A novel electrochemical sensor based on molecularly imprinted polymer-modified C-ZIF67@Ni for highly sensitive and selective determination of carbendazim.

In this work, we propose a two-step coating method, combining C-ZIF67@Ni with molecular imprinting polymer (MIP), to develop a high-sensitivity and high-selectivity Carbendazim (CBD) electrochemical sensor.
