5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-HMF) is considered one of the main quality indexes of various food products. Its metabolism in humans can potentially lead to carcinogenic compounds. Metallic ions such as Zn, Mg, Mn, and Fe have been reported to enhance 5-HMF formation. Recently, studies on adsorbents that can extract specific organic and inorganic substances with one adsorbent have been conducted. However, simultaneous analysis of organic and inorganic materials typically requires distinct pre-treatment and analytical methods, which increase a lot of labor and cost. In this study, hybrid imprinted polymer (HIP) by mixing 5- HMF imprinted polymer (FIP) and zinc ion imprinted polymer (ZIIP) were generated to extract two analytes, Zn ion and 5-HMF, simultaneously. Physicochemical characterization of HIP was conducted by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and sorption tests. Extraction conditions including adsorbent mixing ratio, adsorbate mixing range, and equilibrium time were optimized. Freundlich adsorption model was as the best-fitting isotherm model to elucidate the adsorption mechanism. Affinity of Zn ion and 5-HMF on HIP was superior to non-HIP. In conclusion, HIP showed reasonable feasibility that could be used as an adsorbent to be used for simultaneous extraction of organic and inorganic compounds present in the sample.
