Abstract
A new biomimetic bulk acoustic wave sensor based on molecularly imprinted microspheres (MIM) technique was described. The sensing materials were synthesized by precipitation polymerization. By using the Scatchard analysis, the equilibrium dissociation constant K~D~ and the apparent maximum number Q~max~ of the binding sites were calculated to be 3.70 mmolΒ·L^β1^ and 9.11 ΞΌmolΒ·g^β1^, respectively. The sensor exhibited a sensitive response to the template compound (dipyridamole) in liquid phase with a detection limit of 2 Γ 10β^9^ molΒ· L^β1^. The recoveries of the sensor were 95.1%β105.4%. Studies presented in this paper show that the stability of this sensor is excellent. The sensor has been applied successfully to the determination of dipyridamole in human urine.

Over the past two decades, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have attracted broad interest from scientists engaged in sensor development. This attention can be explained by the serious potential advantages of using MIPs in place of natural receptors and enzymes such as their superior stability,
