Target protein-magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) conjugates, i.e. alpha-glucosidase-MNP and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B)-MNP, were prepared and evaluated for the first time for affinity extraction of enzyme inhibitors from herbal extracts. Four ligands extracted from Granati pericarpium were identified by ESI-MS analysis. In vitro tests indicated that they inhibited both a-glucosidase and PTP1B, two important target proteins for diabetic treatment.
