Factors that affected selective separation and adsorption of the artificial receptors, such as the amount of template, the types of functional monomer and porogen solvents, and the molar ratio of template/functional monomer/cross-linker were optimized. The artificial receptors were also characterized using fourier transformed infrared, scanning electron microscope, thermal gravimetric analysis and physical property measurement systems. Multiple interactions between template and SMMIPs led to larger binding capacities, faster binding kinetics, quicker separation abilities and more efficient selectivity than the surface magnetic nonimprinted polymers (SMNIPs). The SMMIPs were successfully applied to capture potential nNOS–PSD-95 uncouplers from complex samples, and eight compounds were seized and confirmed rapidly when combined with HPLC and MS. The detection of the new nNOS–PSD-95 uncouplers ...
