Resumo
A magnetic graphite-epoxy composite (m-GEC) electrochemical sensor is presented based on magnetic imprinted polymer (mag-MIP) to determine homocysteine (Hcy). Mag-MIP was synthesized via precipitation polymerization, using functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4) together with the template molecule (Hcy), the functional monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), and the structural monomer trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM). For mag-NIP (magnetic non-imprinted polymer), the procedure was the same in the absence of Hcy. Morphological and structural properties of the resultant mag-MIP and mag-NIP were examined using TEM, FT-IR, and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer. Under optimized conditions, the m-GEC/mag-MIP sensor showed a linear range of 0.1–2 µmol L−1, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.030 µmol L−1. In addition, the proposed sensor responded selectively to Hcy compared to several interferents present in biological samples. The recovery values determined by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were close to 100% for natural and synthetic samples, indicating good method accuracy. The developed electrochemical sensor proves to be a suitable device for determining Hcy, with advantages related to magnetic separation and electrochemical analysis.
