Novel composite nanomaterials based on magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers for selective extraction and determination of rutin in fruit juice

In this work, with the attempt to further improve the selectivity, magnetism and loading proportion of existing adsorbents, a novel composite (MGO/MHNTs@MIPs) was synthesized by electrostatically combining molecularly imprinted polymer based on the surface of magnetic halloysite nanotubes (MHNTs@MIPs) with magnetic graphene oxide (MGO). Then some characterizations were done to prove its successful synthesis. Besides, the bonding experiment showed that it possessed a loading capacity of up to 132 mg·g −1 , and the adsorption behavior of MGO/MHNTs@MIPs was elucidated by Langmuir isotherm model and Pseudo-second order model. By comparing its adsorption capacity to analogues, we concluded that the MGO/MHNTs@MIPs with the MHNTs@MIPs as basic elements exhibited higher selectivity (imprinting factor = 2.25) than that of MGO/MHNTs@NIPs based on MHNTs@NIPs for template rutin. Furthermore, a series of solid phase extraction conditions were optimized, and then the materials were used for the extraction and detection of rutin in fruit juice under the optimal conditions.
