AbstractThere is enormous potential for the analytical applications of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs); for example, the imprinted polymer sites can function as the molecular recognition element of sensors, immunoassays, and separation media. However, difficulties with formulation variables and the need for empirical optimization have inhibited the widespread use of MIPs by the general scientific community. While investigating new crosslinkers for molecular imprinting, we have recently discovered a much simpler approach to MIP formation which utilizes a single crosslinking monomer, NOBE (N, Obismethacryloyl ethanolamine) in addition to template, solvent and initiator (shown in Scheme 1). We have given this molecular imprinting method the acronym “OMNiMIPs” which stands for one monomer molecularly imprinted polymers. This new formulation eliminates variables such as choice of functional monomer (FM) and crosslinker (XL), the ratio of functional monomer to crosslinker (FM/XL), and the ratio of functional monomer to template which normally complicates MIP design. The affects of OMNiMIP performance variables toward molecular recognition indicate significant differences between these new materials and traditional MIPs formulated with ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) and methacrylic acid (MAA). These differences and the utility of OMNiMIPs will be discussed.

This perspective presents an overview of approaches to the preparation of molecular recognition agents for chemical sensing. These approaches include chemical synthesis, using catalysts from biological systems, partitioning, aptamers, antibodies and molecularly imprinted polymers. The latter three approaches are general in that they can be applied with a large number of analytes, both proteins and smaller molecules like drugs and hormones. Aptamers and antibodies bind analytes rapidly while molecularly imprinted polymers bind much more slowly. Most molecularly imprinted polymers, formed by polymerizing in the presence of a template, contain a high level of covalent crosslinker that causes the polymer to form a separate phase. This results in a material that is rigid with low affinity for analyte and slow binding kinetics. Our approach to templating is to use predominantly or exclusively noncovalent crosslinks. This results in soluble templated polymers that bind analyte rapidly with high affinity. The biggest challenge of this approach is that the chains are tangled when the templated polymer is dissolved in water, blocking access to binding sites.
