Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), a type of biomimetic material, have attracted considerable interest owing to their cost-effectiveness, good physiochemical stability, favourable specificity and selectivity for target analytes, and widely used for various biological applications. It was demonstrated that MIPs with significant selectivity towards protein-based targets could be applied in medicine, diagnostics, proteomics, environmental analysis, sensors, various in vivo and/or in vitro applications, drug delivery systems, etc. This review provides an overview of MIPs dedicated to biomedical applications and insights into perspectives on the application of MIPs in newly emerging areas of biotechnology. Many different protocols applied for the synthesis of MIPs are overviewed in this review. The templates used for molecular imprinting vary from the minor glycosylated glycan-based structures, amino acids, and proteins to whole bacteria, which are also overviewed in this review. Economic, environmental, rapid preparation, stability, and reproducibility have been highlighted as significant advantages of MIPs. Particularly, some specialized MIPs, in addition to molecular recognition properties, can have high catalytic activity, which in some cases could be compared with other bio-catalytic systems. Therefore, such MIPs belong to the class of so-called 'artificial enzymes'. The discussion provided in this manuscript furnishes a comparative analysis of different approaches developed, underlining their relative advantages and disadvantages highlighting trends and possible future directions of MIP technology.

RSC Adv 2023; 13:29051-29060. [PMID: 37799303 PMCID: PMC10548503 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra04912d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
We report herein a fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymer (FMIP) for the solid-phase extraction (SPE) and fluorimetric determination of hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in water. The FMIP is based on fluorescent polystyrene nanoparticles embedded within a molecularly imprinted polyaniline (PANI) matrix. The operational adsorption parameters such as the initial HCTZ concentration, incubation time and the solution pH were found to influence the removal efficiency. At optimum conditions, a high adsorption capacity of the FMIP was found (2.08 mg g-1). Evidence of the adsorption process was confirmed by the change in the FMIP physicochemical properties measured by FTIR absorption spectroscopy and electron microscopy. Based on the regression R2 values and the consistently low values of the adsorption statistical error functions, equilibrium data were best fitted to both Freundlich and Temkin isotherms. Moreover, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model described the adsorption kinetics, and the mechanism of the adsorption process was explained by the intraparticle diffusion model. Upon studying adsorption thermodynamics, negative ΔG values (-26.18 kJ mol-1 at room temperature) were obtained revealing that the adsorption process is spontaneous. Interestingly, the maximum adsorption capacity was obtained at 298 K, pH 7.0, and using a high HCTZ concentration, thus revealing the suitability of the proposed FMIP for easy and fast SPE of HCTZ. The FMIP showed an imprinting factor of 1.19 implying the selectivity over the corresponding FNIP. Eventually, the proposed FMIP was successfully applied to the spectrofluorimetric determination of HCTZ in aqueous samples with %recovery values close to 100%.

Abstract
Peroxidase enzymes are crucial in analytical chemistry owing to significant peroxide analytes and their key role in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detection. Therefore, exploiting appropriate catalysts for the peroxidase like reactions has become crucial for achieving desired analytical performance. Zirconium (Zr) has attracted growing interest, as a safe and stable potential eco-friendly catalyst for various organic transformations that address increasing environmental challenges. Hence, aiming at fast, sensitive and selective optical detection of H2O2, a colorimetric platform is presented here, based on the excellent peroxidase enzyme-like activity of Zr decorated on graphene oxide (GO). The synergistic effect achieved due to intimate contact between an enzyme like Zr and the high surface area 0f GO ensures efficient electron transfer that increases the chemical and catalytic activity of the composite and advances the decomposition of H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals. The designed probe, thus, efficiently catalyzes the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), via hydroxyl radicals, thereby transforming the colorless TMB into blue oxidized TMB within 2 min. The catalytic mechanism of the Zr-GO enzyme mimic is proposed herein and verified using a fluorescent probe terephthalic acid (TA) and other scavenger experiments. The multifunctional optical probe allows sensitive and highly selective recognition of H2O2 in a linear range from 100 to 1000 µM with a low detection limit of 0.57 µM. Essentially, the direct accessibility of Zr prevents having to use the complicated preparation and purification procedures mostly practiced for conventional biozymes and nanozymes. The devised method offers several gains, including being green and an inexpensive catalyst, having lower LOD, being fast, cost-effective and sensitive, and having selective work-up procedures.

