This study concerns the development of two molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) based electrochemical sensors for glyphosate detection. In both cases polypyrrole (PPy) was chosen as matrix and glyphosate molecules were the templates. The main difference between the two strategies is related to the investigated electrode: gold surface in the first case, and ZnO nanorods vertically grown on ITO diazonium modified substrates in the second case. The limits of detection (LOD) of these sensors were about 10 −13 M and 10 −10 M respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
