Abstract
As a typical kind of new pollutants, there are still some challenges in the rapid detection of antibiotics. In this work, a sensitive fluorescent probe based on boron-doped carbon dots (B-CDs) in combination with thermo-responsive magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (T-MMIPs) was constructed for the detection of oxytetracycline (OTC) in tea drinks. T-MMIPs were designed, fabricated and employed to enrich OTC at trace level from tea drinks, and B-CDs were utilized as the fluorescent probe to detect the concentration of OTC. The proposed method exhibited good linear relationship with OTC concentration from 0.2 to 60 μg L-1 and the limit of detection was 0.1 μg L-1. The established method has been successfully validated with tea beverages. Present work was the first attempt application of T-MMIPs in combination with CDs in detection of OTC, and demonstrated that the proposed method endowed the detection of OTC with high selectivity, sensitivity, reliability and wide application prospect, meanwhile offered a new strategy for the method establishment of rapid and sensitive detection of trace antibiotics in food and other matrices.

Abstract
3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) is a biomarker closely associated with the early diagnosis of oxidative stress-related disorders. The development of an accurate, cost-effective, point-of-care 3-NT sensor holds significant importance for self-monitoring and clinical treatment. In this study, a selective, sensitive, and portable molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was developed. ZIF-67 with strong adsorption capacity was facilely modified on an electrochemically active laser-induced graphene (LIG) substrate (formed ZIF-67/LIG). Subsequently, biocompatible dopamine was chosen as the functional monomer, and interference-free ʟ-tyrosine was used as the dummy template to create molecularly imprinted polydopamine (MIPDA) on the ZIF-67/LIG, endowing the sensor with selectivity. The morphologies, electrochemical properties, and detection performance of the sensor were comprehensively investigated using scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and differential pulse voltammetry. To achieve the best performance, several parameters were optimized, including the number of polymerization cycles (15), elution time (60 min), incubation time (7 min), and pH of the buffer solution (6). The turnaround time for this sensor is 10 min. Benefiting from the alliance of MIPDA, ZIF-67, and LIG, the sensor exhibited excellent sensitivity with a detection limit of 6.71 nM, and distinguished selectivity against 11 interfering substances. To enable convenient clinical diagnosis, a customized electrochemical microsensor with MIPDA/ZIF-67/LIG was designed, showcasing excellent reliability and convenience in detecting biological samples without pretreatment. The proposed microsensor will not only facilitate clinical diagnosis and improve patient care, but also provide inspiration for the development of other portable and accurate electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by ciprofloxacin is a major problem of global public health. A machine learning-assisted portable smartphone-based visualized molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence (MIECL) sensor was developed for the highly selective and sensitive detection of ciprofloxacin (CFX) in food. To boost the efficiency of electrochemiluminescence (ECL), oxygen vacancies (OVs) enrichment was introduced into the flower-like Tb@Lu2O3 nanoemitter. With the specific recognition reaction between MIP as capture probes and CFX as detection target, the ECL signal significantly decreased. According to, CFX analysis was determined by traditional ECL analyzer detector in the concentration range from 5 × 10-4 to 5 × 102 μmol L-1 with the detection limit (LOD) of 0.095 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3). Analysis of luminescence images using fast electrochemiluminescence judgment network (FEJ-Net) models, achieving portable and intelligent quick analysis of CFX. The proposed MIECL sensor was used for CFX analysis in real meat samples and satisfactory results, as well as efficient selectivity and good stability.

Abstract
Herein, a novel electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) dual-mode-based molecularly imprinted (MIP) sensor had been established for the detection of enrofloxacin (ENR) in eggs. Firstly, bismuth sulfide quantum dots (Bi2S3 QDs) as ECL luminophore were synthesized. Furthermore, a MIP film with ionic liquid (ILs), Bi2S3 QDs, and ENR was prepared via the electrochemical polymerization procedure on the electrode. As ENR was identified and captured by the imprinted cavities, the electron transfer pathway was blocked on the electrochemical interface, resulting in the decrease of both DPV signals and ECL signals. As a novel synchronous dual-mode sensing strategy, a pulsed voltage was applied to produce both the DPV signal and ECL signal simultaneously. The ECL and DPV response showed the good linear relationships with the concentration of ENR with the ranges of 0.5 Nm-25 μM and 5 nM-25 μΜ and the detection limits of 0.13 nM and 1.59 nM, respectively.

Abstract
Conventional molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) perform their functions principally depended on their three dimensional (3D) imprinted cavities (recognition sites) of templates. Here, retaining the function of recognition sites resulted from the imprinting of template molecules, the role of functional monomers is explored and expanded. Briefly, a class of dual-functional renin imprinted poly(methyldopa) (RMIP) is prepared, consisting of a drug-type function monomer (methyldopa, clinical high blood pressure drug) and a corresponding disease biomarker (renin, biomarker for high blood pressure disease). To boost target-to-receptor binding ratio and sensitivity, the microstructure of recognition sites is beforehand calculated and designed by Density Functional Theory calculations, and the whole interfacial structure, property and thickness of RMIP film is regulated by adjusting the polymerization techniques. The dual-functional applications of RMIP for biomarker detection and disease therapy in vivo is explored. Such RMIP-based biosensors achieves highly sensitive biomarker detection, where the LODs reaches down to 1.31 × 10-6 and 1.26 × 10-6 ng mL-1 for electrochemical and chemical polymers, respectively, and the application for disease therapy in vivo has been verified where displays the obviously decreased blood pressure values of mice. No acute and long-term toxicity is found from the pathological slices, declaring the promising clinical application potential of such engineered RMIP nanostructure.

Abstract
Herein, a self-enhanced molecularly imprinted polymer luminescence (MIP-ECL) sensing platform based on gold-copper doped Tb-MOFs (Au@Cu:Tb-MOFs) was constructed for ultra-sensitive detection of chlorpyrifos (CPF). In this work, Au@Cu:Tb-MOFs as co-reaction promoters greatly improve the ECL emission signal, while Au@Cu:Tb-MOFs were used as cathode emitters. And chlorpyrifos and 4,7-bis(thiophene-2-yl)benzo [c][1,2,5] thiadiazole were electropolymerized on electrode surface to form MIP, where this films with thiophene derivatives could greatly improve ECL signal. Notably, the introduction of MIP as recognition elements enabled specific identification of target analytes, in which molecular docking technique validated target analyte and functional monomers are tightly bound through Pi-alkyl interaction. As the concentration of CPF increases, the ECL signal gradually decreases, showing a good linear relationship in the range of 0.1-106 pg/mL with a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.029 pg/mL. Moreover, actual sample testing experiment of this method displayed a special correlation in organophosphorus detection and development potential in actual sample analysis.

Abstract
The study was performed in two phases. First, the polymerization was carried out upon three magnetized surfaces of silica aerogel, zeolite Y, and MIL-101(Cr). Then, optimal molecularly imprinted polymer and optimal extraction conditions were determined by the central composite design-response surface method. Subsequently, the validation parameters of dispersive solid-phase extraction based optimal molecularly imprinted polymer were examined for the extraction of the fuel ether oxygenates. The optimal conditions include the type of adsorbent: Zeolite-magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer, the amount of adsorbent: 40 mg, pH: 7.7, and absorption time: 24.8 min which was selected with desirability equal to 0.996. The calibration graphs were linear between 1 and 100 μg L-1, with good correlation coefficients. The limits of detection were found to be 0.64, 0. 4, and 0.34 μg L-1 for methyl tert-butyl ether, ethyl tert-butyl ether, and tert butyl formate, respectively. The method proved reliable for analyzing fuel ether oxygenates in drinking water.

