A label-free and highly sensitive impedimetric aptasensor was developed based on electropolymerized film for the determination of thrombin. The first step is the electrogeneration of a poly(pyrrole-nitrilotriacetic acid) (poly(pyrrole-NTA)) film onto the surface of electrodes followed by complexation of Cu(2+)
