The determination of acetaminophen using a carbon nanotube:graphite-based electrode

The oxidation of acetaminophen was studied at a glassy carbon electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes and a graphite paste. Cyclic voltammety, differential pulse voltammetry and square wave voltammetry at various pH values, scan rates, and the effect of the ratio of nanotubes to graphite were investigated in order to optimize the parameters for the determination of acetaminophen.

The porous nanostructure of the electrode improves the surface area which results in an increase in the peak current. The voltammetric response is linear in the range between 75 and 2000 ng.mL^?1, with standard deviations between 0.25 and 7.8%, and a limit of detection of 25 ng.mL^?1.

Risperidone (RIS), one of the typical antipsychotics drugs, originally approved to be used for the mental illness treatment, especially schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism and major depression. In the present study, different carbon nanostructures including functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (F-MWCNTs), carbon nanoparticles, nanodiamond-graphite and reduced graphene oxide were employed for modification of the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for ultrasensitive detection of RIS. The most significant increase in the anodic peak current of RIS was observed on F-MWCNTs-modified electrode (compared to the other modified electrodes and bare GCE). The influence of different experimental parameters such as pH of the buffered solutions, the amount of the modifier and time and potential of the accumulation was optimized by monitoring the LSV responses toward RIS for the selected modified electrode. A wide linear dynamic range of 0.04–7 µM with a low detection limit of 12 nM was obtained. The results exhibit an acceptable performance of the proposed electrode for determination of RIS in the pharmaceutical and clinical preparations.
