Abstract
Food allergy can lead to severe allergic reactions that are potentially fatal for human, hence the detection of food allergens such as ovalbumin (OVA) is important. In this study, a poly(caffeic acid)-coated epitope molecularly imprinted polymer (EMIP) was prepared by chelation and autoxidation of caffeic acid with hexamethylenediamine. EMIP has not only imprinted cavities highly matched with OVA in size and spatial structure, but also externally abundant hydrophilic groups, resulting in few non-specific binding and good hydrophilicity. With high specificity, significant paramagnetism, and great reusability, EMIP can distinguish OVA from other proteins and selectively enrich OVA in egg white samples, which opens up a promising route to the determination of allergens in food products.

Abstract
The separation of proteins in biological samples plays an essential role in the development of disease detection, drug discovery, and biological analysis. Protein imprinted polymers (PIPs) serve as a tool to capture target proteins specifically and selectively from complex media for separation purposes. Whereas conventional molecularly imprinted polymer is time-consuming in terms of incubation studies and solvent removal, magnetic particles are introduced using their magnetic properties for sedimentation and separation, resulting in saving extraction and centrifugation steps. Magnetic protein imprinted polymers (MPIPs), which combine molecularly imprinting materials with magnetic properties, have emerged as a new area of research hotspot. This review provides an overview of MPIPs for proteins, including synthesis, preparation strategies, and applications. Moreover, it also looks forward to the future directions for research in this emerging field.

Synthesis of micron-sized magnetic agarose beads chelated with nickel ions towards the affinity-based separation of histidine-tagged/rich proteins. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1708:464365.

Abstract
Developing high-performance magnetic particles for the effective separation and purification of target proteins has become an important topic in the area of biomedical research. In this work, a simple and novel strategy was proposed for fabricating magnetic Fe3O4@agarose-iminodiacetic acid-Ni microspheres (MAIN), which can efficiently and selectively isolate histidine-tagged/rich proteins (His-proteins). Based on the thermoreversible sol-gel transition of agarose, basic magnetic agarose microspheres were prepared through the inverse emulsion method, in which the emulsion contained agarose and amine-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The size of the emulsion was controlled by the emulsification of a high-speed shear machine, which improved the specific surface area of MAIN. Subsequently, the amine-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles were covalently crosslinked with agarose through epichlorohydrin, which could avoid leakage of the magnetic source during use and increase the stability of MAIN. The microsized MAIN exhibited a clearly visible spherical core-shell structure with a diameter range from 3.4 μm to 9.8 μm, and excellent suspension ability in aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacity of MAIN for histidine-rich bovine hemoglobin was 1069.2 mg g-1 at 35 °C, which was higher than those of commercialized and most reported magnetic agarose microspheres/nanoparticles. The MAIN showed excellent adsorption ability and selectivity toward His-proteins in a mixture of histidine-rich bovine serum albumin (BSA) and histidine-poor lysozyme (LYZ). When the amount of LYZ was 5-fold higher than that of BSA, the recovery of BSA reached 75.0%. To prove its practicability, MAIN was successfully employed for the enrichment of histidine-tagged RSV-F0 from the cell culture medium supernatant. According to the optimized conditions, MAIN could enrich approximately 0.1 mg of RSV-F0 from 1 mL of complex biological sample. Therefore, we believe that the novel MAIN could be applicable for efficient separation and purification of His-proteins from complex biological systems.

Abstract
An eco-friendly magnetic dual-dummy-template molecularly imprinted polymer (MDDMIP) was prepared by a "one-pot" green synthesis using mixed-valence iron hydroxide as the magnetic material, a deep eutectic solvent as the coporogen, and caffeic acid and glutamic acid as binary monomers. The adsorption properties toward organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) were investigated. High adsorption capacities (269.65-304.93 mg g-1), quick adsorption times (20 s), and high imprinting factors (2.28-3.83) were obtained. The proposed MDDMIP was utilized for magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) of OPPs prior to quantification by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The developed method exhibited outstanding linearity (0.05-500 μg L-1), low detection limits (0.003-0.015 μg L-1), and excellent enrichment factors (940-1310 folds). The MSPE-HPLC method was successfully applied for the detection of OPPs in vegetable, fruit, and grain samples with acceptable recoveries (80-119%). This method is a good potential method for the analysis of pesticide residues in complex matrices.

Abstract
Determination of trace glycoprotein has important guiding significance in clinical diagnosis and is usually achieved by immunoaffinity. However, immunoaffinity possesses inherent drawbacks, such as poor probability of high-quality antibodies, instability of biological reagents, and harmfulness of chemical labels to the body. Herein, we propose an innovative method of peptide-oriented surface imprinting to fabricate artificial antibody for recognition of glycoprotein. By integrating peptide-oriented surface imprinting and PEGylation, an innovative hydrophilic peptide-oriented surface imprinting magnetic nanoparticle (HPIMN) was successfully fabricated with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) as a model glycoprotein template. In addition, we further prepared a novel boronic acid-modified/fluorescein isothiocyanate-loaded/polyethylene glycol-covered carbon nanotube (BFPCN) as fluorescence signal output device, which was loaded with numerous fluorescent molecules could specifically label the cis-diol of glycoprotein at physiological pH via boronate-affinity interaction. To prove the practicability, we proposed a HPIMN-BFPCN strategy, in which the HPIMN first selectively captured the HER2 due to the molecular imprinted recognition and then the BFPCN specific labeled the exposed cis-diol of HER2 based on the boronate-affinity reaction. The HPIMN-BFPCN strategy exhibited ultrahigh sensitivity with limit of detection of 14 fg mL-1 and was successfully used in the determination of HER2 in spiked sample with recovery and relative standard deviation in the range of 99.0%-103.0% and 3.1%-5.6%, respectively. Therefore, we believe that the novel peptide-oriented surface imprinting has great potential to become an universal strategy for fabrication of recognition units for other protein biomarkers, and the synergy sandwich assay could become a powerful tool in prognosis evaluation and clinical diagnosis of glycoprotein-related diseases.

