Abstract
AbstractA new sensor was fabricated for the determination of ketamine (Ket) in urine samples based on enhanced electrochemiluminescence (EECL) behavior of luminol on a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with the conductive molecularly imprinted polymer (CMIP) film. The FESEM technique was applied to demonstrate the rod shape morphology of CMIP. Unlike the common luminol system, EECL signal of luminol no need to addition of hydrogen peroxide and it might find application in efforts to avoid instability of hydrogen peroxide or its interference with the analytes of interest. The EECL emission has been optimized by an investigation of the applied potentials, electrochemical polymerization conditions, template and modifier concentrations, and the pH solution. Under the optimum conditions, the EECL signal depended linearly on the Ket concentration within a range from 0.1 to 1.25 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.08 μM. The sensor exhibited very good recovery percentages ranging from 92% to 101% in urine samples, while precisions were ≤3%. These results suggested that the proposed sensor would be applicable for analysis Ket in complex matrixes without interfering of other drugs (anesthetics) and thus has the potential to be used in clinical application.
