Molecularly imprinted polymer based microtiter chemiluminescence array for determination of phenothiazines and benzodiazepines in pork

In this study, a molecularly imprinted polymer based chemiluminescence array capable of simultaneous determining phenothiazines and benzodiazepines was first reported. Two polymers were coated in different wells of the conventional 96-well microtiter plate as the recognition reagents, and the added analytes competed with a horseradish peroxidase-labeled bi-hapten conjugate to bind the recognition reagents. The light signal was induced by using a highly effective luminol-H2O2-IMP system. The assay procedure consisted of only one sample loading step prior to data acquisition. Then, the array was used to determine 4 phenothiazines and 5 benzodiazepines in pork simultaneously. The limits of detection for the 9 drugs were in a range of 0.001-0.01 ng/mL, and the recoveries from the fortified blank pork were in a range of 63.5%-94.1%. Furthermore, the array could be reused for 8 times. The detection results for some real pork samples were consistent with an ultra performance liquid chromatography method.
