Abstract

Reliable detection of glyphosate remains challenging, particularly in real water samples. Here, we present a modification-free electrode that directly oxidizes glyphosate as a promising route to a robust detection system. Additionally, we show how dynamic conditions under microfluidic flow enhance mass transport and improve the detection limit compared with static operation, while a molecularly imprinted polymer preconcentrator mitigates matrix effects from common interferents. Together, these elements enable a proof-of-concept continuous sensing scheme for monitoring glyphosate in water.
