Voltammetric determination of 2-nitrophenol at a bentonite-modified carbon paste electrode

A bentonite-modified carbon paste electrode has been applied to the determination of 2-nitrophenol by differential pulse voltammmetry. The electrochemical reduction of 2-nitrophenol at –0.8 V is carried out in an artificial sea water-formic acid/sodium formate medium at pH 4. The peak height was found to be dependent on the pH over the range 2–11; the presence of a secondary process was observed in the pH range 8–11. The peak potential showed a dependence on pH, with two linear regions with different slopes. A linear relationship between peak intensity and concentration was obtained in the range 0.07–10 mgl^–1, with a detection limit of 0.03 mg 1^–1 and a coefficient of variation of 1.3% at 5 mg 1^–1. The effects of organic and inorganic species on the 2-nitrophenol determination were studied with a view to testing the resolution of the voltammetric technique. The proposed method has been applied to sea water samples with good results.     

Voltammetric study of 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol at a modified carbon paste electrode

The voltammetric behavior of 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol at a modified carbon paste electrode has been studied. Among the modifiers tested, hidepowder was found to give the best results. Cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry were used to study the nature of the reaction; the possibility of accumulation of the analyte onto the electrode was studied by differential pulse voltammetry. An irreversible behavior and the adsorption of 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol on the electrode were confirmed. The reduction signal shows two peaks. A linear relationship between the first peak height and the concentration of 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol was obtained in the range 0.001–5 mg l⁻¹, with a detection limit of 3.2 μg l⁻¹ and a relative standard deviation of 3.20%. The interferences with the reduction peak of 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol of several nitro- and chloro-phenols and inorganic species were tested.     

Voltammetric behavior and determination of bismuth on sodium humate modified carbon paste electrode

The preconcentration and voltammetric behavior of Bi^III on a sodium humate modified carbon paste electrode was studied by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse stripping voltammetry (DPSV). The proposed measurement involves an initial nonelectrolytic preconcentration step in which Bi^III is complexed by the surface modifier in a solution of 0.05 M KNO₃-0.0106 M HNO₃ (pH 2.0) and a subsequent electrochemical scan step in which the preconcentrated Bi^III was reduced and then oxidized promptly in supporting electrolyte of 0.5 M HNO₃. The resulting DPSV anodic current was proportional to the concentration of Bi^III ion over the range of 4.78 × 10⁻⁸–1.44 × 10⁻⁵ M. The detection limit was 4.78 × 10⁻⁸ M. The proposed method was used to determine bismuth in various samples. Various factors affecting the electrode behavior were also investigated at the same time.

The electrocatalytic examination of cephalosporins at carbon paste electrode modified with CoSalophen

The electrocatalytic oxidation of cephalexin and cefazolin has been studied at a carbon paste electrode modified with cobalt salophen (CoSal) by cyclic voltammetry. The selectivity of the carbon paste modified with CoSal in detecting cephalexin and cefazolin was examined. To suggest the electrocatalytic mechanism for electro-oxidation of cefazolin, the electrochemical behavior of ceftriaxone was investigated which has a thiol group out of the beta lactam ring. The electrocatalytic oxidation of these antibiotics is shown to be irreversible at the CoSal modified electrode. Scan rate dependence of cefazolin, which is a sulfur-containing compound, has been examined. The results indicated that the electrocatalytic oxidation of the compounds is diffusion controlled. The responses of the modified electrode were compared with those of unmodified electrode and it has shown that the modified electrode has better sensitivity than unmodified electrode to the detection of cefazolin. The overall number of electrons contributed to the oxidation of cefazolin is obtained 1 by chronoamperometry; the number of electron involved in the rate-determining step was 1. The results of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using the modified electrode with high sensitivity were applied for the determination of cefazolin in human synthetic serum samples. The linear range was obtained from 1 × 10⁻⁵ to 1 × 10⁻³ M for DPV determination of cefazolin in buffered solutions (pH 3.0).     

A study on the determination of chromium as chromate at a carbon paste electrode modified with surfactants

