Abstract

Magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years as multifunctional materials suitable for use in the separation and purification fields. When modified with a specific functional polymer, MMIPs can be used to extract chemicals from a matrix and concentrate them based on specific recognition features, enabling more convenient retrieval of analytes using an external magnetic field. This review covers the preparation, characterization, and applications of various MMIPs, with particular focus on the technique used to coat such MMIPs with functional groups. A comprehensive overview of the applications of MMIPs to electrochemistry, food, and environmental analysis, and medicine is also presented. Furthermore, the problems and trends associated with MMIP-based applications are discussed.
