Preparation of Magnetic Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for Selective Isolation and Determination of Kaempferol and Protoapigenone in Macrothelypteris torresiana

摘要

Novel uniform-sized magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers(MMIPs) were synthesized for selective recognition of active antitumor ingredients of kaempferol(KMF) and protoapigenone(PA) in Macrothelypteris torresiana(M. torresiana) by surface molecular imprinting technique in this study. Super paramagnetic core-shell nanoparticles(γ-MPS-SiO 2@Fe3O4) were used as seeds, KMF as template molecule, acrylamide(AM) as functional monomer, and N, N'-methylene bisacrylamide(BisA M) as cross-linker. The prepared MMIPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrum(FTIR), transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and thermo-gravimetric analysis(TGA), respectively. The recognition capacity of MMIPs was 2.436 times of non-imprinted polymers. The adsorption results based on kinetics and isotherm analysis were in accordance with the pseudo-second-order model(R2=0.9980) and the Langmuir adsorption model(R2=0.9944). The value of E(6.742 k J/mol) calculated from the Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model suggested that the physical adsorption via hydrogen-bonding might be predominant. The Scatchard plot showed a single line(R2=0.9172) and demonstrated the homogeneous recognition sites on MMIPs for KMF. The magnetic solid phase extraction(MSPE) based on MMIPs as sorbent was established for fast and selective enrichment of KMF and its structural analogue PA from the crude extract of M. torresiana and then KMF and PA were detected by HPLC-UV. The established method showed good performance and satisfactory results for real sample analysis. It also showed the feasibility of MMIPs for selective recognition of active structural analogues from complex herbal extracts.
