摘要： A novel impedimetric sensor for the determination of tyramine (Tyr), a biogenic amine, on the surface of gold nanoparticle-poly-(8-anilino-1-napthalene sulphonic acid), AuNP-PANSA modified gold electrode (AuE) is presented for the first time. The AuNP were successfully synthesized by a green synthesis method. Their characterization and optimization were conducted using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Under optimal conditions, the impedimetric sensor revealed a relatively broad linear range from 0.8 to 80 μM similar to more complex architectures found in the literature and the limit of detection of 0.04 μM was the lowest achieved until now. In order to test the reliability of the proposed method, real sample application studies were conducted using dairy products and fermented drinks. It was found that the sensor presented a good selectivity and recovery. Furthermore, the impedimetric sensor shows good reproducibility, stability, selectivity and very small interferences which augur well for its application in food safety control processes.