Abstract
In this study, an electrochemical chemosensor that utilizes a conductive polymer-based molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) surface for rapid and reliable determination of CA125 was devised. A novel method has been applied to fabricate CA125 imprinted polypyrrole nanotubes (MI-PPy NT) via vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) as a recognition element for highly selective and sensitive determination of CA125. The chemosensor was prepared by immobilizing MI-PPy NT onto screen-printed gold electrodes (Au-SPE) and the performance of the sensor was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in terms of selectivity, sensitivity, linear dynamic concentration range (LDR) and limit of detection (LOD). The MI-PPy NT@Au-SPE sensor exhibited high sensitivity (68.57 μA per decade) to the CA125 concentration ranging from 0.1 U mL-1 to 100 U mL-1 at an LOD of 0.4 U mL-1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9922. The developed chemosensors with their novel design combined with a facile fabrication method, prove to be promising as future state-of-the-art biosensors.

Abstract
2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) is one of the most widely used herbicides, so adsorption and detection of MCPA in the environment is critical. Blue fluorescent carbon dot (CD) was synthesized from citric acid and urea, which could be quenched by MCPA. Herein, bifunctional molecularly imprinted polymer (CD@MIP) was prepared on monodisperse poly (glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) microspheres, with 4-vinylpyridine as the functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linking agent, and doped with CD. The enrichment ability of CD@MIP for MCPA and fluorescence detection performance were determined. The maximum adsorption amount of MCPA was 93.9 mg g-1 as determined by isothermal adsorption experiments and was in accordance with the Langmuir adsorption model. The results of the kinetic experiments showed that the adsorption equilibrium reached within 30 min, which possessed a relatively fast adsorption rate and was in accordance with the pseudo-second-order adsorption model. Both MIP without CD and non-imprinted polymers were also fabricated and tested as references. Fluorescence experiments showed good linearity of CD@MIP in the range of 0-80 μmol. The cabbage samples were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography with a linear range of 0.02-15 μg mL-1, recoveries of 90.5%-98% and low relative standard deviations (RSD, n = 3) of 1.5%-5.9%. CD@MIP with excellent performance provides a feasible practical application in the detection and enrichment of MCPA.

Abstract
Saponin is an essential natural compound in purple yams with high nutritional and medicinal value. In this work, a multitemplate molecule-imprinted polymer (MMIP) was synthesized with dioscin, protodioscin, and diosgenin templates. The MMIPs were characterized with scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) adsorption, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The efficacy of the MMIPs was assessed with static, dynamic, selective adsorption, desorption, and reusability experiments. The three saponins were selectively extracted and determined by MMIP-high-performance liquid chromatography. The polymer morphology was regular and spherical. The amount of the MMIP adsorbed was 74.825 mg/g, and the imprinting factor was 2.1. The MMIP adsorbed the three saponins from purple yam extract, with recovery rates of 95.5-103.43 % and desorption rates of 85 %-98 %. In addition, the MMIPs were reused at least six times. These results demonstrated that the MMIPs efficiently and selectively extracted dioscin, protodioscin, and diosgenin from food matrices at high rates.

Abstract
In this study, carbon dots (CDs)-encapsulated luminescent metal-organic frameworks@surface molecularly imprinted polymer (CDs@MOF@SMIP) was facilely prepared and applied as fluorescent probe for specific identification and sensitive detection of chloramphenicol (CAP) in food. Fluorescent CDs, serving as signal tags, were encapsulated within metal-organic backbones (ZIF-8), yielding luminescent MOF materials (CDs@ZIF-8). The synthesized CDs, CDs@ZIF-8 and CDs@ZIF-8@SMIP were investigated by morphological and structural characterizations (UV-Vis, XRD, FT-IR, BET, TEM). The CDs@ZIF-8@SMIP probe was demonstrated to have remarkable selectivity and sensitivity towards CAP. Its fluorescence decreased linearly with CAP concentration from 0.323 μg L-1 (0.001 μM) to 8075.0 μg L-1 (25.0 μM), featuring a low detection limit of 0.08 μg L-1. The CDs@ZIF-8@SMIP-based fluorescence strategy achieved satisfactory recoveries (95.5 % - 101.0 %) in CAP-spiked commercial foods with RSD < 4.4 % (n = 3). These results indicate that this method can effectively detect trace CAP in food matrices and has broad application prospects.

Abstract
Malachite green (MG) possesses high toxicity, therefore, the detection of MG in fish tissues is of vital importance. A novel core-shell MIPs doped CdTe quantum dots coated silica nanoparticles (CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs) were synthesized via a simple one-pot strategy. The materials were characterized carefully. The resulting CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs were coated on the thin layer chromatography plate, and coupled with miniaturized fluorimeter for fluorescence detection of MG in fish samples. The resulting CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs based system possessed good linearity (0.01 ∼ 20 μmol/L), high recoveries (98.36 %∼101.45 %) and low detection limit (3.7 nmol/L) for MG. Furthermore, CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs based system were employed to measure fish samples spiked with MG, meanwhile, HPLC was utilized to evaluate the accuracy and reliability. And the paired t-test was conducted to evaluate differences between fluorescence method and HPLC, P > 0.05 means no significant difference was observed, the results demonstrated that both fluorescence method and HPLC are suitable for MG analysis.

Abstract
An eco-friendly biomass waste-derived magnetic material coated with a dual-dummy-template molecularly imprinted polymer was fabricated using aqueous ethanol as a green porogen, lower amounts of toxic compounds as template molecules, and tyrosine and tryptophan as biocompatible binary monomers. The binding characteristics and selectivity of the material toward pesticides were assessed. High adsorption capacities ranging from 150.11 to 509.09 mg g-1 and imprinting factors reaching 2.2 were achieved within just 30 s. The material was applied for extraction of organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides prior to HPLC analysis. Under the optimum conditions, low limits of detection and quantitation were achieved, with ranges of 0.05-1.49 μg/L and 0.18-5.00 μg/L, respectively. The established approach enables efficient analysis of vegetable and fruit samples, yielding satisfactory recoveries ranging between 80 and 110 %. The method showed promise as an analytical method for the sensitive enrichment of pesticide residues in vegetable and fruit samples.

