- Abstract
Nanotechnology is an advanced field of science that involves fabrication of nanostructures, nanosensing devices, and systems. This research article describes the fabrication, characterization and optimization of tetracycline (TC)-imprinted nanobeads and their use for designing electrochemical, mass-based and conduction-based sensor setups. Tetracycline (TC) is useful for the treatment of a number of infections. In view of their lethal side effects and presence of residues in human food, the use of TC has been banned. The artificial receptor material is developed consisting of imprinted nanobeads. Atomic force microscopy showed the small-sized beads of about 50–100 nm with rough surface. These imprinted beads facilitate electron transfer for the capture of TC back in the substrate due to large surface area. This novel selective imprinted material was functional to determine the tetracycline residues in human food samples.
