A reliable and reproducible method for the determination of uric acid in urine samples has been developed. The method is based on the modification of a glassy carbon electrode by 3-acetylthiophene using cyclic voltammetry. The poly(3-acetylthiophene) modified glassy carbon electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytic effect towards the oxidation of uric acid in 0.1 m phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7.2. Compared with a bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE), an obvious shift of the oxidation peak potential in the cathodic direction and a marked enhancement of the anodic current response for uric acid were observed. The poly(3-acetylthiophene)/GCE was used for the determination of uric acid using square wave voltammetry. The peak current increased linearly with the concentration of uric acid in the range of 1.25 x 10(-5)-1.75 x 10(-4) M. The detection limit was 5.27 x 10(-7) M by square wave voltammetry. The poly(3-acetylthiophene)/GCE was also effective to determine uric acid and ascorbic acid in a mixture and resolved the overlapping anodic peaks of these two species into two well-defined voltammetric peaks in cyclic voltammetry at 0.030 V and 0.320 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) for ascorbic acid and uric acid, respectively. The modified electrode exhibited stable and sensitive current responses toward uric acid and ascorbic acid.

The electro-oxidation of cysteamine (CA) and tryptophan (TP) were studied by vinylferrocene-modified carbon nanotubes paste electrode using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and square wave voltammetry. This modified electrode exhibits persistent electron-mediating behavior followed by well-separated oxidation peaks towards CA and TP with decreasing their overpotentials. For the mixture containing CA and TP, the peaks potential well separated from each other. Using the modified electrode, the kinetics of CA electrooxidation was considerably enhanced by lowering the anodic overpotential through a catalytic fashion. Using square wave voltammetry, simultaneous determination of AC and TP has been explored at the modified electrode.

A Novel Strategy for Quantifying Clopidogrel Using Square‐wave Voltammetry and a Boron‐doped Diamond Film

The voltammetric behavior of clopidogrel bisulfate (CLO), an antiplatelet agent, was investigated for the first time in the literature on a cathodically pretreated boron‐doped diamond electrode (CP‐BDDE) using cyclic (CV) and square‐wave voltammetry (SWV). It was observed an anodic peak for CLO, suitable for analytical purposes, at about 1.15 V (vs. Ag/AgCl (3.0 mol L^?1 KCl)) by CV in Britton‐Robinson buffer solution (pH 5.0). On the physical‐chemical characterization of the interface phenomena, it was proved that electrode reaction of the analyte was controlled by a diffusion process. At optimized square‐wave parameters (pulse amplitude of 60 mV, frequency of 30 Hz and scan increment of 3 mV), the obtained analytical curve was linear for the CLO concentration range from 0.60 to 60.0 μmol L^?1, with a detection limit of 0.60 μmol L^?1. The simple, rapid and greener analytical method, based on CP‐BDDE electrochemical sensor, was successfully applied in real samples (pharmaceuticals and urine).

The electrochemical oxidation of the three fluoroquinolone drugs FQs: gatifloxacin GTF, moxifloxacin MXF and sparfloxacin SPF, at the bare and DNA‐modified glassy carbon electrodes has been studied by voltammetric techniques. The three FQs showed one irreversible oxidation peak at potential range 0.85–0.91 V vs. Ag‐AgCl, in phosphate buffer of pH 7.0. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and UV‐absorption spectroscopic techniques were employed to probe the interaction between the FQs and calf thymus double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ds CT‐DNA). From electrochemical data, the binding constant between DNA and the gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin and sparfloxacin are calculated to be 3228, 2596 and 2857 M^?1 respectively. Based on electrochemical and spectroscopic results, the mode of binding of fluoroquinolone to DNA through combined effect of intercalation and electrostatic interaction was concluded. A detection scheme based on a preconcentration and differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) determination at dsDNA modified glassy carbon electrode (DNA/GCE) was proposed for the trace determination of the studied analytes. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of the FQs in pharmaceutical formulations.

An electrochemical sensor for simultaneous quantification of Levodopa (L‐dopa) and Carbidopa (C‐dopa) using a β‐cyclodextrin/poly(N‐acetylaniline) (β‐CD/PNAANI) modified carbon paste electrode has been developed. Preconcentrating effect of β‐CD as well as its different inclusion complex stability with L‐dopa and C‐dopa was used to construct an electrochemical sensor for quantification of these important analytes.

