1.82 - 4.90 %) precision. The developed method was applied to samples of water, teas, and chocolate powder, and its precision was evaluated through tests of recovery and analysis of certified materials.

Abstract
A carbon dot (CD) was prepared by o-phenylenediamine and water, which showed bright yellow fluorescence under ultraviolet light irradiation (λ = 580 nm), and verified good fluorescence quenching effect on penicillin G sodium (Png-Na). Using methacrylic acid as a functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a crosslinker, and Png-Na as a template, a kind of composite microsphere combining CD and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized by surface-initiated atomic transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). For reasons of comparison, we also prepared MIP without CD and non-imprinted polymers (NIPs). Through static and dynamic adsorption experiments, the maximum adsorption capacity was 47.05 mg g-1 and the equilibrium time was 30 min. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was utilized to determine the content of Png-Na in the spiked milk samples. A sensitive, rapid, and simple method for determination of Png-Na in food samples was developed. The utilized approach enabled the quantification of Png-Na within the concentration range 20-1000 μg L-1 (with a limit of detection of 5 μg L-1). The recoveries achieved were in the range 93.3-98.2%, with a relative standard deviation of 1.2-4.2%. The results demonstrated that CD@MIP possessed the capability of specific adsorption and fluorescence detection of Png-Na, enabling simultaneous detection and enrichment of Png-Na in real samples.

Development and Characterization of a Molecularly Imprinted Polymer for the Selective Removal of Brilliant Green Textile Dye from River and Textile Industry Effluents. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:3709.

Abstract
In this paper, we present an alternative technique for the removal of Brilliant Green dye (BG) in aqueous solutions based on the application of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as a selective adsorbent for BG. The MIP was prepared by bulk radical polymerization using BG as the template; methacrylic acid (MAA) as the functional monomer, selected via computer simulations; ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as cross-linker; and 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) (AIBN) as the radical initiator. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses of the MIP and non-molecularly imprinted polymer (NIP)-used as the control material-showed that the two polymers exhibited similar morphology in terms of shape and size; however, N2 sorption studies showed that the MIP displayed a much higher BET surface (three times bigger) compared to the NIP, which is clearly indicative of the adequate formation of porosity in the former. The data obtained from FTIR analysis indicated the successful formation of imprinted polymer based on the experimental procedure applied. Kinetic adsorption studies revealed that the data fitted quite well with a pseudo-second order kinetic model. The BG adsorption isotherm was effectively described by the Langmuir isotherm model. The proposed MIP exhibited high selectivity toward BG in the presence of other interfering dyes due to the presence of specific recognition sites (IF = 2.53) on its high specific surface area (112 m2/g). The imprinted polymer also displayed a great potential when applied for the selective removal of BG in real river water samples, with recovery ranging from 99 to 101%.

Recent Advances in Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for Antibiotic Analysis. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 28:molecules28010335. [PMID: 36615529 PMCID: PMC9822428 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28010335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
The abuse and residues of antibiotics have a great impact on the environment and organisms, and their determination has become very important. Due to their low contents, varieties and complex matrices, effective recognition, separation and enrichment are usually required prior to determination. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), a kind of highly selective polymer prepared via molecular imprinting technology (MIT), are used widely in the analytical detection of antibiotics, as adsorbents of solid-phase extraction (SPE) and as recognition elements of sensors. Herein, recent advances in MIPs for antibiotic residue analysis are reviewed. Firstly, several new preparation techniques of MIPs for detecting antibiotics are briefly introduced, including surface imprinting, nanoimprinting, living/controlled radical polymerization, and multi-template imprinting, multi-functional monomer imprinting and dummy template imprinting. Secondly, several SPE modes based on MIPs are summarized, namely packed SPE, magnetic SPE, dispersive SPE, matrix solid-phase dispersive extraction, solid-phase microextraction, stir-bar sorptive extraction and pipette-tip SPE. Thirdly, the basic principles of MIP-based sensors and three sensing modes, including electrochemical sensing, optical sensing and mass sensing, are also outlined. Fourthly, the research progress on molecularly imprinted SPEs (MISPEs) and MIP-based electrochemical/optical/mass sensors for the detection of various antibiotic residues in environmental and food samples since 2018 are comprehensively reviewed, including sulfonamides, quinolones, β-lactams and so on. Finally, the preparation and application prospects of MIPs for detecting antibiotics are outlined.

Abstract
This work describes a novel technique for the direct quantification of Acid Green 16 (AG16) adsorbed on a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) through the application of diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry (DRS) directly in a solid material. The MIP was synthesized by a bulk method using 1-vinylimidazole as the functional monomer. To conduct DRS analysis, adsorption assays were performed through the application of the MIP in a solution containing different concentrations of AG16 for 120 minutes; subsequently, the MIP was left to dry and a certain quantity of the polymer was analyzed. Under optimized conditions, a linear concentration range of 1.0 μmol L-1 to 10.0 μmol L-1 and limits of detection and quantification of 0.3 μmol L-1 and 1.0 μmol L-1, respectively, were obtained. The repeatability and reproducibility of the method were evaluated and RSD values lower than 4% were obtained. Selectivity studies allowed finding imprinting factor values of 1.9, 2.6, 1.1, and 1.1 for AG16, Direct yellow 50, Acid Blue 1, and Brilliant Green, respectively. The proposed method was applied toward the analysis of river water and textile industry effluents. The advantage and novelty of the technique lie in the fact that the amount of the analyte adsorbed on the selective polymer is directly measured on the solid material for AG16 and not indirectly via the remaining solution as it has always been carried out in previous studies reported in the literature. The findings show that the proposed technique is relatively simple, novel and highly versatile for the quantification of analytes adsorbed on MIPs, as well as for the analysis of the material of interest and quantification of diverse analytes in different matrices.

