Molecularly Imprinted Polymer-Based Non-Enzymatic Electrochemical Receptor for Detection of Organophosphate Pesticide: Monocrotophos

Key Points

• Detection of monocrotophos achieved through a novel electrochemical approach, showing effective sensitivity.
• Electrochemical techniques demonstrate a detection limit as low as 1 µM for monocrotophos concentration.
• Molecularly imprinted polymers provide specificity and high selectivity for organophosphate pesticides.
• Potential environmental monitoring applications are highlighted, requiring further validation in real samples.