Under optimized conditions, linear calibration curves were obtained in the ranges of 0.5–117 µM and 1.6–210 µM with detection limits down to 0.2 and 0.8 µM for L‐dopa and C‐dopa, respectively. The proposed electrode was successfully applied for the determination of L‐dopa /C‐dopa in pharmaceutical formulations and the results were in close agreement with the labeled values.

An electrochemical sensor for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA), guanine (G), and adenine (A) has been constructed by copolymerizing melamine monomer and Ag ions on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with cyclic voltammetry. The poly-melamine and nano Ag formed a hybridized film on the surface of the GCE. The morphology of the film was characterized by scanning electron microscope. The electrochemical and electrocatalytic properties of this film were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry, and square wave voltammetry (SWV). In 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 4.5), the modified electrode resolved the electrochemical response of DA, UA, G, and A into four well-defined voltammetric oxidation peaks by SWV; the oxidation peak current of DA, UA, G, and A increased 13-, 6-, 7-, and 9-fold, respectively, compared with those at the bare GCE and the SWV peak currents of DA, UA, G, and A with linear concentrations in the ranges of 0.1–50, 0.1–50, 0.1–50, and 0.1–60 μM, respectively. Based on this, a method for simultaneous determination of these species in mixture was setup. The detection limits were 10 nM for DA, 100 nM for UA, 8 nM for G, and 8 nM for A.

The electrochemical oxidation of anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) at graphene oxides (GOs)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) nanohybrid-modified screen-printed carbon and glassy carbon electrodes was studied by voltammetric techniques. The modified electrodes showed better performance toward the electro-oxidation and determination of 5-FU compared to CNTs-modified or GOs-modified electrodes.

Electrochemical behavior and detection of guanine using a sodium montmorillonite-modified carbon paste electrode

Herein, a sodium montmorillonite-modified carbon paste electrode is described for the electrochemical determination of guanine. Guanine yields a well-defined and very sensitive oxidation peak at the sodium montmorillonite-modified carbon paste electrode. Compared with the unmodified carbon paste electrode, the modified electrode facilitates the electron transfer of guanine, since it notably increases the oxidation peak current and lowers the oxidation overpotential of guanine. Based on this, a simple sensitive reliable electrochemical method is proposed for the detection of guanine after all the experimental parameters, such as solution pH value, sodium montmorillonite content in the carbon paste electrode, accumulation potential, and time, are optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the oxidation peak current of guanine varies linearly with its concentration in the range 5.0×10⁻⁸ to 2.0×10⁻⁵ M and the detection limit (signal-to-noise=3) is 2.0×10⁻⁸ M after 4-min accumulation. This method is successfully demonstrated with urine samples. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2006, Vol. 42, No. 2, pp. 178–182. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Square Wave Stripping Voltammetry of Unlabeled Single‐ and Double‐Stranded DNAs

We show that, in difference to previously applied electrochemical methods working with stationary electrodes, square wave voltammetry produces well‐developed peaks II_SW (specific for dsDNA) and III_SW yielded by ssDNA at hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) and solid amalgam electrodes (SAEs). Using these peaks various kinds of DNA structural transitions can be studied, including unwinding of dsDNA at negatively charged electrode surfaces. The sensitivity of the DNA analysis is much better than that obtained with guanine oxidation signals at carbon electrodes. Both carbon electrodes and SAEs appear attractive as transducers in label‐free RNA and DNA sensors.     

CuO Nanostructures Based Electrochemical Sensor for Simultaneous Determination of Hydroquinone and Ascorbic Acid

A simple, sensitive and reliable electrochemical sensor has been developed based on CuO nanostructures modified glassy carbon electrode for simultaneous determination of hydroquinone (HQ) and ascorbic acid (AA). The CuO nano material was synthesized by aqueous chemical growth method using different sources of OH. The characterization of nano material was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy. The glassy carbon electrode was modified by CuO nano material using drop cast method and studied by cyclic voltammetry. The CuO/GCE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidations of HQ and AA in borate buffer solution (pH 8.0) and the corresponding electrochemical signals have appeared as two well resolved oxidation peaks with significant peak potential differences of (0.21V vs. Ag/AgCl). Differential pulse voltammetry was used for simultaneous determination of HQ and AA using the CuO/GCE. At the optimum conditions, for simultaneous determination by synchronous change of the analyte concentrations, the linear response ranges were between 0.0003–0.355 mM for HQ and 0.0001–0.30 mM for AA respectively. Furthermore, CuO/GCE was successfully applied for the independent determination of AA in fruit juices as well as for the simultaneous determination of HQ and AA in cosmetic samples.     