Abstract
Rhamnolipids (RHLs) are promising biosurfactants with important applications in several industrial segments. These compounds are produced through biotechnological processes using the bacteria Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. The main methods of analyzing this compound are based on chromatographic techniques. In this study, an electrochemical sensor based on a platform modified with reduced graphene oxide, manganese nanoparticles covered with a molecularly imprinted poly (L-Ser) film was used as an alternative method to quantify RHL through its hydrolysis product, acid 3-hydroxydecanoic acid (3-HDA). The proposed sensor was characterized microscopically, spectroscopically and electrochemically. Under optimized experimental conditions, an analytical curve was obtained in the linear concentration range from 2.0 × 10-12 mol L-1 to 1.0 × 10-10 mol L-1. The values estimated of LOD, LOQ and AS were 8.3 × 10-13 mol L-1, 2.7 × 10-12 mol L-1and 1.3 × 107 A L mol-1, respectively. GCE/rGO/MnNPs/L-Ser@MIP exhibits excellent selectivity, repeatability, and high stability for the detection of 3-HDA. Furthermore, the developed method was successfully applied to the recognition of the hydrolysis product (3-HDA) of RHLs obtained from guava agro-waste. Statistical comparison between GCE/rGO/MnNPs/L-Ser@MIP and HPLC method confirms the accuracy of the electrochemical sensor within a 95% confidence interval.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical sensor was developed for the detection of salivary cortisol levels. The sensor employs a combination of a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that are electrodeposited onto a screen-printed electrode (SPE). The study utilised density functional theory and molecular docking techniques to determine the geometry of molecular orbitals, electrostatic potential energies, and binding energy of cortisol and the polymers. The thin film of cortisol-imprinted polymer on the SPE was created by electro-polymerizing pyrrole and thiophene-3-carboxylic acid on the electrode surface along with cortisol as the template molecule. The MIP film was characterised using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and electrochemical techniques. The sensor exhibited a linear response in the concentration range of 0.05 nmol L-1 to 2.5 μmol L-1, with a limit of detection of 0.01 nmol L-1, as determined by differential pulse voltammetry. This method offers a simple yet efficient and sensitive approach to detecting cortisol levels in human saliva samples.

Abstract
Bio-based nanostructured molecularly imprinted polymers (nano-MIPs), also known as 'plastibodies', have a real potential to be used as alternatives to natural antibodies. These nanostructures have recently gained significant attention for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In this context, we have developed polynorepinephrine (PNE)-based nano-MIPs using an eco-friendly one-pot process for the sensitive and selective detection of a model biomolecule, immunoglobulin IgG1. We first investigated non-imprinted nanostructures (nano-NIPs) based on polydopamine as reference material, using DLS, SEM, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Subsequently, PNE scaffolds were characterized, both in the form of nano-NIPs and nano-MIPs. Concerning nano-MIPs, we used the epitope-directed imprinting technology to create binding cavities using a small peptide from the constant region of IgG1 as a template. Nano-MIPs were initially immobilized on a sensing surface to assess their binding capacity via surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. This strategy showed very good sensitivity, outperforming planar PNE-based imprinted films while keeping a high selectivity even in complex biological matrices such as human serum. Furthermore, we confirmed the presence of selective binding sites on nano-MIPs by flowing them, along with nano-NIPs, through a microfluidic SPR system, where they interact with the covalently immobilized analyte. This approach resulted in a good imprinting factor of 4.5. Overall, this study underscores the broad potential of these nanostructures as a viable and reusable alternative to antibodies across a variety of bioanalytical, biochemical, and immunohistochemistry analysis techniques.

Abstract
Marine algal toxin contamination is a major threat to human health. Thus, it is crucial to develop rapid and on-site techniques for detecting algal toxins. In this work, we developed colorimetric cloth and paper hybrid microfluidic devices (μCPADs) for rapid detection of gonyautoxin (GTX1/4) combined with molecularly imprinted polymers. In addition, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composites were applied for this approach by their unique features. Guanosine serves as a dummy template for surface imprinting and has certain structural advantages in recognizing gonyautoxin. MOF@MIPs composites were able to perform a catalytic color reaction using hydrogen peroxide-tetramethylbenzidine for the detection of GTX1/4. The cloth-based sensing substrates were assembled on origami μPADs to form user-friendly, miniaturized colorimetric μCPADs. Combined with a smartphone, the proposed colorimetric μCPADs successfully achieved a low limit of detection of 0.65 μg/L within the range of 1-200 μg/L for rapid visual detection of GTX1/4. Moreover, the GTX1/4 of real shellfish and seawater samples were satisfactorily detected to indicate the application prospect of the μCPADs. The proposed method shows good potential in the low-cost, stable establishment of assays for the rapid detection of environmental biotoxins.

Poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) microspheres were selected as a matrix, 4-vinylpyridine, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) as functional monomer, cross-linker and template molecule, respectively, to fabricate MAR@MIP with core-shell structure. For comparison, carbon dot (CD) as a fluorescence source was synthesized with o-phenylenediamine and tryptophan as precursors via hydrothermal method and integrated into MIP to acquire MAR@CD-MIP. MAR@CD-NIP was also prepared without adding the template molecule. The adsorption capacity of MAR@CD-MIP reached 104 mg g-1 for 2,4-D, which was higher than that of MAR@MIP (60 mg g-1). However, the adsorption capacity of MAR@CD-NIP was only 13.2 mg g-1. The linear range of fluorescence detection for 2,4-D was 18-72 μmol/L, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.35 μmol/L. The fluorescent MAR@CD-MIP was successfully applied in enrichment of lettuce samples. The recoveries of the three spiked concentrations of 2,4-D in lettuce were tested by fluorescence spectrophotometry and ranged in 97.3-101.7 %. Meanwhile, the results were also verified by HPLC. As a result, bi-functional molecularly imprinted resin was successfully fabricated to detect and enrich 2,4-D in real samples, and exhibited good selectivity, sensitivity and great application prospect in food detection.

Abstract
Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)-based molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors have attracted widespread attention for monitoring contaminants in food and the environment. However, there are still problems such as poor hydrophilicity, easy agglomeration, and low selectivity in its preparation. In this work, a novel molecularly imprinted composite hollow sphere was prepared by a molecular imprinting technique using nitrogen-doped hollow carbon spheres as matrix material, and PEDOT and poly(methacrylic acid) as monomers. The selective binding capabilities and mechanism of the material to norfloxacin (NOR) were systematically investigated. Then the material-based sensor was constructed, and its electrochemical detection performance toward NOR was thoroughly studied. The sensor exhibited a wide linear range (0.0005-31 μM), a low detection limit (0.061 nM), satisfactory immunity to interference and stability. Besides, the sensor displayed better sensitivity and reliability (spiked recoveries of 98.0-105.2%, relative standard deviation of 3.45-5.69%) for detecting NOR in lake water, honey, and milk than high-performance liquid chromatography. This work provides a new strategy for developing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-based molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most prevalent type of incurable movement disorder. Recent research findings propose that the familial PD-associated molecule DJ-1 exists in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and that its levels may be altered as Parkinson's disease advances. By using a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as an artificial receptor, it becomes possible to create a functional MIP with predetermined selectivity for various templates, particularly for the DJ-1 biomarker associated with Parkinson's disease. It mostly depends on molecular recognition via interactions between functional monomers and template molecules. So, the computational methods for the appropriate choice of functional monomers for creating molecular imprinting electropolymers (MIEPs) with particular recognition for the detection of DJ-1, a pivotal biomarker involved in PD, are undertaken in this study. Here, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations (MD), molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) methods, and quantum mechanical calculation have been applied to investigate the intermolecular interaction between DJ-1 and several functional electropentamers, viz., polypyrrole (PPy), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), poly(o-aminophenol) (POAP), and polythiophene (PTS). In this context, the electropentamers were selected to mimic the imprinted electropolymer system. We analyzed the most stable configurations of the formed complexes involving DJ-1 and electropentamers as a model system for MIEPs. Among these, PEDOT exhibited a more uniform arrangement around DJ-1, engaging in numerous van der Waals, H-bond, electrostatic, and hydrophobic interactions. Hence, it can be regarded as a preferable choice for synthesizing a MIP for DJ-1 recognition. Thus, it will aid in selecting a suitable functional monomer, which is of greater significance in the design and development of selective DJ-1/MIP sensors.

