摘要

A voltammetric sensor for melamine (MEL) was prepared from molecularly imprinted nanohybrids (MINBs). A dopamine modified poly-gamma-glutamic acid copolymer (y-PGA-DA) and MEL were self-assembled into MEL/gamma-PGA-DA nanoparticles (NPs) in aqueous solution via weak interactions, followed by adding an aqueous AgNO3 solution into the mixture. The Ag+ was adsorbed in the MEL/gamma-PGA-DA NPs and spontaneously reduced to Ag NPs by the dopamine moieties of gamma-PGA-DA, forming Ag/MEL/gamma-PGADA MINBs, which were then cast on a gold electrode to form a MINBs film. The MEL was removed by electrolysis via catalysis of Ag NPs at a constant potential of 1.4 V in phosphate buffer saline solution, to obtain a voltammetric sensor for MEL. The sensor responded linearly to MEL in the concentration range of 5 x 10(-18) to 5 x 10(-7) mol L-1. Compared to other published molecularly imprinted polymer sensors for sensing MEL, the prepared MINBs sensor had much wider detection range with lower detection limit.
