  • Title: Design of imprinting matrix for dual template sensing via electropolymerized polythiophene films.
    Author: Singh R, Singh M.
    Journal: J Mol Recognit; 2022 Aug; 35(8):e2962. PubMed ID: 35561008.
    Abstract:
    This work presents the design of 3-thiophene acetic acid (3-TAA) polymer matrix based molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composite for sensitive and selective detection of antipyrine (AnP) and ethionamide (ETH) simultaneously. Dual drug embedded molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based electrochemical sensor was developed via electropolymerization of 3-TAA. AnP and ETH were embedded inside a polymer matrix based on their 3-D orientation and interaction(s) with functional monomer(s). Their extraction from polymeric matrix generates cavities complimentary to shape and size of AnP and ETH. The extraction of templates was confirmed by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) as well as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The designed sensor selectively captures and produces the electrochemical signal for imprinted drugs. The electrochemical behaviour of AnP and ETH was investigated by DPV technique. The sensitivity for both drug molecules was commendable on a single polymeric composite with RGO on GC electrode (LOD of 0.117 μM for AnP and 0.15 μM for ETH). Also, the sensor exhibited excellent selectivity towards AnP and ETH in the presence of other analogous interferent molecules. Thus, the designed sensor showed high sensitivity as well as high selectivity for imprinted dual drug molecules on a single platform.