Abstract
Molecular imprinting polymers (MIPs) are synthetic receptors as biomimetic materials for various applications ranging from sensing to separation and catalysis. However, currently existing MIPs are stuck to some of the issues including the longer preparation steps and poor performance. In this report, a facile and one-pot strategy by integrating the in-situ growth of magnetic nanoparticles and reversed phase microemulsion oriented molecularly imprinting strategy to develop magnetic molecular imprinted nanocomposites was proposed. Through self-assembling of the template, it brought up highly ordered and uniform arrangement of the imprinting structure, which offered faster adsorption kinetic as adsorption equilibrium was achived within 15 min, higher adsorption capacity (Qmax = 48.78 ± 1.54 μmol/g) and high affinity (Kd = 127.63 ± 9.66 μM) toward paradigm molecule-adenosine monophosphate (AMP) compared to the conventional bulk imprinting. The developed MIPs offered better affinity and superior specificity which allowed the specific enrichment toward targeted phosphorylated peptides from complex samples containing 100-fold more abundant interfering peptides. Interestingly, different types of MIPs can be developed which could targetly enrich the specific phosphorylated peptides for mass spectrometry analysis by simply switching the templates, and this strategy also successfully achieved imprinting of macromolecular peptides. Collectively, the approach showed broad applicability to target specific enrichment from metabolites to phosphorylated peptides and providing an alternative choice for selective recognition and analysis from complex biological systems.

Abstract
In this study, a novel Fe3O4-based biochar coupled surface-imprinted polymer was constructed via simple hydrothermal route for salicylic acid recognition and degradation in advanced oxidation processes. The material exhibited excellent adsorption capability, up to 118.23 mg g-1, and efficient degradation performance, 87.44% removal rate within 240 min, based on integrating the advantages of both huge specific surface area as well as abundant functional groups from biochars and specific recognition sites from imprinted cavities. Moreover, high selectivity coefficient (11.67) showed stable recognition in single and binary systems. SO4•- and •OH were confirmed as reactive oxygen species in catalytic reaction according to quenching experiments and EPR analysis. The degradation mechanism and pathway were unraveled by DFT calculations and LC-MS. Furthermore, the results of toxicity evaluation, stability and reusability demonstrated application potential in the field of water environment restoration.

Abstract
This article introduces distance-based paper analytical devices (dPADs) integrated with molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and carbon dots (CDs) for simultaneous quantification of cytokine biomarkers, namely C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in human biological samples for diagnosis of cytokine syndrome. Using fluorescent CDs and MIP technology, the dPAD exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity. Detection is based on fluorescence quenching of CDs achieved through the interaction of the target analytes with the MIP layer on the paper substrate. Quantitative analysis is easily accomplished by measuring the distance length of quenched fluorescence with a traditional ruler and naked eye readout enabling rapid diagnosis of cytokine syndrome and the underlying infection. Our sensor demonstrated linear ranges of 2.50-24.0 pg mL-1 (R2 = 0.9974), 0.25-3.20 pg mL-1 (R2 = 0.9985), and 1.50-16.0 pg mL-1 (R2 = 0.9966) with detection limits (LODs) of 2.50, 0.25, and 1.50 pg mL-1 for CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6, respectively. This sensor also demonstrated remarkable selectivity compared to a sensor employing a non-imprinted polymer (NIP), and precision with the highest relative standard deviation (RSD) of 5.14%. The sensor is more accessible compared to prior methods relying on expensive reagents and instruments and complex fabrication methods. Furthermore, the assay provided notable accuracy for monitoring these biomarkers in various human samples with recovery percentages ranging between 99.22% and 103.58%. By integrating microfluidic systems, nanosensing, and MIPs technology, our developed dPADs hold significant potential as a cost-effective and user-friendly analytical method for point-of-care diagnostics (POC) of cytokine-related disorders. This concept can be further extended to developing diagnostic devices for other biomarkers.

Abstract
The widespread presence of pharmaceuticals in wastewater effluents after treatment stands as a significant challenge faced in the field of wastewater management and public health. Governments and the scientific community have worked to meet this urgent need for effective solutions. Nevertheless, the development of detection strategies for pharmaceutical monitorization capable of delivering rapid, on-site, and sensitive responses remains an ongoing necessity. In this work, the performance of a previously developed molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based electrochemical sensor for detecting atorvastatin (ATV) in wastewater effluents and surface waters is presented. A simple preconcentration method followed by electrochemical measurements by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH = 7), was implemented. The analytical results were validated with those obtained on a set of 16 water samples by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Additionally, a life cycle assessment (LCA) was conducted to compare the environmental impact of both methodologies. The results obtained demonstrated that ATV detection using MIP-sensor was reliable when compared to the results found by UHPLC-MS/MS presenting a robust linear correlation coefficient of 0.843. The LCA results show that the novel MIP-sensor technique has lower associated environmental impacts than UHPLC-MS/MS, when the current analytical protocol for pharmaceuticals detection is applied. These findings highlight the potential of the developed MIP-sensor as an eco-friendly analytical tool for routine analysis and point-of-care monitoring of ATV in WWTP wastewater and surface water samples.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic antibodies developed to bind selectively with specific molecules. They function through a particular recognition process involving their cavities and functional groups. Nevertheless, functional groups located outside these cavities are the main cause of non-specific molecule binding, thus reducing the effectiveness of MIPs in sensing applications. This work focused on enhancing the selectivity and performance of MIPs through electrostatic modification with surfactants. The study investigates the use of two surfactants, namely sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), to eliminate non-specific adsorption in MIPs. The binding isotherms of the target molecule sulfamethoxazole (SMX) on MIPs and non-imprinted polymers (NIPs) were analyzed, showing higher adsorption capacity of MIPs due to the specific cavities. The modification with SDS or CTAB effectively eliminated non-specific adsorption in MIPs. The kinetic adsorption behavior further demonstrated the efficacy of MIP+--SDS/CTAB in the selective adsorption of SMX. Calibration curves showcase the methodology's analytical capabilities, achieving low limit of detection for SMX 6 ng mL-1 using MIP +-SDS. The stability study confirmed that the developed MIP +/--SDS/CTAB remains stable even at high temperatures, demonstrating its suitability for on-site applications. The methodology was successfully applied to detect SMX in milk and water samples, achieving promising recoveries. Overall, the electrostatic modification of MIPs with surfactants emerges as a valuable strategy for enhancing selectivity and performance in target molecule recognition and detection.

Abstract
This study proposes a new alternative for template removal from molecularly imprinted polymers by heat activated persulfate. It is known that trace amounts of template molecule remains in the polymer network after extraction by current methodologies leading to bleeding and incomplete removal of template which could compromise final determination of target analytes especially in trace analysis. A previously developed molecularly imprinted polymer specially designed for Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) extraction was employed as a model to test this template elimination approach. This polymer is based on methacrylic acid and ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate as monomers and Coenzyme Q0 as template. This coenzyme has the same quinone group as the CoQ10. Selectivity was analyzed comparing the recovery of CoQ10 and ubichromenol, a CoQ10 related substance. Chemical degradation using heat-activated persulfate allows the elimination of the template molecule with a high level of efficiency, being a simple and ecological methodology, yielding a polymer that exhibits comparable selectivity and imprinting effect with respect to traditional extraction methods.

