Abstract

In the present study, novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanocomposite films were prepared for the detection of porcine double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA) in food samples. A fragment of dsDNA from the pork mitochondrial genome was chosen as a template molecule for porcine identification. The molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanocomposite films of polypyrrole-TiO2 (PPy/TiO2) were synthesized electrochemically on the surface of indium-tin-oxide (ITO) glass electrode. A strong voltammetric (DPV) response was observed for capturing dsDNA from the samples containing porcine. The batch rebinding experiments revealed that PPy/TiO2 MIP possessed excellent binding capacity (Q = 87.44%) and a high imprint factor (2.30) than non-imprinted polymers (NIPs). The selectivity experiments indicated that MIP had excellent recognition selectivity for porcine dsDNA. MIP exhibited higher relative selectivity coefficient (K ` = 4.26 mu M/mu L) toward porcine dsDNA as compared to structural analogue beef dsDNA (K ` = 0.23 mu M/mu L) and chicken dsDNA (K ` = 0.21 mu M/mu L). This could be attributed to the introduction of the imprinted cavities exactly matching the porcine dsDNA on the surface of MIP nanocomposite film. Furthermore, PPy/TiO2 MIP showed a high reusability and low LOD (2.06 mu M) and LOQ (6.89 mu M) values.
