Abstract: Herein, we have focused on the preparation of triazinic pesticide imprinted SPR nanosensors for detection of herbicides. Triazinic pesticides are weedkillers that are related with possible carcinogenic effects, birth defects, and menstrual problems when uptake by humans. Although there are restrictions and bans on their use in some countries they are still one of the most widely used pesticides in the world. The development of rapid, sensitive, and inexpensive diagnosis tools for environmental and biological monitoring is currently a research area of great interest. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) nanosensors have been used widely for the detection of triazinic pesticides because of their simplicity, lack of requirement for labeling and ease of miniaturization, low cost, high specificity and sensitivity, and real-time measurement. Molecularly imprinted polymers that have molecular recognition talent, are easy to prepare, less expensive, stable, and can be manufactured with good reproducibility, are used for the creation of biorecognitive surfaces on the SPR nanosensors. Herein, we have focused on the production of triazinic pesticide-imprinted SPR nanosensors
