Flow injection amperometric determination of acetaminophen at a gold nanoparticle modified carbon paste electrode

An amperometric detector with a gold nanoparticle modified carbon paste electrode (GNMCPE) was applied applied to flow injection analysis for the determination of acetaminophen. An obvious shift of the peak potential and increase of the current peak were observed for the GNMCPE in comparison to that of the bare carbon paste electrode. The experimental conditions, such as species of buffer, pH, flow rate, detection volume, injection volume, and injection time were investigated. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration curve was obtained over the concentration range of 0.1–80 mg L^?1 of acetaminophen with a linear correlation coefficient of 0.9994. The detection limit (3σ) was estimated to be 0.05 mg L^?1 (n?=?7). The recoveries of acetaminophen were between 98.40% and 104.1%, and the relative standard deviation varied between 1.66% and 2.74% for the different samples. This method was applied to analyze six types of tablets obtained from a local drugstore. The contents of acetaminophen were found to be 0.498, 0.323, 0.249, 0.324, 0.319 and 0.323 g of each tablet, respectively. These results are consistent with the values obtained by high performance liquid chromatography.     

Anodic voltammetric behaviors of methotrexate at a glassy carbon electrode and its determination in spiked human urine

The anodic voltammetric behavior of methotrexate was studied at glassy carbon electrode in acetate buffer (pH = 3.6) solution using cyclic, square-wave voltammetric and chronocoulometric techniques. The oxidation of methotrexate is an irreversible diffusion-controlled process. The oxidation mechanism was proposed and discussed in this work. The dependence of the current on pH, the concentration and nature of buffer, and instrumental parameters were investigated to optimize the experimental conditions for the determination of methotrexate. It was found that in the range of 8.0 × 10⁻⁷–2.0 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L, the currents measured by square-wave voltammetry presented a good linear property as a function of the concentrations of methotrexate. In addition, validation parameters, such as reproducibility, sensitivity and recovery were evaluated as well. The proposed method was also successfully applied for the determination of methotrexate in diluted human urine with good satisfactory.     

Electrocatalytic determination of ascorbic acid on a glassy carbon electrode chemically modified with cobalt pentacyanonitrosylferrate.

An electrochemically prepared thin film of cobalt pentacyanonitrosylferrate (GC/CoPCNF) was used as a surface modifier for glassy carbon electrodes. The oxidation of ascorbic acid on a glassy carbon electrode modified with GC/CoPCNF as a working electrode was studied using cyclic voltammetry, rotating disk electrode (RDE) voltammetry and chronoamperometry in a 0.25 M KNO3 + 0.25 M phosphate buffer (pH 7) solution. The glassy carbon modified with CoPCNF showed good electrocatalytic activity toward ascorbic acid oxidation. The kinetics of the catalytic reaction was investigated, and the average value of the rate constant (k) for the catalytic reaction and the diffusion coefficient (D) were evaluated by different approaches for ascorbic acid, and were found to be 3.3 +/- 0.3 x 10(2) M(-1) s(-1) and 3.2 +/- 0.3 x 10(-6) cm2 s(-1), respectively.     

Mercury-free simultaneous determination of cadmium and lead at a glassy carbon electrode modified with multi-wall carbon nanotubes

A multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWNT) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was described for the simultaneous determination of trace levels of cadmium and lead by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV). In pH 4.5 NaAc-HAc buffer containing 0.02 mol/l KI, Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ first adsorb onto the surface of a MWNT film coated GCE and then reduce at −1.20 V. During the positive potential sweep, reduced cadmium and lead were oxidized, and two well-defined stripping peaks appeared at −0.88 and −0.62 V. Compared with a bare GCE, a MWNT film coated GCE greatly improves the sensitivity of determining cadmium and lead. Low concentration of I⁻ significantly enhances the stripping peak currents since it induces Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ to adsorb at the electrode surface. The striping peak currents change linearly with the concentration of Cd²⁺ from 2.5×10⁻⁸ to 1×10⁻⁵ mol/l and with that of Pb²⁺ from 2×10⁻⁸ to 1×10⁻⁵ mol/l. The lowest detectable concentrations of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ are estimated to be 6×10⁻⁹ and 4×10⁻⁹ mol/l, respectively. The high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability of this MWNT film coated electrode demonstrated its practical application for a simple, rapid and economical determination of trace levels of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ in water samples.

A new, simple and low cost voltammetric method for the determination of cefpirome in pharmaceutical preparations has been developed using multiwalled carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNT), which showed stable response with enhanced selectivity and sensitivity over the bare glassy carbon electrode.