A restricted access material based on magnetic and mesoporous molecularly imprinted polymer has been properly synthesized and characterized, demonstrating excellent selectivity and high adsorbent capacity. Short-end injection capillary electrophoresis method was optimized: 75 mM triethylamine pH 7 as BGE, -20 kV, 50 mbar by hydrodynamic injection during 8 s, and capillary temperature at 25 °C; reaching ultrafast ractopamine analysis (∼0.6 min) with good peak asymmetry, and free from interfering and/or baseline noise. After sample preparation optimization, the conditions were: 1000 µL of sample at pH 6, 20 mg of adsorbent, stirring time of 120 s, 250 µL of ultrapure water as washing solvent, 1000 µL of methanol: acetic acid (7: 3, v/v) as eluent, and the adsorbent can be reused four times. In these conditions, the analytical method showed recoveries around to 100 %, linearity ranged from 9.74 to 974.0 µg kg-1, correlation coefficient (r) ≥ 0,99 in addition to adequate precision, accuracy, and robustness. After proper validation, the method was successfully applied in the analysis ractopamine residues in bovine milk and bovine and porcine muscle.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful method for detecting breast cancer-specific biomarkers due to its extraordinary enhancement effects obtained by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in metallic nanostructures at hotspots. In this research, gold nanostars (AuNSs) were used as SERS probes to detect a cancer biomarker at very low concentrations. To this end, we combined molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as a detection layer with SERS for the detection of the biomarker CA 15-3 in point-of-care (PoC) analysis. This required two main steps: (i) the deposition of MIPs on a gold electrode, followed by a second step (ii) antibody binding with AuNSs containing a suitable Raman reporter to enhance Raman signaling (SERS). The MPan sensor was prepared by electropolymerization of the monomer aniline in the presence of CA 15-3. The template molecule was then extracted from the polymer using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). In parallel, a control material was prepared in the absence of the protein (NPan). Surface modification for the control was performed using electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The performance of the sensor was evaluated using the SERS technique, in which the MPan sensor is first incubated with the protein and then exposed to the SERS probe. Under optimized conditions, the device showed a linear response to CA 15-3 concentrations from 0.016 to 248.51 U mL-1 in a PBS buffer at pH 7.4 in 1000-fold diluted serum. Overall, this approach demonstrates the potential of SERS as an optical reader and opens a new avenue for biosensing applications.

Abstract
Toluene, a volatile organic compound, may have adverse effects on the nervous and digestive system when inhaled over an extended period. The assessment of environmental toluene exposure can be effectively conducted by detecting hippuric acid (HA), a toluene metabolite. In this investigation, a molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor was developed for HA detection, utilizing the synergistic effects of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and a bimetallic organic skeleton known as CoNi-MOF. Initially, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized using a modified Hummers' method, and RGO with better conductivity was achieved through reduction with ascorbic acid (AA). Subsequently, CoNi-MOF was introduced to enhance the material's electron transport capabilities further. The molecularly imprinted membrane was then prepared via electropolymerization to enable selective HA recognition. Under optimal conditions, the synthesized sensor exhibited accurate HA detection within a concentration range of 2-800 nM, with a detection limit of 0.97 nM. The sensor's selectivity was assessed using a selectivity coefficient, yielding an imprinting factor of 6.53. The method was successfully applied to the quantification of HA in urine, demonstrating a favorable recovery rate of 93.4%-103.9%. In conclusion, this study presents a practical platform for the detection of human metabolite detection.

Abstract
Efficiently detecting diamide insecticides in environmental water is challenging due to their low concentrations and complex matrix interferences. In this study, we developed ionic liquids (ILs)-incorporated magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (IL-MMIPs) for the detection of diamide insecticides, capitalizing on the advantages of ILs and quick magnetic separation through surface imprinting. Tetrachlorantraniliprole was used as the template, and a specific IL, 1-vinyl-3-ethylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([VEIm][PF6]), was employed as the functional monomer. Various synthesis conditions were investigated to optimize adsorption efficiency. The prepared IL-MMIPs were successfully employed as adsorbents in magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) to selectively extract, separate, and quantify three types of diamide insecticides from water samples using HPLC-UV detection. Under optimal conditions, the analytical method achieved low limits of detection (0.69 ng mL-1, 0.64 ng mL-1, 0.59 ng mL-1 for cyantraniliprole, chlorantraniliprole and tetrachlorantraniliprole, respectively). The method also displayed a wide linear range (0.003-10 μg mL-1 for cyantraniliprole and chlorantraniliprole, and 0.004-10 μg mL-1 for tetrachlorantraniliprole, respectively) with satisfactory coefficients (R2≥0.9996), and low relative standard deviation (RSD≤2.55%). Additionally, extraction recoveries fell within the range of 79.4%-109%. The results clearly demonstrate that IL-MMIPs exhibit exceptional recognition and rebinding capabilities. The developed IL-MMIPs-MSPE-HPLC-UV method is straightforward and rapid, making it suitable for the detection and analysis of three kinds of diamide insecticides in environmental water.

Abstract
To enhance the sensitivity of flexible glucose sensors made with 3-aminophenylboronic acid and pyrrole as functional molecules and a carbon tri-electrode as substrate, graphene sponge (GS) and Prussian blue (PB) were used to enhance the charge transfer between the molecularly imprinted cavities and the electrodes. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry showed that modifying the electrode with GS and PB significantly reduced the charge transfer impedance and increased the redox current of the sensor. The sensor has a sensitivity of up to 25.81 µA⋅loge (µM)-1⋅cm-2 for the detection of glucose using differential pulse voltammetry in the range of 7.78 to 600 µM, with a low detection limit of 1.08 μM (S/N = 3). When the pH varies in the range of 5.5 to 7.5, the sensor maintains a certain level of stability for glucose detection. The presence of lactic acid, urea, and ascorbic acid had minimal impact on glucose detection by the sensor. After 20 days of storage at room temperature, the sensor maintains 80 % efficiency. This study supports the development of wearable glucose sensors with high sensitivity, specificity, and stability through molecular imprinting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Determining metals in complex biological samples, such as milk, typically involves dry or wet decomposition. However, these techniques have limitations, including low selectivity, risk of contamination, and the use of large reagent volumes. To solve these problems, solid-phase extraction (SPE) using multifunctional sorbents has been extensively explored. In this context, this work proposed synthesizing a new restricted double access ionic imprinted polymer (RAIIP-BSA), for online SPE and determination of Cu2+ from untreated milk samples via flow injection analysis and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FIA-FASS). RESULTS Firstly, the polymer was obtained by bulk polymerization using Cu2+ as a template, 4-vinyl pyridine as a functional monomer, and glycidyl methacrylate as a hydrophilic comonomer. Subsequently, it was covered with bovine serum albumin, creating the restricted double access barrier. The obtained material could exclude 97 % of the proteins from milk samples. RAIIP-BSA was chemically and physically characterized. The main extraction variables were optimized via multivariate optimization. The method showed good figures of merit, such as linearity ranging from 0.05 to 1.0 mg L-1, LoD and LoQ of 0.03 and 0.05 mg L-1, intra- and interday precision ranging from 0.73 to 4.14 % and 0.16-3.68 %, and an intra- and interday accuracy ranging from 97.0 to 115.0 % and 103.0-119.0 %, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE The developed method demonstrates the effective extraction of Cu2+ from untreated milk samples, exhibiting selectivity, high extraction capacity, prolonged sorbent (RAIIP-BSA) durability, simplicity, and swift operation. This method holds promise as an alternative to conventional metal analysis approaches in complex matrices.

