    Abstract:
    Highly selective and efficient magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) were prepared using Fe3O4@SiO2 as a magnetic supporter, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxy-silane (MPS) as a silane coupling agent, DIS as a template, methacrylic acid (MAA) as a functional monomer and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as a cross-linker for the extraction of trace residuals of the synthetic estrogen dienestrol (DIS) in seawater, which is a concern worldwide for its endocrine disruption and carcinogenic danger to human health. The obtained MMIPs were demonstrated to have spherical morphologies, core-shell structures, large binding capacities, high efficiency and selectivity. These were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and adsorption experiments. Owing to the specific binding sites, the MMIPs exhibited an almost three times higher adsorption capacity towards DIS (Qmax=4.68mgg-1) than magnetic molecularly non-imprinted polymers (MNIPs) (Qmax=1.72mgg-1). DIS in spiked seawater samples from the Weihai Bay of China was extracted and enriched by MMIPs, and satisfactory recoveries (87.3%-96.4%) with low relative standard deviation (RSD) values (2.03%-5.18%, n=5) were obtained. The limit of detection (LOD) of the method obtained was 0.16μgL-1, and the limit of quantitation was 0.52μgL-1 after MMIPs. No significant deterioration of the adsorption capacity of the MMIPs was observed after six rounds of regeneration. The results further demonstrated the applicability of the MMIPs method, a simple and straightforward method for the extraction and enrichment of DIS in seawater without any time-consuming procedures.
