Histamine is an important substance that can be applied as a parameter for allergic reactions and food freshness. This study develops a method to produce a histamine sensor based on electrodes modified using polyurethane-LiClO4. A sensor method was developed where this sensor was produced from polyurethane. The application of 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (hard compound) and palm kernel oil-based monoester polyol (soft compound) to produce polyurethane (PU) based on bio-polyol. The addition of lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) was done in order to increase the conductivity of PU. The oxidation process was detected using cyclic voltammetry, whereas the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to analyze the conductivity of the polymer. The polyurethane-LiClO4 was attached on a screen-printed electrode (SPE) within 45 min. Moreover, the 1% LiClO4-PU-SPE presented satisfactory selectivity for the detection of histamine in the pH 7.5 solution. The LiClO4-PU-SPE presented a good correlation coefficient (R = 0.9991) in the range 0.015–1 mmol·L–1. The detection limit was 0.17 mmol·L–1. Moreover, the histamine concentration of mackerel samples was detected by the PU-SEP-LiClO4. Several amine compounds were chosen to study the selectivity of histamine detection using SPE-PU-LiClO4. The interference was from several major interfering compounds such as aniline, cadaverine, hexamine, putrescine, and xanthine. The technique showed a satisfactory selective analysis compared to the other amines. A satisfactory recovery performance toward varying concentrations of histamine was obtained at 94 and 103% for histamine at 0.01 and 0.1 mmol·L–1, respectively. The application of PU-SEP-LiClO4 as an electrochemical sensor has a great prospect to analyze histamine content in fish mackerel as a consequence of PU-SEP-LiClO4 having good selectivity and simplicity.
