Molecularly imprinted polymers（MIPs） were applied as molecular recognition elements to an electro- chemical sensor for cinchonidine（CD）. A kind of MIP was synthesized with cinchonidine as template, modified ro- sin（ethylene glycol maleic rosinate acrylate） containing the skeleton of phenanthrene rings as cross-linker and me- thylacrylic acid as functional monomer. MIP membrane was prepared on a glassy carbon electrode for the determina- tion of CD via free radical polymerization method. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS） and cyclic vol- tammetry（CV） were used to characterize the membrane electrochemical behavior in electrode fabrication process. The experimental conditions were discussed. Under optimum conditions, it was found that the response of peak cur- rents was linear to the concentration of CD in a range of 0.013-2.26 mmol/L. The detection limit for CD is 1 μmol/L the relative standard deviation for 100 μmol/L CD is 1.34% and the incubation time is 2 min. The sensor was applied to the determination of CD in urine samples with satisfactory results.
