Design and preparation of self-driven BSA surface imprinted tubular nanofibers and their specific adsorption performance

This chapter summarizes the surface protein imprinting technique and its applications from three aspects: functional carrier, carrier material surface design, and construction, and the composition of the imprinted layer polymer, and proposes the concept of self-driven protein imprinting. In addition, the application of multifunctional tubular carbon nanofibers in the field of protein imprinting technique was introduced through protein imprinting on the surface of tubular carbon nanofibers, magnetic tubular carbon nanofibers, and manganese dioxide-loaded tubular carbon nanofibers. The unique structure of the fibers endows the imprinted materials with self-driven adsorption properties, which enables the imprinted materials to have a high adsorption capacity and ultrafast adsorption rate for the target protein.
