Zusammenfassung:Imbalances in hemoglobin (Hb) levels can lead to conditions such as anemia or polycythemia, emphasizing the importance of precise Hb extraction from blood. To address this, a novel synthetic imprinted polymer was meticulously developed for capturing and separating Hb. Poly­(acrylamide-vinylimidazole) nanopolymer (poly­(AAm-VIM)) was synthesized using acrylamide and vinyl imidazole as functional monomers through surfactant-free emulsion polymerization. Characterization using FTIR, particle size, zeta potential, and SEM ensured the polymer’s structure. The Hb-imprinted nanopolymer (Hb-poly­(AAm-VIM)) demonstrated notable specificity, with a calculated Hb-specific adsorption value (Qmax) of 3.7377 mg/g in a medium containing 2.5 mg/mL Hb. The molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) exhibited approximately 5 times higher Hb adsorption than the nonimprinted polymer (NIP). Under the same conditions, the imprinted nanopolymer displayed 2.39 and 2.17 times greater selectivity for Hb over competing proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lysozyme (Lys), respectively. Also, SDS-PAGE analysis results confirmed the purification of Hb by the molecularly imprinted nanopolymer. These results underscore the heightened specificity and efficacy of the molecularly imprinted nanopolymer in selectively targeting Hb atoms among other proteins. Incorporating such polymers is justified by their notable affinity, cost-effectiveness, and facile production. This research contributes valuable insights into optimizing synthetic imprinted polymers for efficient Hb extraction, with potential in medical diagnostics and treatment applications.
