Abstract: A highly sensitive and selective electrochemical biomimetic sensor was fabricated for fast detection of chloramphenicol (CAP) in honey and milk samples. Platinum thin-film microelectrode (Pt TFME), which could provide unique electrochemical properties and achieve measurement using very limited solution volumes, was surface-modified by electropolymerizing o-phenylenediamine. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to characterize the preparation process of CAP-imprinted poly(o-phenylenediamine) film and rebinding ability of CAP into the imprinted cavities. The electrochemical properties of the sensor were further investigated with square wave voltammetry (SWV) by using K3Fe(CN)6 as an electroactive probe. The current difference of oxidation peaks of K3Fe(CN)6 had a good linear relationship with the concentration of CAP in the range of 0.9-10 nM. The detection limit was 0.39 nM based on the signal to noise ratio of 3. The developed sensor was successfully applied to determine CAP in honey and milk samples, and the result was in good agreement with that obtained by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). The sensor showed high sensitivity and excellent selectivity to CAP in comparison to other structurally related and/or normally existing antibiotics, and demonstrated great promise for the rapid quantification of CAP in real food samples and field analysis
