The importance of RAC tracking in human biofluids has boosted many demands for
designing an ultrasensitive tool to determine the trace value of the RAC from clinical,
judicial, and forensic centers. In this study, an electrochemical biodevice has developed for
the highly selective detection of this illegal feed additive under a double recognition strategy
of the aptamer (Apt) and molecular imprinting polymer (MIP) on a glassy carbon electrode
(GCE). The sensing relies on this fact that both the MIP and Apt act synergistically to trap the …
