A deltamethrin-imprinted polymer (MIP1) was prepared using bis(-6-O-butanediacid monoester)-β-cyclodextrin (BBA-β-CD) as the functional monomer and toluene 2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) as the cross-linker. In comparison to the molecularly imprinted polymer where β-CD was applied as the functional monomer (MIP2), MIP1 showed a higher specific binding capacity (ΔCP) and an improved imprinting factor (IF) for deltamethrin. The selective recognition experiments demonstrated that compared to MIP2, MIP1 could better recognize its template over other substrates that had similar chemica...
