A simple and selective thallium imprinted polymer was synthesized as a chemical modifier for the stripping voltammetric determination of Tl ions. The polymerization process (bulk polymerization) was performed with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (crosslinking monomer) and methacrylic acid (functional monomer) in the presence of 2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (initiator). The electrochemical method was based on the accumulation of thallium ions at the surface of a modified carbon paste electrode with Tl imprinted polymer and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. After preconcentration process, the voltammetric measurements were carried out via electrolysis of the accumulated Tl ions in a closed circuit. Under the optimized conditions, a linear response range from 3.0 to 240 ng mL(-1) was obtained. The detection limit and RSD (100.0 ng mL(-1) of Tl) were calculated as 0.76 ng mL(-1) and ±2.7%, respectively. The suggested modified electrode has good characteristics such as excellent selectivity, high sensitivity and suitable stability. Also, it was successfully applied for the electrochemical determination of trace amounts of Tl in the environmental and biological samples.

A novel strategy for cytochrome c selective recognition assisted with cucurbit[6]uril by host-guest interaction via N-terminal epitope imprinting and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization was developed. N-terminal nonapeptide of cytochrome c (GI-9) was used as the epitope template to achieve highly selective recognition of cytochrome c. As a common supramolecule in recent years, cucurbit[6]uril can encapsulate the butyrammonium group of lysine residue to capture the peptide and improve the corresponding spatial orientation by the host-guest interaction for GI-9 or cytochrome c recognition.

Indoprofen (INP) comprises two enantiomers, R- and S-, whose high pharmacological efficacy is realized only in the case of the separated enantiomers. A newly synthesized poly(acrylonitrile-co-divinylbenzene) (PANB)-based sorbent with selective affinity to the S-enantiomer of INP was applied to separate INP racemate. The synthesis was performed by suspension polymerization with low-crosslinked PANB microparticles and by reaction of the inserted nitriles with 1-amino-1H-pyrrole-2,5‑dione (Ma-NH).

In the present study, a novel voltammetric sensor based on a boron-doped copper oxide/graphene (B-CuO-Gr) nanocomposite and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was developed for the detection of paclobutrazol (PAC) in apple and orange juice samples. The B-CuO-Gr nanocomposite was prepared using sol-gel and calcination methods. After modifying glassy carbon electrodes with the B-CuO-Gr nanocomposite, PAC-imprinted electrodes were prepared in the presence of 100.

Dimethoate (DIM) is one of the most extensively applied organophosphorus pesticides (OPs), which is used to boost farm productivity due to its high insecticidal efficacy. However, the excessive use of DIM can result in the extensive contamination of soil, groundwater and food. Monitoring of DIM in environmental and food samples is crucial in view of its potential health risks and environmental hazards from excessive residues.

In this paper, a novel molecularly imprinted polymer membrane modified glassy carbon electrode for electrochemical sensors (MIP-OH-MWCNTs-GCE) for epinephrine (EP) was successfully prepared by a gel-sol method using an optimized functional monomer oligosilsesquioxane-AlO sol-ITO composite sol (ITO-POSS-AlO). Hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OH-MWCNTs) were introduced during the modification of the electrodes, and the electrochemical behavior of EP on the molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensors was probed by the differential pulse velocity (DPV) method. The experimental conditions were optimized.