Abstract
Biodegradable molecularly imprinted polymer-coated paper (MIP@paper) was effectively produced by polymerization using azinphos-methyl as a template molecule, terephthalic acid as a functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a cross-linker, and aqueous ethanol as a green porogenic solvent. The material was subsequently composited onto cellulose paper, which served as the natural substrate, by dip coating with the aid of chitosan and citric acid natural adhesive. The properties, such as static and dynamic adsorption, selectivity, and reusability, were assessed. At rapid adsorption equilibrium (10 min), the MIP@paper had a high adsorption capacity in the range of 2.5-3.7 mg g-1 and good recognition with imprinting factors up to 2.1. In addition, the proposed MIP@paper was utilized efficiently as a sorbent for dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) of eight organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) prior to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. The d-SPE-HPLC method displayed low detection limits of 1.2-4.5 μg kg-1 and significant enrichment factors (up to 320-fold). The proposed method was effectively applied for the determination of OPP residues in agricultural products, including fruits, vegetables, and cereal grains, with satisfactory spiked recoveries (80.1-119.1 %). Thus, the MIP@paper material provided a selective and environmentally favorable method for extracting and determining organophosphorus pesticides.

Abstract
A combination of SiO2@AuNPs@PDA molecularly imprinted and surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF MS) was devised as a method for highly specific and ultrasensitive detection of two biogenic amines-histamine (HIS) and tryptamine (TRP)-in real samples. In this strategy, AuNPs modified amino-abundant silica nanospheres (SiO2@AuNPs). The prepared SiO2@AuNPs were used as a substrate to synthesize a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) through in situ dopamine self-polymerization with HIS and TRP as the template molecules (SiO2@AuNP@PDA-MIP). The as-prepared MIP structure, properties, and target-analyte identification conditions were characterized and optimized and it was used as the matrix for MS. Compared to the case of nonimprinted materials, the imprinting function endowed the matrix with a higher selectivity for capturing the target molecules. The enriched analytes were directly and rapidly identified using SALDI-TOF MS without elution. Meanwhile, the proposed method has low background interference, good reproducibility and stability, high salt tolerance, and satisfactory linearity (R2 > 0.99), and it enables ultrasensitive detection of HIS and TRP (limits of detection for HIS and TRP were 0.2 and 0.1 ng mL-1, respectively). Moreover, the proposed method was applied to analyze samples of real beer, sausage, and chicken, and the results agreed with those obtained via liquid chromatography-MS, suggesting that the method has excellent practical applications in the field of food safety.

Abstract
Specific extraction and separation plays a pivotal role in the accurate quantification of trace phytohormones (PHs). However, due to their high polarity, specific capture of PHs is challenging. In this study, under the assistance of electric field, a molecular-imprinted-polymer functionalized electrode (MIP@ED) was in-situ prepared using 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA) as template and employed as the adsorbent of electric field-assisted solid-phase microextraction (EA-SPME) for specific capture of PHs. Results showed that the implementation of electric field during the preparation of MIP@ED and EA-SPME procedures improved the extraction selectivity, the selective factors towards IAA and its structural analogues increased from 2.09 to 2.45 to 2.88-3.51. Under the optimum conditions, the proposed MIP@ED/EA-SPME was combined with HPLC technique to monitor trace PHs in water and agricultural products. The achieved limits of detection were in the ranges of 0.0053-0.011 μg/L and 0.048-0.12 μg/kg for water and agricultural product, respectively. The established approach was successfully applied to quantify trace PHs in real samples, and the spiked recoveries varied from 84.0 % to 118 % with good repeatability (RSDs blow 10 %). The obtained results provided clear evidence that the developed approach employing the MIP@ED/EA-SPME technique demonstrated high sensitivity, good selectivity, satisfactory reproducibility and environmental friendliness in the quantification of trace PHs in complex samples. In addition, the current study supplied a new strategy to enhance the specific recognition performance of MIP-based SPME.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are the equivalent of natural antibodies and have been widely used as synthetic receptors for the detection of disease biomarkers. Benefiting from their excellent chemical and physical stability, low-cost, relative ease of production, reusability, and high selectivity, MIP-based electrochemical sensors have attracted great interest in disease diagnosis and demonstrated superiority over other biosensing techniques. Here we compare various types of MIP-based electrochemical sensors with different working principles. We then evaluate the state-of-the-art achievements of the MIP-based electrochemical sensors for the detection of different biomarkers, including nucleic acids, proteins, saccharides, lipids, and other small molecules. The limitations, which prevent its successful translation into practical clinical settings, are outlined together with the potential solutions. At the end, we share our vision of the evolution of MIP-based electrochemical sensors with an outlook on the future of this promising biosensing technology.

Abstract
Prostate and lung cancers are the most common types of cancer and affect a large part of the population around the world, causing deaths. Therefore, the rapid identification of cancer can profoundly impact reducing cancer-related death rates and protecting human lives. Significant resources have been dedicated to investigating new methods for early disease detection. Cancer biomarkers encompass various biochemical entities, including nucleic acids, proteins, sugars, small metabolites, cytogenetic and cytokinetic parameters, and whole tumor cells in bodily fluids. These tools can be utilized for various purposes, such as risk assessment, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment efficacy, toxicity evaluation, and predicting a return. Due to these versatile and critical purposes, there are widespread studies on the development of new, sensitive, and selective approaches for the determination of cancer biomarkers. This review illustrates the significant lung and prostate cancer biomarkers and their determination utilizing electrochemical sensors, which have the advantage of improved sensitivity, low cost, and simple analysis. Additionally, approaches such as improving sensitivity with nanomaterials and ensuring selectivity with MIPs are used to increase the performance of the sensor. This review aims to overview the most recent electrochemical biosensor applications for determining vital biomarkers of prostate and lung cancers in terms of nanobiosensors and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based biosensors.

Abstract
In the present study, a highly efficient analytical method based on preconcentration of tetracyclines (TCs) in water and milk samples using a magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (Fe3O4/SiO2/MIP) synthesized by means of a novel semi-covalent synthesis for TCs and determination by HPLC-DAD was proposed. Fe3O4/SiO2/MIP showed specific superficial area of 216.0 m2/g, superior to Fe3O4/SiO2/NIP (non-imprinted material) (103.6 m2/g). Using the Fe3O4/SiO2/MIP, the magnetic dispersive solid phase extraction (MDSPE) for four TCs (chlortetracycline, doxycycline, oxytetracycline, and tetracycline) was based on the preconcentration of 40.0 mL of sample (pH 4.0) vortex-assisted with 10 mg of Fe3O4/SiO2/MIP during 60 s. The method presented a limit of detection (LOD) in the range 0.26-0.60 µg/L, and preconcentration factor in the range 52.3-87.4-fold for the TCs. The method was applied to determine TCs in samples of lake water and cow milk with recovery results ranging from 96.0 to 102.0 %.

Abstract
In this work, novel magnetic molecularly imprinted CuMOFs (MMIP-CuMOFs) were synthesized and applied to construct an electrochemical bisphenol A sensor. The constructed sensor used an electrode modified with reduced graphene oxide (RGO/GCE) as the sensing platform to improve its stability and sensitivity. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles in magnetic MOFs simplified the preparation process. Moreover, the combination of CuMOFs and molecular imprinting methodology was beneficial for improving the detection specificity, and the electroactive copper hexacyanoferrate generated by the reaction of Cu2+ in CuMOFs with potassium ferricyanide was used as the signal probe. The sensor showed a good linear relationship in the range of 0.5 to 500 nmol/L, with a low detection limit of 0.18 nmol/L. In addition, the sensor had good selectivity, repeatability (RSD = 2.59 %), and a good recovery rate for actual milk sample detection (99.8-102.49 %). This technique holds great promise for the detection of detrimental substances in food.

