Abstract

In this study, a molecularly imprinted polymer capable of recognizing 15 sulfonamides was first synthesized with sulfabenz as the dummy template. The calculation results from computation simulation showed that the specific 3D conformation of the template had an important influence on the polymer’s recognition ability. Then, the polymer was used as recognition reagent to prepare a chemiluminescence sensor on a conventional 96-well microplate for the determination of the residues of 15 sulfonamides in meat (chicken and pork). Due to the 4-(imidazol-1-yl)phenol-enhanced luminol–H2O2 system, the limits of detection for the 15 analytes were in the range of 1.0–12 pg/mL. The recoveries from the standard fortified blank samples were in the range of 72.7–99%. Furthermore, one assay could be finished within 30 min, and the sensor could be reused 4 times. Therefore, this sensor could be used as a very useful tool for routine screening of residues of sulfonamides in meat samples.