Abstract
In order to develop new protein imprinting polymerization methods and to prepare protein imprinted nanomaterials with high recognition, a novel protein imprinted strategy is developed in this study by using polyethyleneimine (PEI) for aminolysis of tailor-made thiolactone-based functional monomers and crosslinkers on amine-modified magnetic nanospheres in an aqueous medium. The prepared protein imprinted nanospheres can seize BSA templates in the imprinting polymerization process through multiple hydrogen bonds, and hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. In addition, the aminolysis reaction also generates abundant amide bonds in the imprinting polymer network, which not only enhances the hydrogen bonding interactions between the imprinted nanospheres and BSA but also improves the stability of the imprinting cavities by increasing the rigidity of the polymer chains. Based on the above advantages, the protein imprinted nanospheres show excellent rebinding specificity for BSA, for which the rebinding capacity is up to 505 ± 15 mg g-1 and the imprinting factor is 4.09. The protein imprinted nanospheres exhibit fast adsorption kinetics, outstanding reusability, and can selectively separate BSA from a protein mixture and actual biological samples. The generality of this imprinted method is also verified. Thus, this study will provide a new idea for the design of protein imprinted materials with high recognition.

Abstract
This research studies the use of vinasse (VS) coming from Pisco and caffeic acid (Caa) from solid coffee waste as chelating agents of this process, to carry out a photo-Fenton process using UVc lamps of 254-nm wavelength for 60 min, at the natural pH of the landfill leachate (8.9). Without the chelating agent, there was a removal of UV 254 and COD of 54.2% and 54.7%, respectively, when the photo-Fenton reaction was carried out at pH 3; at pH 6, the removal of UV 254 and COD was 13.1% and 39.2%, respectively, and at pH 8.9, the elimination of UV 254 and COD was 10.8% and 16.1%, respectively. When Caa was used in the landfill leachate (LL) for the photo-catalytic processes carried out at pH 8.9, a removal of 24.1%, 43.0%, and 47.4% of UV 254 was obtained using 5 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L of Caa. The removal of UV 254 was 27.3%, 30.7%, and 36.3% using 5 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L of VS, respectively, and the removal of COD was 32.2%, 35.4%, and 39.2% using 5 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L of VS, respectively. When Caa was used in the LL at pH 8.9, the concentration of total Fe went from 37.5 to 33.2, from 40.2 to 36.8, and from 45.2 to 42.1, using 5 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L of caffeic acid, respectively. Using VS in the LL at pH 8.9, the concentration of total Fe along the run went from 35.1 to 32.2, from 39.4 to 34.8, and from 42.1 to 40.2, using 5 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L of VS, respectively. As a result of these processes, it was noted that the use of Caa and VS increases the solubility of Fe at a higher pH.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) can exhibit antibody-level affinity for target molecules. However, the nonspecific adsorption of non-imprinted regions for non-target molecules limits the application range of MIPs. Herein, we fabricated PEGylated boronate-affinity-oriented ellagic acid-imprinting magnetic nanoparticles (PBEMN), which first integrated boronate-affinity-oriented surface imprinting and sequential PEGylation for small molecule-imprinted MIPs. The resultant PBEMN possess higher adsorption capacity and faster adsorption rate for template ellagic acid (EA) molecules than the non-PEGylated control. To prove the excellent performance, the PBEMN were linked with hydrophilic boronic acid-modified/fluorescein isothiocyanate-loaded graphene oxide (BFGO), because BFGO could selectively label cis-diol-containing substances by boronate-affinity and output ultrasensitive fluorescent signals. Based on a dual boronate-affinity synergy, the PBEMN first selectively captured EA molecules by boronate-affinity-oriented molecular imprinted recognition, and then the EA molecules were further labeled with BFGO through boronate-affinity. The PBEMN linked BFGO (PBPF) strategy provided ultrahigh sensitivity for EA molecules with a limit of detection of 39.1 fg mL-1, resulting from the low nonspecific adsorption of PBEMN and the ultrasensitive fluorescence signal of BFGO. Lastly, the PBPF strategy was successfully employed in the determination of EA concentration in a spiked beverage sample with recovery and relative standard deviation in the range of 96.5 to 104.2% and 3.8 to 5.1%, respectively. This work demonstrates that the integration of boronate-affinity-oriented surface imprinting and sequential PEGylation may be a universal tool for improving the performance of MIPs.