A procedure for the determination of chromium is described based on synergistic pre-concentration of the chromate anion at a carbon paste electrode modified in situ with quarternary ammonium salts such as 1-ethoxycarbonylpentadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (Septonex^®), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB). The proper electrochemical detection utilises the reduction Cr(VI) → Cr(III) performed in the differential pulse cathodic voltammetric mode. In discussion, considerable attention has been paid to the accumulation mechanism at the carbon paste electrode in the presence of surfactants. Furthermore, after optimising the corresponding experimental conditions (0.1-0.3 M HCl + 0.1 M NaCl as the supporting electrolyte, 2.5-25 μM as the total concentration of modifier, pre-concentration at +0.7 V versus Ag/AgCl and the stripping from +0.7 to −0.4 V), the analytical performance of the method has been evaluated. The signal of interest was reproducible within ±8% and proportional to the concentration in a range of 0.5-50 μM CrO₄²⁻, with a limit of detection (S/N = 3:1) of about 5×10⁻⁸ M CrO₄²⁻ (with accumulation for 300 s). Interference studies were focused mainly on the species capable of forming ion-pairs with the modifier; i.e., TlCl₄⁻, AuCl₄⁻, PdCl₄²⁻, PtCl₆²⁻, VO₄³⁻, MnO₄⁻ and I⁻. Practical applicability of the method was tested on model solutions via the recovery rates (typically 90-110%) or using selected certified reference materials (tea, bush leaves, clover) and two samples of black tea when the respective results were compared to those obtained by the reference determinations with ICP-AES.     

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.

Linear scan stripping voltammetry of copper(II) at the chemically modified carbon paste electrode

A new chemically modified electrode (CME), -benzoinoxime (CUPRON) modified carbon paste electrode, for determining copper(II) is reported because of its excellent selectivity and sensitivity. The electrode is made by mixing a quantity of CUPRON (25%, w/w) with graphite powder (50%, w/w) and paraffin oil (25%, w/w). The CME preferentially deposits copper from the pH 8.5 NH₃-NH₄Cl buffer solution containing copper(II) under an open circuit and most of metal ions do not interfere with the measurements. The detection limit (S/N of three) for determining Cu(II) is 3 × 10^–10 g/ml after 10 min accumulation in fast linear scan stripping voltammetric measurement. Linear calibration curves are obtained for Cu(II) concentration ranged from 1 × 10^–8 M to 1 × 10^–6 M. The response can be maintained with relative standard deviation of 6.0% in a 5 × 10^–6 M Cu(II) solution after eight accumulation/measurement/ regeneration cycles at the same electrode surface. The effect resulted from carbon paste preparation, reduction potential, electrode renewal, electrolyte and solution pH, preconcentration time, concentration dependence, possible interference and other variables has been evaluated. As for application, the CME demonstrates its high sensitivity and copper-selectivity in complex composition samples, such as anodic mud and polluted water.

Multi-walled carbon nanotube paste electrode for selective voltammetric detection of isoniazid

A multi-walled carbon nanotube paste electrode (MWCPE) is prepared as an electrochemical sensor with high sensitivity and selectivity in responding to isoniazid. The electrochemical oxidation of isoniazid is investigated in buffered solution by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. The electrode is shown to be very effective for the detection of isoniazid in the presence of other biological reductant compounds. The electrochemical oxidation of cysteine, due to the high overvoltage, is completely stopped at the surface of MWCPE. The electrode exhibits a very good resolution between the voltammetric peak of isoniazid and the peaks of ascorbic acid (AA) and dopamine (DA). A resolution of more than 450 mV between the anodic peak potentials makes the MWCPE suitable for simultaneous detection of isoniazid in the presence of AA or DA in clinical and pharmaceutical preparations. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) is applied as a sensitive method for the determination of isoniazid. The linear range in these determinations is 1 × 10⁻⁶–1 × 10⁻³ M for isoniazid and the detection limit is 5 × 10⁻⁷ M. The electrode was applied to the simultaneous determinations in isoniazid and AA mixtures and also, isoniazid and DA mixture over a wide concentration range. The slope variation for the calibration curves of isoniazid (RSD) was less than 4.5% (based on ten measurements over a period of three months).

The modified electrode shows good selectivity for naproxen in the presence of some organic and inorganic interferences and very good precision in real samples. Finally, naproxen was measured in the presence of acetaminophen.     

Electrocatalytic and selective determination of d‐penicillamine in the presence of tryptophan using a benzoylferrocene‐modified carbon nanotube paste electrode

Two amino acids – d ‐penicillamine (D‐PA) and tryptophan (TRP) – could be simultaneously determined in an aqueous solution (pH 7.0) using a novel benzoylferrocene‐modified carbon nanotube paste electrode. The results indicate that the electrode is efficient in terms of its electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of D‐PA, leading to an overpotential reduction by more than 155 mV. Using square wave voltammetry, measurement of D‐PA and TRP in one mixture could be done independently from each other with a potential difference of about 205 mV. The proposed electrochemical sensor exhibited a linear calibration plot ranging from 1.0 × 10^?6 to 8.0 × 10^?4 m with a detection limit of 1.3 × 10^?7 m for D‐PA. Finally, the proposed method was applied to the determination of D‐PA in a D‐PA capsule. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