Abstract
The detection of pollutant traces in the public water supply and aquifers is essential for the safety of the population. In this article, we demonstrate that a simple electrochemical procedure in acidic solution can be employed for enhancing the sensitivity of flexible screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPEs) to detect bisphenol-A (BPA), hydroquinone, and catechol, simultaneously. The SPEs were pretreated electrochemically in a H2SO4 solution, which did not affect their morphology, yielding high current signals with well separated oxidation peaks. The sensitivity values were 0.28, 0.230, and 0.056 µA L µmol−1 with detection limits of 0.12, 0.82, and 0.95 µmol L−1 for hydroquinone, catechol, and BPA, respectively. The sensors were reproducible and selective for detecting BPA in plastic cups, and with adequate specificity not to be affected by interferents from water samples. The simple, inexpensive, and flexible SPE may thus be used to detect emerging pollutants and monitor the water quality.

Abstract
Antibiotics, although being amazing compounds, need to be monitored in the environment and foodstuff. This is primarily to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance that may make them ineffective. Unsurprisingly, advances in analyticalsciences that can improve their determination are appreciated. Electrochemical techniques are known for their simplicity, sensitivity, portability and low-cost; however, they are often not selective enough without recurring to a discriminating element like an antibody. Molecular imprinting technology aims to create artificial tissues mimicking antibodies named molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), these retain the advantages of selectivity but without the typical disadvantages of biological material, like limited shelf-life and high cost. This manuscript aims to review all analytical methodologies for antibiotics, using MIPs, where the detection technique is electrochemical, like differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), square-wave voltammetry (SWV) or electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). MIPs developed by electropolymerization (e-MIPs) were applied in about 60 publications and patents found in the bibliographic search, while MIPs developed by other polymerization techniques, like temperature assisted ("bulk") or photopolymerization, were limited to around 40. Published works covered the electroanalysis of a wide range of different antibiotics (β-lactams, tetracyclines, quinolones, macrolides, aminoglycosides, among other), in a wide range of matrices (food, environmental and biological).

Abstract
The design, preparation process, binding abilities, morphological characteristic and prospective field of application of dummy-template magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (DMMIP) for preliminary recognition of the selected low-mass polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE-47 and PBDE-99) from aquatic environment were investigated. The surface of iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanopowder (50-100 nm particles size) was modified with tetraethoxysilane and next prepared Fe3O4@SiO2 particles were dispersed in anhydrous toluene functionalized by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane. Finally, MIPs' thin film layer on the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2 was formed in acetonitrile as a solvent solution, using ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linker, building monomer, 1,1'-Azobis(cyclohexanecarbonitrile) as the radical initiator, methacrylic acid as a functional monomer and 4,4'-Dihydroxydiphenyl ether as the dummy template molecule as a structural analogue of low-mass PBDEs. To characterize the chemical structure of prepared DMMIPs, the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis was performed. The specific surface area of the developed sorbent was estimated using Brauner-Emmet-Teller nitrogen adsorption/desorption analysis. To assess the average pore sizes, pore diameters and pore volumes of the prepared sorbent, the Barret-Joyner-Halenda technique was applied. The average values of imprinting factor for PBDE-47 and PBDE-99 were 11.3 ± 1.6 and 13.7 ± 1.2, respectively. The average value of recovery of PBDE-47 and PBDE-99 for developed DMMIPs from modelling water: methanol solution were 85.4 ± 6.7% and 86.4 ± 9.4%, respectively. In a case of spiked distilled water, tap water as well as local river water the calculated recovery values ranged from 65%% up to 82% and from 33% up to 76% for PBDE-47 and PBDE-99, respectively. Following the preliminary research on selected water samples, the proposed combination of imprinting technology and core-shell materials with magnetic properties might be considered as a promising sorption tool used for targeted recognition of low-mass PBDEs in aquatic solutions.

Abstract
We aimed to develop a molecularly imprinted polymeric systems with using penicillin G as a template molecule for removal of the antibiotic residues from environmental samples. Firstly, Pen-G-imprinted poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-L-alanine) [p(HEMA-MAAL)] nanopolymers were synthesized by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization method. Then, template molecule (Pen-G) was extracted from nanopolymers. Synthesized nanopolymers were characterized by different methods such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental and zeta-size analysis, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and surface area calculations. Nanopolymers have 60.38 nm average size and 1034.22 m2/g specific surface area. System parameters on Pen-G adsorption onto Pen-G imprint nanopolymers were investigated at different conditions. The specific adsorption value (Qmax) of molecularly impirinted p(HEMA-MAAL) nanopolymers was found 71.91 g/g for Pen-G in 5 mg/mL Pen-G initial concentration. Pen-G adsorption of molecularly imprinted nanopolymers was 15 times more than non-imprinted polymer. It is shown that obtained p(HEMA-MAAL) nanopolymer was a reuseable product which protected its adsorption capacity of 98.9% after 5th adsorption-desorption cycle. In conclusion, we suggest a method to develop a nanostructure, selective, low-cost molecularly imprinted polymeric systems with using penicillin G as a template molecule for removal of the antibiotic residues.
