Adsorptive stripping voltammetric determination of 4-aminophenol at a single-wall carbon nanotubes film coated electrode

A single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT)-Nafion film coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was described for the determination of 4-aminophenol. In pH 3.0 sodium citrate-HCl buffer, the oxidation peak current of 4-aminophenol increases greatly at the SWNT-Nafion film coated GCE in contrast to that at both bare GCE and Nafion-film coated GCE. Moreover, the oxidation peak potential shifts to more negative potential. All the experimental parameters were optimized for the determination of 4-aminophenol. The oxidation peak current is proportional to the concentration of 4-aminophenol over the range from 5×10⁻⁹ to 2×10⁻⁶ mol l⁻¹. The detection limit is 8×10⁻¹⁰ mol l⁻¹ at 4 min of accumulation. Using the proposed method, 4-aminophenol in water samples was determined.     

Electrochemical reduction and voltammetric determination of metronidazole at a nanomaterial thin film coated glassy carbon electrode

Simple and sensitive electrochemical method for the determination of metronidazole, based on a nanostructured film coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE), is described. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) was dispersed into water in the presence of a hydrophobic surfactant to give very stable and homogeneous MWNT suspension, and a MWNT-film coated GCE was achieved via evaporating solvent. Metronidazole yields a well-defined reduction peak whose potential is −0.71 V at the MWNT-film coated GCE in pH 9.0 Britton-Robinson buffer. Compared with bare GCE, the MWNT-film modified GCE significantly enhances the reduction peak current of metronidazole. All the experimental parameters were optimized for the determination of metronidazole. The detection limit is 6×10⁻⁹ mol/l at 2 min accumulation. This method has been successfully used to determine metronidazole in the drugs. Furthermore, results obtained by the proposed method have been compared with spectrophotometric method.     

Preparation and characterization of a new carbon paste electrode based on ketotifen–hexacyanoferrate

A new type of carbon paste electrode (CPE) was made using ketotifen fumarate (C₂₃H₂₃NO₅S; an antiasthmatic/antianaphylactic drug) and hexacyanoferrate. This electrode was constructed using an acidic solution of ketotifen fumarate and potassium hexacyanoferrate. For this purpose, ketotifen fumarate was dissolved in acidic solution (pH 1) and hexacyanoferrate was added by agitation, resulting in ketotifen–hexacyanoferrate (Ket–HCF) precipitate. The obtained precipitate was separated and introduced into carbon paste. The electrochemical behavior of Ket–HCF CPE was studied by cyclic voltammetry. A modified electrode shows one pair of peaks with surface-confined characteristics, with a 0.1-M phosphate buffer as supporting electrolyte. The effects of pH, alkali metal cations, and anions of supporting electrolytes on the electrochemical characteristics of modified electrodes were studied. The diffusion coefficients of hydrated K⁺ in film (D), the transfer coefficient (α), and the transfer rate constant for electrons (k _s) were determined.

Electrochemical behavior and voltammetric determination of norfloxacin at glassy carbon electrode modified with multi walled carbon nanotubes/Nafion

A simple and rapid electrochemical method is developed for the determination of trace-level norfloxacin, based on the excellent properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The MWCNTs/Nafion film-coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is constructed and the electrochemical behavior of norfloxacin at the electrode is investigated in detail. The results indicate that MWCNTs modified glassy carbon electrode exhibited efficiently electrocatalytic oxidation for norfloxacin (NFX) with relatively high sensitivity, stability and life time. Under conditions of cyclic voltammetry, the current for oxidation of selected analyte is enhanced significantly in comparison to the bare GCE. The electrocatalytic behavior is further exploited as a sensitive detection scheme for the analyte determinations by linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). Under optimized condition in voltammetric method the concentration calibration range and detection limit (S/N=3) are 0.1-100 micromol/L and 5 x 10(-8)mol/L for NFX. The proposed method was successfully applied to NFX determination in tablets.

