Nucleic acid sensor based on polyaniline (PANI) has been fabricated by covalently immobilizing double stranded calf thymus (dsCT) DNA onto perchlorate (ClO − 4 )‐doped PANI film deposited onto indium‐tin‐oxide (ITO) glass plate using 1‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐3‐ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/ N ‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) chemistry. These dsCT‐DNA‐PANI‐ClO 4 /ITO and PANI‐ClO 4 /ITO electrodes have been characterized using square wave voltammetry, electrochemical impedance, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier‐transform‐infrared (FTIR) measurements. This disposable dsCT‐DNA‐PANI‐ClO 4 /ITO bioelectrode, stable for about 4 months, can be used to detect cypermethrin (0.005 ppm) and trichlorfon (0.01 ppm) in 30 and 60 s, respectively.
