Abstract: A sensitive and facile molecular imprinted sensor has been fabricated using edge plane pyrolytic graphite (EPPG) for the determination of an important oxidative DNA damage product, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). The molecularly imprinted polymer film was fabricated by electropolymerization of melamine in the presence of 8-OHdG, on glutaraldehyde/poly 1,5-diaminonaphthalene modified EPPG. The imprinted sensor surface was characterized by using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, Electron Impedance Spectroscopy, Cyclic Voltammetry, Square Wave Voltammetry and UV-visible spectroscopy. The calibration response was linear over a concentration range of 20 x 10-9 - 3 x 10-6 M of 8-OHdG with sensitivity and limit of detection (3σ/b) as 10.59 μM/μA and 3 x 10-9 M respectively. The common metabolites in urine, like uric acid, ascorbic acid, xanthine, hypoxanthine do not interfere up to 100-fold concentration. The imprinted sensor is also successfully employed for the determination of 8-OHdG in human urine sample of a renal failure patient
