Abstract: A carbon composite electrode (CCE) impregnated with nano-structured Cr(III)-imprinted polymer (IP-CCE) was introduced as a novel sensing platform for Cr(III) measurement. The nanoparticles of Cr(III)-imprinted polymers were synthesized using itaconic acid and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, as complexing monomer and cross-linker, respectively. For analysis purpose, the electrode was incubated into the Cr(III) solution for a definite time and then differential pulse voltammetry technique was applied for the relevant signal recording. The Oxidative differential pulse voltammetry response of Cr(III) obtained using the IP-modified electrode was significantly higher than that recorded by either CCE or the CCE included with the non-imprinted polymer (NIP). Various factors, known to affect the response behavior of the IP-CCE, were investigated and optimized. The sensor exhibited distinct linear response ranges of 0.1 - 10 μmol L-1 with the sensitivity of 4.25 A mol-1 L. The lower detection limit of the sensor was calculated to be 17.6 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3). The sensor was applied successfully for the determination of Cr(III) in water and urine real samples
