Abstract
Ethyl carbamate (EC) is a carcinogen widely found in the fermentation process of Baijiu. Herein, we construct a molecularly imprinted polymers/MXene/cobalt (II) based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (MIP/MXene/ZIF-67) nano-enzyme sensor for the detection of EC during Baijiu production. The ZIF-67 is synthesized in situ on the MXene nanosheets to provide a superior catalytic activity to H2O2 and amplify the electrochemical signal. The MIP is prepared by the polymerization reaction to recognize EC. Owing to the interaction between EC and EC-MIP, the interferences are effectively eliminated, greatly improving the accuracy of the expected outcome. This approach attains an ultrasensitive assay of EC ranging from 8.9 μg/L to 44.5 mg/L with detection limit of 0.405 μg/L. The accuracy of this method is confirmed by the recovery experiment with good recoveries from 95.07% to 107.41%. This method is applied in natural EC analyses, and the results are consistent with certified gas chromatograph- mass spectrometer.
