Abstract

Salbutamol (SAL) is one of the most widely abused feed additives in animal husbandry. Selective enrichment of SAL from complex biological samples is a key step for the analysis of SAL. Herein, we present SAL-imprinted magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as an ideal sorbent for selective enrichment of SAL. The SAL-imprinted MNPs were prepared according to the newly reported boronate affinity oriented surface imprinting. The prepared imprinted MNPs exhibited several significant advantages, such as excellent selectivity towards SAL, superb tolerance to interferences, fast binding equilibrium and easy manipulation, which made the obtained imprinted MNPs an ideal sorbent for selective enrichment. The feasibility of SAL-imprinted MNPs for real samples was well demonstrated by the analysis of trace SAL in pig liver. Because of their highly desirable properties, the SAL-imprinted MNPs could find more applications in the analysis of SAL.
