Construction and Analytical Applications of Plastic Membrane Electrodes for Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride

 Oxytetracycline hydrochloride-selective electrodes of both the coated wire and the conventional polymer membrane types based on oxytetracyclinium phosphotungstate and phosphomolybdate have been prepared. A Nernstian response is shown by these electrodes within 1.0×10⁻⁶–1.0×10⁻² M concentration ranges depending on the type of electrode. The response is unaffected by the change of pH over the range 4–11. The standard electrode potentials, E°, were determined at different temperatures and used to calculate the isothermal temperature coefficients of the electrodes. The electrodes show good selectivity to oxytetracycline hydrochloride with respect to many inorganic cations, sugars and amino-acids. Oxytetracycline hydrochloride is determined successfully in pure solutions and in pharmaceutical preparations using calibration by standard addition and potentiometric titration. A regeneration process for the exhausted electrodes has been developed. Received February 2, 2000. Revision April 7, 2000.

Determination of Sulphur in Solid and Liquid Samples by Potentiometric Titration with Ion Selective Electrode.

Abstract

This paper describes a potentiometric method for the determination of sulphur in solid and liquid samples, using a sulphide ion selective electrode after the reduction distillation step. The determination of sulphide in solid and liquid samples without prior treatment was carried out by direct and titration potentiometric methods.

The reproducibility of the method and the recovery of sulphate in solid samples was investigated using analytical reagent grade 99% sodium sulphate. Portions of aproximately 100 mg of reagent were subjected to the reduction distillation process. After the ion selective electrode showed a stable value of the potential, indicating that all the sulphate had been reduced to sulphide, the potentiometric titration with lead nitrate solution was performed. A mean recovery of 98% of sulphate was found. The potentiometric titration method described in this work, can be applied to determine S⁼ in solid samples with the advantage that it does not require sample solubilization or extraction prior to the determination. The method yields an almost total reduction of sulphur and also a good precision.     

Preconcentration and Voltammetric Study of Nicergoline at a Carbon Paste Electrode

 The electrochemical oxidation of nicergoline is investigated using cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry at a carbon paste electrode. For the determination of nicergoline an adsorptive stripping procedure is proposed. The response is characterized with respect to pH, ionic strength, preconcentration time, accumulation potential, nicergoline concentration, reproducibility and other variables. By differential pulse voltammetry at a carbon paste electrode and pH 8.0, a linear calibration in the range 5×10⁻⁸ M to 1×10⁻⁷ M and a detection limit of 1×10⁻⁸ M are obtained. The preconcentration medium-exchange approach was used for a selective determination of nicergoline in urine. For dilute urine samples a detection limit of 5×10⁻⁸ M is obtained after 3 min of accumulation and medium-exchange. The procedure also is applied for the determination of nicergoline in dosage form.

A Novel Ion-Selective Sensor for Procaine Hydrochloride Based on a Piezoelectric Quartz Crystal Coated with a Procaine Tetraphenylborate PVC Membrane

 A novel ion-selective sensor for procaine hydrochloride has been proposed and applied successfully to analysis of pharmaceutical preparations. The sensor is based on modification of the Ag-electrode of an AT-cut piezoelectric quartz crystal with a PVC membrane containing procaine tetraphenylborate. A linear relation between the logarithm of the response frequency and the logarithm of the procaine hydrochloride concentration was found experimentally and could be explained by combination of a modified Sauerbrey equation and the Freundlich isotherm. The detection range was from 8.3 × 10⁻⁸ to 5.0 × 10⁻³ M with a detection limit of 8.3 × 10⁻⁸ M. The selectivity of the sensor and the influence of experimental parameters such as solution pH and detection time were investigated. Received February 10, 1999. Revision October 10, 1999.

A new Fluorimetric Reagent for Highly Selective and Sensitive Determination of Terbium Ion

 In this work, a new ligand, 2,9-bis[N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)-aminomethyl]-1,10-phenanthroline (BBCAP), was synthesized and used to establish a novel fluorimetric method for the determination of trace amounts of terbium in a binary system. Its luminescence mechanism was studied. The excitation and emission wavelengths are 284 nm and 547 nm, respectively. Other rare-earth metal ions in 100-fold excess caused no interference. The fluorescence intensity was a linear function of the concentration of terbium in the range of 5.0 × 10⁻¹⁰–1.0 × 10⁻⁶ mol/L. The detection limit was 2.0 × 10⁻¹¹ mol/L (n = 12). The standard addition method was used to determine the terbium in a synthetic rare-earth sample with satisfactory results. This method represents a direct, rapid, selective and sensitive analytical procedure with a widely linear range. Received November 29, 2001 Revision February 9, 2002     

Determination of Nitrite by a Modified Electrode of Poly(1-Naphthylamine) Film Doped with Dawson-Type Heteropolyanions

 The voltammetric behavior of the electrode modified with poly(1-naphthylamine) film doped with α-P₂W₁₈ heteropolyanions was investigated. The concentration of the modifier, the acidity of the medium and the scan range of potential had obvious effects on the electrochemical characteristics of the electrode. The electrocatalytical characteristics of the film electrode were studied by cyclic voltammetry and other methods. It is suggested that the electrocatalytic reaction of nitrite is controlled by its diffusion. The applicability of the electrode was assessed by the determination of nitrite in waste-water. Determination limit for nitrite was 5 × 10⁻⁷ mol.L⁻¹. Received August 23, 1999. Revision January 2, 2001     

Preconcentration and Voltammetric Determination of the Antihypertensive Doxazosin on a C8 Modified Carbon Paste Electrode

 An electrochemical study of the doxazosin oxidative process at carbon paste electrodes using different voltammetric techniques has been carried out. The process is irreversible and controlled by adsorption, giving rise to an oxidation wave around 1.0 V in citric acid-citrate buffer (pH 3.0). A mechanism based on the oxidation of the amine group is postulated. Two methods based on adsorptive stripping (AdS) of doxazosin at the C₈-modified carbon paste electrode (C₈-MCPE), before its voltammetric determination, are studied, using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) as redissolution techniques. By means of AdS-DPV and C₈-MCPE, doxazosin can be determined over the 1.0 × 10⁻⁹ to 3.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹ range with a variation coefficient of 2.2% (2.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹) and a limit of detection of 7.4 ×10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹. If AdS-SWV is used, a linear range from 1.0 × 10⁻⁹ to 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹ is obtained, the variation coefficient being 2.8% (2.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹, and the limit of detection reached 7.7 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹. The AdS-DPV procedure was applied to the determination of doxazosin in urine and formulations. Received March 13, 1999. Revision December 23, 1999.
