Abstract

Carbon-based nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubescarbon nanotubes, graphenegraphene, and carbon dotscarbon dots are added to the molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs)MIP to give enhanced sensitivity to the sensor. It significantly modifies the electrochemical response toward selective targeted moieties such as environmental pollutants that mainly include pesticides, insecticides, heavy metals, and antibiotics. The large surface area provided by these nanomaterials has remarkably altered the number of binding sites that excellently modify the detection limits. In this chapter we highlight the developments in the field of carbon-based MIPs. They behave as potent real-time sensorssensors in the detection of almost any predetermined analyte in biological, pharmaceutical, and environmental samples.