A chemically modified electrode is constructed based on the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)/4-aminobenzeresulfonic acid (4-ABSA) film-coated glassy carbon electrode. The electrocatalytic oxidation of tyrosine (Tyr) is investigated on the surface of the MWNTs/4-ABSA-modified electrode using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The prepared modified electrode shows voltammetric responses with high sensitivity and selectivity for Tyr in optimal conditions, which makes it very suitable for sub-micromolar detection of Tyr. A sensitive oxidation peak at +0.64 V is employed to determine Tyr. Good linear relationship between the oxidation peak current and the Tyr concentration in the range of 1 × 10⁻⁷ to 5 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L is obtained in phosphate buffer solution with pH 7.0. By use of modified electrode, the voltammetric detection limit for Tyr in DPV measurements is 8 × 10⁻⁸ mol/L (S/N = 3). Good sensitivity, selectivity and stability of the low-cost modified electrode make it very suitable for the determination of trace amounts of Tyr in pharmaceutical and clinical preparations.     

Catalytic adsorptive stripping voltammetric determination of copper(II) on a carbon paste electrode

A catalytic adsorptive stripping voltammetric method for the determination of copper(II) on a carbon paste electrode (PCE) in an alizarin red S (ARS)-K₂S₂O₈ system is proposed. In this method, copper(II) is effectively enriched by both the formation and adsorption of a copper(II)-ARS complex on the PCE, and is determined by catalytic stripping voltammetry. The catalytic enhancement of the cathodic stripping current of the Cu(II) in the complex results from a redox cycle consisting of electrochemical reduction of Cu(II) ion in the complex and subsequent chemical oxidation of the Cu(II) reduction product by persulfate, which reduces the contamination of the working electrode from Cu deposition and also improves analytical sensitivity. In Britton-Robinson buffer (pH 4.56±0.1) containing 3.6×10⁻⁵ mol L⁻¹ ARS and 1.6×10⁻³ mol L⁻¹ K₂S₂O₈, with 180 s of accumulation at −0.2 V, the second-order derivative peak current of the catalytic stripping wave was proportional to the copper(II) concentration in the range of 8.0×10⁻¹⁰ to ∼3.0×10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹. The detection limit was 1.6×10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹. The proposed method was evaluated by analyzing copper in water and soil.     

Copper oxide nanopowder modified carbon paste electrode for the voltammetric assay of vonoprazan

Vonoprazan (VPZ) is a novel promising member of gastric acid-suppressive medicinal administrated in Japan in 2015. Only a few HPLC analysis protocols were reported for VPZ assaying, therefore, the present work describes for the first time a novel copper oxide nanoparticles-based sensor as a promising analytical tool for differential pulse voltammetric determination of vonoprazan with enhanced sensitivity compared with the bare electrode. An irreversible oxidation process with the two-electron transfer was elucidated with scan rate measurements. At the optimized conditions, peak heights showed against VPZ in the concentration range from 0.99 to 20.00 µg mL^?1, and detection limit of 0.24 µg mL^?1. The proposed sensor showed prolonged stability with a 95% recovery of the original peak height within the first 30 days. Good reproducibility and repeatability of the fabrication protocol was reported with RSD 1.3%. Noticeable resolution between the VPZ, ascorbic acid, and uric voltammetric peaks allows accurate assaying of VPZ in biological fluids with average recoveries agreeable with the conventional HPLC techniques.

The electrochemical response of a modified-carbon nanotubes paste electrode with p-aminophenol was investigated as an electrochemical sensor for sulfite determination. The electrochemical behaviour of sulfite was studied at the surface of the modified electrode in aqueous media using cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry. It has been found that under the optimum condition (pH 7.0) in cyclic voltammetry, the oxidation of sulfite occurs at a potential about 680?mV less positive than that of an unmodified-carbon nanotubes paste electrode.

The relative standard deviations for ten successive assays of 1.0 and 50.0?µmol?L^?1 sulfite were 2.5% and 2.1%, respectively. Finally, the modified electrode was examined as a selective, simple and precise new electrochemical sensor for the determination of sulfite in water and wastewater samples.

A sensitive and accurate method for determining five sulfonamides based on HPLC with amperometric detection and using a glassy carbon electrode modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes is proposed.

Surface-enhanced oxidation and detection of Sunset Yellow and Tartrazine using multi-walled carbon nanotubes film-modified electrode

The insoluble multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) was successfully dispersed into water in the presence of hydrophobic surfactant. After that, MWNT film-coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was achieved via dip-coating and evaporating water.
