CuO-nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode for square wave voltammetric determination of lidocaine: Comparing classical and Box–Behnken optimization methodologies

In this research, copper oxide nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode was developed for the voltammetric determination of lidocaine. The square wave voltammogram of lidocaine solution showed a well-defined peak between +0.5 and +1.5 V. Instrumental and chemical parameters influencing voltammetric response were optimized by both one at a time and Box–Behnken model of response surface methodology. The results revealed that there was no significant difference between two methods of optimization. The linear range was 1–2500 μmol L~(-1)(Ip= 0.11 C_(LH)+ 17.38, R~2= 0.999). The LOD and LOQ based on three and ten times of the signal to noise(S/N) were 0.39 and 1.3 μmol L~(-1)(n = 10),respectively. The precision of the method was assessed for 10 replicate square wave voltammetry(SWV)determinations each of 0.05, 0.5 and 1 μmol L~(-1) of lidocaine showing relative standard deviations 4.1%,3.7% and 2.1%, respectively. The reliability of the proposed method was established by application of the method for the determination of lidocaine in two pharmaceutical preparations, namely injection and gel.

Instrumental and chemical parameters influencing voltammetric response were optimized by both one at a time and Box-Behnken model of response surfacemethodology. The results revealed that there was no significant difference between twomethods of optimization. The linear range was 1-2500 mmol L^-1(I_p = 0.11C_LH + 17.38, R² = 0.999). The LOD and LOQ based on three and ten times of the signal to noise (S/N) were 0.39 and 1.3 mmol L^-1 (n = 10), respectively.
