Abstract: Trietazine was selectively separated from aqueous solution containing the competitor molecule cyanazine, which is similar in size and shape to the template molecule. Structural features of the molecular imprinted column was figured out by scanning electron microscopy. The influence of the mobile phase composition, applied electrical field and pH of the mobile phase on the recognition of trietazine by the imprinted monolithic polymer has been evaluated, and the imprint effect in the trietazine-imprinted monolithic polymer was demonstrated by imprinting factor. The optimized monolithic column resulted in separation of trietazine from structurally related competitor molecule, cyanazine. In addition, fast separation was obtained within 6 min by applying higher electrical field, with the electrophoretic mobility of 2.97 x 10-8 m2V-1s-1 at pH 11.0.
