Abstract In this study, methylene blue (MB) imprinted microbeads were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Differential pulse voltammetric responses of carbon paste electrodes modified with MB polymer used to evaluate the adsorption selectivity features polymer. For studies two basic dyestuffs (thionine toluidine blue) which have similar structure chosen. Comparison obtained pure either or nonimprinted revealed that presented a higher template molecule in contrast structurally molecules, thionine blue.