Abstract
In this paper, an electrochemical sensor based on a dual recognition strategy of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) and aptamer (Apt) has been designed for the high sensitivity detection of chloramphenicol (CAP). Here, MIPs and Apt have provided dual recognition sites to greatly improve the specific recognition ability of the sensor. Chitosan-multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CS-MWNTs) and AuNPs (gold nanoparticles) have been used for their excellent electrical conductivity. When CAP existed in the detection environment, the imprinted cavities with specific recognition ability bound to CAP through forces such as hydrogen bonds. It hindered the rate of electron transfer and resulted in a decrease in current value. Quantitative detection of CAP could be achieved after analyzing the relationship between the concentration of CAP and the change of current value. After optimizing the experimental parameters, the detection range of the sensor was 10-8 g/L-10-2 g/L with the limit of detection of 3.3 × 10-9 g/L, indicating that the sensor had a high practical application potential.

Abstract
A reduced graphene oxide/molybdenum selenosulfide (rGO/MoSSe) heterojunction was synthesized, and a molecularly imprinted photoelectrochemical sensor for the detection of chlortetracycline was prepared. MoSSe was grown in situ on rGO by a hydrothermal method to form an rGO/MoSSe heterojunction, which acts as the sensitive film of the sensor. Since rGO can promote electron transfer and effectively inhibit electron-hole recombination, it effectively reduces the recombination probability of electrons and holes and improves the photoelectric efficiency, thus enhancing the detection sensitivity of the PEC sensor. The rGO/MoSSe was immobilized on an FTO electrode, and molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were prepared by electropolymerization on the rGO/MoSSe-modified FTO electrode with chlortetracycline as the template molecule and o-phenylenediamine as the functional monomer, so as to construct a molecularly imprinted photoelectrochemical (MIP-PEC) sensor. The determination of chlortetracycline was realized by the strategy of a "gate-controlled effect", and the detection range of the chlortetracycline concentration was 5.0 × 10-13-5 × 10-9 mol L-1 with a detection limit of 1.57 × 10-13 mol L-1. The sensor has been applied to the determination of chlortetracycline in animal-derived food samples.

Abstract
The monitoring of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) in medical waste is of great significance for the prevention of the spread of infectious diseases and the treatment of environmental pollutants in medical waste. Highly sensitive and selective detection methods are urgently needed due to the low content of sEVs in waste samples and the complex sample composition. Herein, a glycosyl-imprinted electrochemical sensor was constructed and a novel strategy for rapid, sensitive, and selective sEVs detection was proposed. The characteristic trisaccharide at the end of the glycosyl chain of the glycoprotein carried on the surface of the sEVs was used as the template molecule. The glycosyl-imprinted polymer films was then prepared by electropolymerization with o-phenylenediamine (o-PD) and 3-aminophenylboronic acid (m-APBA) as functional monomers. sEVs were captured by the imprinted cavities through the recognition and adsorption of glycosyl chains of glycoproteins on sEVs. The m-APBA molecule also acted as a signal probe and was then attached on the immobilized glycoprotein on the surface of sEVs by boric acid affinity. The electrochemical signal of m-APBA was amplificated due to the abundant glycoproteins on the surface of sEVs. The detection range of the sensor was 2.1 × 104 to 8.7 × 107 particles/mL, and the limit of detection was 1.7 × 104 particles/mL. The sensor was then applied to the determination of sEVs in medical wastewater and urine, which showed good selectivity, low detection cost, and good sensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The detection of disease biomarkers in biological samples plays an important role in early diagnosis and treatment of carcinoid tumor. However, due to the complexity of biological samples and the extremely low concentration of disease biomarkers, sample pretreatment is still the bottleneck of achieving accurate quantitative determination. In this work, new hydrophilic molecularly imprinted resin-hexagonal boron nitride (HMIR-h-BN) composites were developed and used as a new solid phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent for selective detection of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), a biomarker of carcinoid tumor, in urine. RESULTS Twenty-two types of HMIR-h-BN were successfully synthesized through growing hydrophilic molecularly imprinted resin on surface of activated two-dimensional h-BN nanosheets, and preparation parameters affecting the adsorption performance of HMIR-h-BN were investigated and optimized through adsorption experiments. HMIR-h-BN #19 (the ratio of resorcinol to hexamethylenetetramine: 6:3; the dosage of h-BN: 300 mg; the dosage of dummy template: 0.12 mmol; the imprinting time: 4 h) has demonstrated to be the optimal material for efficient separation and extraction of 5-HIAA. Combined with HPLC-UV, the limit of detection and the limit of quantification of 5-HIAA in real urine samples were 9.4 ng mL-1 and 31.3 ng mL-1, respectively, the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.9996 in the linear range of 0.1-300 μg mL-1 and the relative recoveries ranged from 86.9 % to 97.7 % with RSD ≤5.1 %. Moreover, after being processed by HMIR-h-BN-SPE, there are no interferences from other peaks at the peak position of 5-HIAA. SIGNIFICANCE The HMIR-h-BN composite has been demonstrated to be capable of selective extraction of 5-HIAA from urine samples and have a significant purification effect. Based on the established HMIR-h-BN-SPE-HPLC-UV method, accurate quantitative determination of 5-HIAA in urine samples was achieved, which is expected to be applied in the early diagnostic of carcinoid tumor.

Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by tetracycline antibiotics is a major concern of global public health. Here, a novel and portable molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence (MIECL) sensor based on smartphones for highly sensitive detection of chlortetracycline (CTC) has been successfully established. The high-performance ECL emitter of biomass carbon (BC) encapsulated CdZnTeS (CdZnTeS@BC) was successfully synthesized by hydrothermal. The enhanced ECL performance was ascribed to the introduction of the BC and increased the overall electrical conductivity of the nanoemitter, as well as increased the number of sulfur vacancies and doping on the surface of the emitter based on density functional theory calculations. An aniline-CTC molecular imprinted polymer was synthesized on the surface of the CdZnTeS@BC modified electrode by in-situ electropolymerization. The decrease in MIECL signal was attributed to the increase in impedance effect. The MIECL nanoplatform enabled a wide linear relationship in the range of 0.05-100 μmol/L with a detection limit of 0.029 μmol/L for spectrometer sensors. Interestingly, the light emitted during the MIECL reaction can be captured by a smartphone. Thus, machine learning was used to screen the photos that were taken, and color analysis was carried out on the screened photos by self-developed software, thus achieving a portable, convenient, and intelligent sensing mode. Finally, the sensor obtains satisfactory results in the detection of actual samples, with no significant differences from those of liquid chromatography.

Abstract
In this paper, a new dimode scattering spectral method for rapid detection of ultratrace melamine (ML) in dairy products was established by coupling nanosurface molecular imprinting technology with nanocatalytic amplification reaction of liquid crystal particles. It was found that liquid crystal cholesteryl butyrate (CBU) nanosurface imprinted polymers (CBU@MIP) not only recognized ML but also catalyzed the nano indicator reaction of HAuCl4-sodium formate to produce gold nanoparticles with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) effect. When ML was added, it specifically combined with CBU@MIP to form CBU@MIP-ML conjugates with strong catalytic activity, and SERS and RRS signals increased linearly with the detection limits of 0.0072 pmol/L and 0.093 pmol/L respectively. The method was applied to the determination of ML in dairy products and plastic tablewares with relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.2-4.4 % and 1.6-4.7 %, and recovery of 95.4 %-108.3 % and 95.9-108.6 % respectively.

