A　novel　molecularly　imprinted　electrochemiluminescence　sensor　based　on　a　Ru(bpy)32+/multi-walled　carbon　nanotubes　(MWCNTs)/nano-titanium　dioxide　(nano-TiO2)-Nafion　electrode　was　established　for　the　ultrasensitive　and　ultraselective　detection　of　bisphenol　A　(BPA).　The　introduction　of　MWCNTs/nano-TiO2　nanohybrids　into　the　Nafion　film　could　provide　an　excellent　basis　for　effective　immobilization　of　Ru(bpy)32+　and　improve　the　electrochemical　and　ECL　properties　of　Ru(bpy)32+.　The　MIP-ECL　sensor　fabricated　by　the　combination　of　the　MIT　with　the　Ru(bpy)32+　ECL　system　could　provide　specific　binding　sites　for　BPA　and　the　selectivity　of　the　sensor　was　significantly　improved.　Under　the　best　optimum　conditions,　the　proposed　MIP-ECL　sensor　not　only　exhibited　high　sensitivity　and　selectivity　for　BPA,　but　also　displayed　acceptable　reproducibility　and　stability.　A　linear　range　from　0.01　μg　L-1　to　2　μg　L-1　for　the　detection　of　BPA　was　observed　with　a　detection　limit　of　0.0041　μg　L-1.　Moreover,　the　fabricated　sensor　was　successfully　used　to　detect　BPA　in　ambient　water　samples　and　relatively　satisfactory　recoveries　were　obtained.　This　journal　is　©　The　Royal　Society　of　Chemistry　2016.
