ABSTRACT

Degradable molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) with affinity for S-propranolol were prepared by the copolymerization of methacrylic acid as functional monomer and a disulfide-containing cross-linker, bis(2-methacryloyloxyethyl)disulfide (DSDMA), using bulk polymerization or high dilution polymerization for nanogels synthesis. The specificity and the selectivity of DSDMA-based molecularly imprinted polymers toward S-propranolol were studied in batch binding experiments, and their binding properties were compared to a traditional ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA)-based MIP. Nanosized MIPs prepared with DSDMA as crosslinker could be degraded into lower molecular weight linear polymers by cleaving the disulfide bonds and thus reversing cross-linking using different reducing agents (NaBH4, DTT, GSH). Turbidity, viscosity, polymer size and IR-spectra were measured to study the polymer degradation. The loss of specific recognition and binding capacity of S-propranolol was also observed after MIP degradation. This phenomenon was applied to modulate the release properties of the MIP. In presence of GSH at its intracellular concentration, the S-propranolol release was higher, showing that these materials could potentially be applied as intracellular controlled drug delivery system.