Abstract
The overuse of pefloxacin (PEF) leaves residues in foods. Therefore, the development of robust analytical techniques for the selective detection of PEF is of great importance. In this study, a highly stable electrochemical sensing platform has been constructed, using molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-coated gold nanoparticle/black phosphorus nanocomposites (BPNS-AuNPs), for the selective detection of PEF. BPNS-AuNPs significantly enhance the black phosphorus (BP) stability and electrochemical activity and offer a larger surface area to accommodate more imprinted sites for selective PEF binding. MIP/BPNS-AuNPs exhibit a broad linear detection range (0.005-10 μM), low detection limit (0.80 nM), and high sensitivity (3.199 μA μM-1). The MIP/BPNS-AuNPs show a high binding affinity for PEF, even in the presence of structural analogs, and maintain stable voltammetric signals for at least 35 d. The MIP sensor exhibits consistent high sensitivity in the detection of PEF in real milk and orange juice samples.

Abstract
In this work, a high-performance molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) sensor for the determination of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) was fabricated by using trypsin as a template removal reagent. Gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) designed for electrode modification accelerate the heterogeneous electron transfer rate to enhance the sensitivity of the prepared sensor. With enzymatic hydrolysis, β-LG templates were effectively digested into short peptides without damage to the MIP so that the imprinted cavities of the MIP were preserved with a complete spatial structure exhibiting high selectivity. Based on the optimization of the protein removal time and pH, the prepared MIP electrochemical sensor could recognize β-LG in the range of 4-100 ng/mL with a low detection limit (3.58 ng/mL). The sensor also expressed excellent selectivity and was successfully applied to real sample detection. The results demonstrate that the proposed MIP electrochemical sensor may be a promising candidate for camel milk adulteration detection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tetracycline (TC), a cost-effective broad-spectrum antibacterial drug, has been excessively utilized in the livestock and poultry industry, leading to a serious overabundance of TC in livestock wastewater. However, conventional analytical methods such as liquid chromatography and gas chromatography face challenges in achieving sensitive detection of trace amounts of TC in complex substrates. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a highly sensitive and anti-interference analytical method for the detection of tetracycline in livestock wastewater. RESULTS A porphyrin-based MOF (PCN-224)-confined carbon dots (CDs) material (CDs@PCN-224) was synthesized by a "bottle-around-ship" strategy. The reduced carrier migration distance is conducive to the separation of electron-hole pairs and enhanced the photocurrent signal due to the tight coupling of CDs and PCN-224. Further, molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized by rapid in-situ UV-polymerization and employed as a recognition element. The specific recognition of the target by imprinted cavities blocks electron transfer, resulting in a "turn off" response signal, thus realizing the selective detection of TC. Under optimal conditions, the constructed MIP-PEC cathodic sensor detected 1.00 × 10-12 M to 1.00 × 10-7 M of TC sensitively, with a limit of detection of 3.72 × 10-13 M. In addition, the proposed MIP-PEC sensor demonstrated good TC detection performance in actual livestock wastewater. SIGNIFICANCE The strategy based on MOF pore-confined quantum dots can effectively enhance the photocurrent response of the photosensitive substrate. Simultaneously, the MIP constructed by in-situ rapid UV-polymerization showed excellent anti-interference and reusable properties. This work provides a promising MIP-PEC cathodic sensing method for the rapid and sensitive detection of antibiotics in complex-matrix environmental samples.

Abstract
Rutin (RUT), a natural flavonoid with various beneficial pharmacological actions such as cardioprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, etc., is found in the content of many plants that are consumed daily. Due to the healthful effects, RUT is also included in the composition of various herbal supplement samples. Therefore, it is highly important to develop a sensor with high selectivity and sensitivity to determine RUT in complex samples. In this study, it was aimed to take advantage of the cheap, easy, and sensitive nature of electrochemistry and, in addition, to improve the selectivity. For this purpose, the functional monomer selected in the fabricated molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was N-methacryloyl-L-aspartic acid (MA-Asp) while photopolymerization (PP) was applied as the polymerization route. After completing critical optimization steps, the developed sensor (MA-Asp@RUT/MIP-GCE) was characterized electrochemically and morphologically. As a result of analytical performance evaluation in standard solution, the linear response of the sensor was found in the concentration range between 1 and 10 pM with a detection limit of 0.269 pM. The recovery studies from plant extract and commercial herbal supplement samples emphasized accuracy and applicability. In imprinting factor studies figuring out quite good selectivity, molecules with a structure similar to RUT were selected as competitors to prove the affinity of the sensor against RUT. Consequently, the MA-Asp@RUT/MIP-GCE sensor offers a more sensitive and selective method thanks to its indirect analysis approach and also stands out with the diversity of its real sample application compared to other available studies.

Abstract
Measuring the levels of the biomarkers vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) and 5-Hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA) is a valuable tool for clinical diagnosis not only of neuroblastoma or carcinoid syndrome, but also of essential hypertension, depression, migraine, and Tourette's syndrome. Herein, we explore using graphene quantum dots (GQDs) coated with molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as novel dual-imprinted sensors for selective and simultaneous determination of VMA and 5-HIAA in urine and plasma samples. The dual-MIP was successfully coated on the GQDs core via co-polymerization of (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), acting as functional and cross-linking monomers, respectively. In addition, we successfully created the dual imprinted VMA and 5-HIAA shell on the GQDs' core via a one-pot synthesis. We fabricated a facile and ready-to-use Origami three-dimensional electrochemical paper-based analytical device (Origami 3D-ePAD) for simultaneous determination of VMA and 5-HIAA using a GQDs@dual-MIP modified graphene electrode (GQDs@dual-MIP/SPGE). The Origami 3D-ePAD was designed to form a voltammetric cell on a three-layer foldable sheet with several advantages. For example, they were quickly assembled and enhanced the device's physical durability with the hydrophobic backup sheet. The developed dual imprinted Origami 3D-ePAD leads to substantially enhanced sensitivity and selectivity to electrochemical signal amplification generated from increasing the electrode-specific surface area, electrocatalytic activity, and the large numbers of dual imprinted sites for VMA and 5-HIAA detection. The synthetic recognition sites are highly selective for 5-HIAA and VMA molecules with an imprinting factor of 8.46 and 7.10, respectively. Quantitative analysis relying on square wave voltammetry reveals excellent linear dynamic ranges of around 0.001-25 μM, with detection limits of 0.023 nM for 5-HIAA and 0.047 nM for VMA (3Sb, n = 3). The Origami 3D-ePAD provides high accuracy and precision (i.e., recovery values of 5-HIAA ranged from 82.98 to 98.40 %, and VMA ranged from 83.28 to 104.39 %), and RSD less than 4.37 %) in urine and plasma samples without any evidence of interference. Hence, it is well suited as a facile and ready-to-use disposable device for point-of-care testing. It is straightforward, cost-effective, reproducible, and stable. Furthermore, it allows for rapid analysis (analysis time ∼20s) useful in medical diagnosis and other relevant fields.