Glassy carbon electrode modified with electrodeposited nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiOxNPs) was used as electrocatalyst for oxidation of omeprazole and pentoperazole in alkaline solution. The modified electrode exhibited efficient electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of omeprazole and pentoperazole with relatively high sensitivity, excellent stability, and long lifetime. Hydrodynamic amperometric method is used for determination of selected analytes. Under optimized condition, the linear concentration range, detection limit, and sensitivity of modified electrode toward omeprazole detection are 4.5–120 μM, 0.4 μM (at signal to noise 3), and 40.1 nA μM⁻¹ cm⁻², respectively. For pantoperazole, hydrodynamic amperometric determination yielded calibration curve with linear range of 2.5–180 μM, detection limit of 0.2 μM, and sensitivity of 39.2 nA μM⁻¹ cm⁻², respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied to pentoperazole and omeprazole determination in drug samples.

Dendrimer-rhodium nanoparticle modified glassy carbon electrode for amperometric detection of hydrogen peroxide

Metallic nanoparticles of rhodium were prepared by using the newly synthesized N,N-bis-succinamide-based dendrimer as stabilizers. The Rh nanoparticles were spherical shaped with a particle size of ∼2 nm. The dendrimer Rh-encapsulated nanoparticles (Rh-DENs) were immobilized on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and their electrocatalytic activity towards hydrogen peroxide reduction was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The Rh-DENs modified GCE showed excellent electrocatalytic activity for hydrogen peroxide reduction reactions. The steady-state cathodic current response of the modified electrode at −0.3 V (vs SCE) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) showed a linear response to hydrogen peroxide concentration ranging from 8 to 30 μM with a detection limit and sensitivity of 5 μM and 0.03103 × 10⁻⁶ A μM⁻¹, respectively.     

Simple and rapid determination of clonidine in pharmaceutical samples by voltammetry using a bare glassy carbon electrode

This work presents, for the first time, the voltammetric behavior of clonidine (CLO) drug and its determination, using an unmodified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). CLO exhibited only an irreversible oxidation process on the GCE, with peak potential at +0.85 V in pH 12 (vs Ag/AgCl). CLO oxidation process is pH-dependent and the electrochemical mechanisms on the GCE were proposed in acidic and basic medium. The determination of CLO was optimized in 0.1 mol L⁻¹ phosphate buffer solution at pH 12.0 using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), which provides a good linear range (0.65 to 106.00 μmol L⁻¹) and low theoretical limit of detection (0.14 μmol L⁻¹) for the quality control of this drug in pharmaceutical samples. In addition, stable responses of CLO at the GCE were obtained in the same day (RSD = 3.4 %; n = 5) and different days (RSD = 2.0 %; n = 3). Moreover, the determination of CLO in a pharmaceutical formulation using the proposed GCE-DPV method presented good accuracy, since the recovery was close to 100 % and the dosing result was in agreement with an official method (HPLC-UV). The proposed method demonstrates a good analytical performance for CLO determination in pharmaceutical samples, providing a faster, simpler and lower-cost alternative for quality control of CLO than other reported methods.

Voltammetric oxidation and determination of cinnarizine at glassy carbon electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes

We discovered a novel method to prepare a protein-based hydrogel, that is, a “Three-Dimensional Nanostructured Protein Hydrogel (3D NPH)”, which is composed of protein–polymer hybrid nanoparticles. In this study, we propose a novel protein microarray whose 3D NPH spots were prepared by dispensing a small volume of the solution of protein–polymer mixture on a substrate. The dispensed solution had a short time for cross-linking before its drying-up and the resulting 3D NPH had loosely cross-linked, thin spongy structure. Therefore, the reaction ratio between ligands and analytes was drastically improved in this system compared with the large volume system for Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) protein microarray.     

Determination of sulfonamides in milk samples by HPLC with amperometric detection using a glassy carbon electrode modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes

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. Optimal conditions for the quantitative separation of selected sulfonamides were studied, and glassy carbon electrodes with and without modification with carbon nanotubes were systematically investigated as electrodic materials. Statistical analysis of the obtained results demonstrated that these modified electrodes achieved considerably better stability and sensitivity than the conventional unmodified ones. Detection limits were in the 1.2–6.0 ng/mL range. The usefulness of the method was demonstrated by the analysis of milk samples, taking into account the European legislation on residues in food products, following both a screening method to classify the samples and a confirmation method to provide more detailed information in the case of positive samples.
