Abstract

A new molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based disposable electrochemical sensor for dipyridamole (DIP) determination was obtained. The sensor was rapidly prepared by potentiodynamic electrochemical polymerization on a pencil graphite electrode (PGE) using curcumin (CUR) as a functional monomer and DIP as a template molecule. After the optimization of the conditions (pH, monomer-template ratio, scan rate, number of cyclic voltammetric cycles applied in the electro-polymerization process and extraction time of the template molecule) for MIP formation, DIP voltammetric behavior at the modified electrode (MIP_PGE) was investigated. DIP oxidation took place in a pH-dependent, irreversible mixed diffusion-adsorption controlled process. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetry (AdSDPV) were used to quantify DIP from pharmaceutical and tap water samples. Under optimized conditions (Britton-Robinson buffer at pH = 3.29), the obtained linear ranges were 5.00 × 10-8-1.00 × 10-5 mol/L and 5.00 × 10-9-1.00 × 10-7 mol/L DIP for DPV and AdSDPV, respectively. The limits of detection of the methods were 1.47 × 10-8 mol/L for DPV and 3.96 × 10-9 mol/L DIP for AdSDPV.
