In this study, the curcumin imprinted and the non-imprinted poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-L-tryptophan) (poly(HEMA-MATrp)) nanoparticle based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) nanosensors were prepared for the detection of curcumin and characterized by zeta-size analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. After, the curcumin imprinted and the non-imprinted nanoparticles are attached on the surface of SPR chips. The curcumin imprinted and the non-imprinted SPR nanosensors are characterized by using atomic force microscope, ellipsometer, and contact angle measurements.