Abstract
Achievements in polymer chemistry enables to design artificial phase boundaries modified by imprints of selected molecules and some larger structures. These structures seem very useful for the design of new materials suitable for affinity chromatography and sensors. In this review, we are overviewing the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and the applicability of these MIPs in the design of affinity sensors. Such MIP-based layers or particles can be used as analyte-recognizing parts for sensors and in some cases they can replace very expensive compounds (e.g.: antibodies, receptors etc.), which are recognizing analyte. Many different polymers can be used for the formation of MIPs, but conducing polymers shows the most attractive capabilities for molecular-imprinting by various chemical compounds. Therefore, the application of conducting polymers (e.g.: polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), and ortho-phenylenediamine) seems very promising. Polypyrrole is one of the most suitable for the development of MIP-based structures with molecular imprints by analytes of various molecular weights. Overoxiation of polypyrrole enables to increase the selectivity of polypyrrole-based MIPs. Methods used for the synthesis of conducting polymer based MIPs are overviewed. Some methods, which are applied for the transduction of analytical signal, are discussed, and challenges and new trends in MIP-technology are foreseen.

Abstract
A tryptophan (Trp) sensor was investigated based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of a molecularly imprinted polymer on a lysozyme amyloid fibril (MIP-AF). The MIP-AF was composed of aniline as a monomer chemically polymerized in the presence of a Trp template molecule onto the AF surface. After extracting the template molecule, the MIP-AF had cavities with a high affinity for the Trp molecules. The obtained MIP-AF demonstrated rapid Trp adsorption and substantial binding capacity (50 µM mg−1). Trp determination was studied using non-Faradaic EIS by drop drying the MIP-AF on the working electrode of a screen-printed electrode. The MIP-AF provided a large linear range (10 pM–80 µM), a low detection limit (8 pM), and high selectivity for Trp determination. Furthermore, the proposed method also indicates that the MIP-AF can be used to determine Trp in real samples such as milk and cancer cell media.

Abstract
Rapid, selective, and cost-effective detection and determination of clinically relevant biomolecule analytes for a better understanding of biological and physiological functions are becoming increasingly prominent. In this regard, biosensors represent a powerful tool to meet these requirements. Recent decades have seen biosensors gaining popularity due to their ability to design sensor platforms that are selective to determine target analytes. Naturally generated receptor units have a high affinity for their targets, which provides the selectivity of a device. However, such receptors are subject to instability under harsh environmental conditions and have consequently low durability. By applying principles of supramolecular chemistry, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) can successfully replace natural receptors to circumvent these shortcomings. This review summarizes the recent achievements and analytical applications of electrosynthesized MIPs, in particular, for the detection of protein-based biomarkers. The scope of this review also includes the background behind electrochemical readouts and the origin of the gate effect in MIP-based biosensors.

Perfluorooctanesulfonic Acid Detection Using Molecularly Imprinted Polyaniline on a Paper Substrate. SENSORS 2020; 20:s20247301.

Abstract
Perfluorinated compounds like perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) are synthetic water pollutants and have accumulated in environments for decades, causing a serious global health issue. Conventional assays rely on liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy that are very expensive and complicated and thus limit the large-scale monitoring of PFOS in wastewater. To achieve low-cost and accurate detection of PFOS, we designed a paper-based sensor with molecularly imprinted polyaniline electrodes that have recognition sites specific to PFOS. The calibration curve of resistivity ratios as a function of PFOS concentrations has a linear range from 1 to 100 ppt with a coefficient of determination of 0.995. The estimated limit of detection is 1.02 ppt. We also investigated attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of the surface of the polyaniline (PANI) electrodes to propose the potential recognition sites in polyaniline matrix and the detection mechanism. This electrical paper sensor with low cost and excellent sensitivity and selectivity provides the potential for large-scale monitoring of wastewater.
