Separation and enrichment of sibiskoside from Sibiraea angustat with magnetic surface dummy template molecularly...

In this work, a novel strategy was developed for separation and enrichment of sibiskoside by dummy molecular imprinting technology and magnetic separation technology. The structural analogue geniposide was selected as the dummy template, using 4-vinylpyridine as the functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linking agent, and acetonitrile as the porogen. The molecularly imprinted layer was formed on the surface of the magnetic carrier to prepare dummy template molecularly imprinted polymers (DMIPs) with a core-shell structure. The DMIPs were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Vibration sample magnetometer (VSM). The results of adsorption kinetics experiments and isothermal adsorption experiments showed that DMIPs can reach adsorption equilibrium in a short period of time and the maximum adsorption capacity can reach 14.67 mg/g. The imprinting factor was 2.08. Compared with the andrographolide, polydatin, arbutin, caffeic acid, neohesperidin dihydrochalcone and quercetin, DMIPs have good adsorption capacity for the sibiskoside. And the reusability was better. After the adsorption of DMIPs, the purity of sibiskoside in the crude extracts from Sibiraea angustata increased to 78%. It provided a basis for the further development and utilization of Sibiraea angustata as well as the separation and enrichment of monoterpenes.