Study of Electrochemical Behaviour of Carotenoids in Aqueous Media

Focus of this research was electrochemical study of β‐carotene, astaxanthin and lutein in aqueous media. Compounds were investigated on paraffin impregnated graphite electrode (PIGE) in 0.1 M HClO₄ aqueous electrolyte using square‐wave voltammetry (SWV) with pulse amplitude of 50 mV and step potential of 2 mV. Voltammetry of immobilized microparticles (VIM) allowed determination of β‐carotene and astaxanthin as solids immersed in aqueous electrolyte. Results obtained with SWV revealed oxidation peaks at 0.88 V and 1.09 V versus Ag/AgCl for β‐carotene and astaxanthin, respectively. To obtain additional information about their behaviour, stripping voltammetry microprobe (SPV) was employed. With this technique the responses of astaxanthin, β‐carotene and lutein exhibit three peaks (?0.345 V, 0.47 V and 0.65 V), two peaks (0.477 V and 0.725 V) and a single peak at 0.687 V, respectively. Based on these results, antioxidant activity of these carotenoids is in order: astaxanthin > β‐carotene > lutein. Good dose‐response relationship between carotenoid concentrations precipitated on PIGE and net peak current was obtained, but in rather narrow concentration range for each compound.

Electrochemical characterization of 2, 2′-[1, 2-ethanediylbis (nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone-carbon nanotube paste electrode and its application to simultaneous voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid and uric acid

The preparation and electrochemical characterization of a carbon nanotube paste electrode modified with 2,2′-[1,2-ethanediylbis (nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone, referred to as EBNBH, was investigated. The EBNBH carbon nanotube paste electrode (EBNBHCNPE) displayed one pair of reversible peaks at E _pa = 0.18 V and E _pc = 0.115 V vs Ag/AgCl. Half wave potential (E _1/2) and ΔE _p were 0.148 and 0.065 V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively. The electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) has been studied on EBNBHCNPE, using cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques. It has been shown that the oxidation of AA occurs at a potential where oxidation is not observed at the unmodified carbon paste electrode. The heterogeneous rate constant for oxidation of AA at the EBNBHCNPE was also determined and found to be about 1.07 × 10⁻³ cm s⁻¹. The diffusion coefficient of AA was also estimated as 5.66 × 10⁻⁶ cm² s⁻¹ for the experimental conditions, using chronoamperometry. Also, this modified electrode presented the property of electrocatalysing the oxidation of AA and uric acid (UA) at 0.18 and 0.35 V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively. The separations of anodic peak potentials of AA and UA reached 0.17 V. Using differential pulse voltammetry, the calibration curves for AA and UA were obtained over the range of 0.1–800 μM and 20–700 μM, respectively. With good selectivity and sensitivity, the present method provides a simple method for selective detection of AA and UA in biological samples.     

Simultaneous Determination of Dihydroxybenzene Isomers Using Preanodized Inlaying Ultrathin Carbon Paste Electrode

In this paper, we described a rapid, sensitive and selective method for simultaneous voltammetric determination of dihydroxybenzene isomers with a preanodized inlaying ultrathin carbon paste electrode (PAIUCPE). Scanning electron microscope (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and voltammetry were employed to characterize the configuration and electrochemical properties of the electrode. The resulting PAIUCPE exhibited excellent recognition ability towards dihydroxybenzene isomers. Three well‐defined oxidation peaks of catechol (CC), resorcinol (RC) and hydroquinone (HQ) can be identified entirely at the electrode. The oxidation peak potential difference between HQ and CC was 120 mV, CC and RC 430 mV, respectively. The peak currents increased linearly with increasing the concentration of dihydroxybenzene isomers. The proposed electrode can be applied to simultaneous determination of dihydroxybenzene isomers without previous chemical or physical separations.
