A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) selective for TCA was prepared in three porogens (hexane, acetonitrile, and dichloromethane) of varying polarities using non-covalent molecular imprinting techniques. Target rebinding to the MIP was found to be most effective in its porogenic solvent and highest in dichloromethane (imprinting factor = 3.65). Competitive binding assays performed against a range of close structural analogues demonstrated a preference for the target molecule. 2010-04-27T06:39:04.259Z ]]>
