Cis-diol-containing species (CDCSs) including nucleosides, saccharides, glycoproteins/glycopeptides, cell and bacteria, etc., have been recognized as major targets in various research frontiers, such as environment and food analysis, biological omics and bioanalysis. Highly efficient separation and enrichment of CDCSs from biosample matrixes is a prerequisite. In recent years, boronate affinity materials serve as adsorbents for CDCSs have drawn immense attention in various applications. Coupled with engineered magnetic composites, boronate affinity-based magnetic composites (BAMCs) hold great potential in application owing to their unique properties. The purpose of this review is to depict the state-of the art development of exploiting BAMCs as adsorbents for the selective enrichment of CDCSs. For the sake of clarification, the fundamental development of BAMCs, as well as their application, were concluded. Particularly, the effects of fabrication strategies on the performance of BAMCs have been discussed. In addition, the review also covers the application of BAMCs in bioanalysis.

顺式二醇含核种（CDCS），包括核苷，糖，糖蛋白/糖肽，细胞和细菌等，已被视为各种研究领域的主要目标，例如环境和食品分析，生物组学和生物分析。从生物样品基质中高效分离和富集CDCS是先决条件。近年来，硼酸盐亲和材料作为CDCS的吸附剂在各种应用中引起了极大的关注。结合工程磁性复合材料，基于硼酸酯亲和力的磁性复合材料（BAMC）由于其独特的性能而在应用中具有巨大的潜力。本文的目的是描述利用BAMC作为吸附剂选择性富集CDCS的最新技术发展。为了澄清起见，总结了BAMC的基本发展及其应用。特别是，讨论了制造策略对BAMC性能的影响。此外，该评价还涵盖了BAMC在生物分析中的应用。
