Selected AbstractsElectroanalytical Determination of Promethazine Hydrochloride in Pharmaceutical Formulations on Highly Boron-Doped Diamond Electrodes Using Square-Wave Adsorptive VoltammetryELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 18 2008Francisco, Wirley Abstract The electrochemical oxidation of promethazine hydrochloride was made on highly boron-doped diamond electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry experiments showed that the oxidation mechanisms involved the formation of an adsorbed product that is more readily oxidized, producing a new peak with lower potential values whose intensity can be increased by applying the accumulation potential for given times. The parameters were optimized and the highest current intensities were obtained by applying +0.78,V for 30 seconds. The square-wave adsorptive voltammetry results obtained in BR buffer showed two well-defined peaks, dependent on the pH and on the voltammetric parameters. The best responses were obtained at pH,4.0, frequency of 50,s,1, step of 2,mV, and amplitude of 50,mV. Under these conditions, linear responses were obtained for concentrations from 5.96×10,7 to 4.76×10,6,mol L,1, and calculated detection limits of 2.66×10,8,mol L,1 (8.51,,g L,1) for peak 1 and of 4.61×10,8,mol L,1 (14.77,,g L,1) for peak 2. The precision and accuracy were evaluated by repeatability and reproducibility experiments, which yielded values of less than 5.00% for both voltammetric peaks. The applicability of this procedure was tested on commercial formulations of promethazine hydrochloride by observing the stability, specificity, recovery and precision of the procedure in complex samples. All results obtained were compared to recommended procedure by British Pharmacopeia. The voltammetric results indicate that the proposed procedure is stable and sensitive, with good reproducibility even when the accumulation steps involve short times. It is therefore very suitable for the development of the electroanalytical procedure, providing adequate sensitivity and a reliable method. [source] Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination of Uric Acid on Carbon-Coated Iron Nanoparticle Modified Glassy Carbon ElectrodesELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 10 2008Shengfu Wang Abstract A carbon-coated iron nanoparticles (CIN, a new style fullerence related nanomaterial) modified glassy carbon electrode (CIN/GCE) has been developed for the determination of uric acid (UA). Electrochemical behaviors of UA on CIN/GCE were explored by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). It was found that the voltammetric response of UA on CIN/GC was enhanced dramatically because of the strong accumulation effect of CIN and the large working area of the CIN/GC electrode. The parameters including the pH of supporting electrolyte, accumulation potential and time, that govern the analytical performance of UA have been studied and optimized. The DPV signal of UA on CIN/GCE increased linearly with its concentration in the range from 5.0×10,7 to 2.0×10,5 M, with a detection limit of 1.5×10,7 M (S/N=3). The CIN/GCE was used for the determination of UA in samples with satisfactory results. The proposed CIN/GCE electrochemical sensing platform holds great promise for simple, rapid, and accurate detection of UA. [source] Stripping Voltammetry of Cerium(IIl) with a Chemically Modified Carbon Paste Electrode Containing Functionalized Nanoporous Silica GelELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 2 2008Mehran Javanbakht Abstract This research introduces the design of an adsorptive stripping voltammetric method for the cerium(III) determination at a carbon paste electrode, chemically modified with dipyridyl-functionalized nanoporous silica gel (DPNSG-CPE). The electroanalytical procedure comprised two steps: the Ce(III) chemical accumulation at ,200,mV followed by the electrochemical detection of the Ce(III)/dipyridyl complex, using anodic stripping voltammetry. The factors, influencing the adsorptive stripping performance, were optimized including the modifier quantity in the paste, the electrolyte concentrations, the solution pH and the accumulation potential or time. The resulting electrode demonstrated a linear response over a wide range of Ce(III) concentration (1.0,28,ng mL,1). The precision for seven determinations of 4 and 10,ng mL,1 Ce(III) was 3.2% and 2.5% (relative standard deviation), respectively. The prepared electrode was used for the cerium determination in real samples and very good recovery results were obtained. [source] DNA Determination in the Presence of Copper in Diluted Alkaline Electrolyte by Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry at the Mercury Film ElectrodeELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 11 2007Augusto, Mardini Farias, Percio Abstract A stripping method for the determination of single-stranded DNA in presence of copper at the submicromolar concentration levels is described. The method is based on controlled adsorptive accumulation of adenine (from acid-treated DNA) at thin-film mercury electrode followed by linear scan voltammetry measurement of the surface species. Optimum experimental conditions were found to be the use of a 5.0×10,3,M NaOH solution, an accumulation potential of ,0.40,V and a scan rate of 200,mV s,1. The response of adenine,copper is linear over the concentration range 50,250,ppb. For an accumulation time of 15,minutes, the detection limit was found to be 4,ppb. The more convenient relation to measuring the ssDNA in presence of metals and nitrogenated bases were also investigated. The utility of the method is demonstrated by the presence of adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) and amino acids. [source] Highly Sensitive and Selective Measurement of Bismuth in Seawater and Drug with 1,2-Phenylenedioxydiacetic Acid by Cathodic Adsorptive Stripping VoltammetryELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 7 2006B. Gholivand Abstract A new method is presented for determination of bismuth based on cathodic adsorptive stripping of complex bismuth with 1,2-phenylenedioxydiacetic acid (PDA) at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The effect of various parameters such as pH, concentration of ligand, accumulation potential and accumulation time on the selectivity and sensitivity were studied. The optimum conditions for determination of bismuth include nitric acid concentration 0.01,M, 8.0×10,4,M PDA and accumulation time 120,s, accumulation potential of ,200,mV. The limits of detection are 0.25 and 0.05,nM, and responses are linear 1,1000 and 0.1,400,nM at tacc of 60 and 120,s, respectively. Many common anions and cations do not interfere in the determination of bismuth. The method was applied to the determination of bismuth in some real samples such as sea , and spring water and drug. [source] Simultaneous Determination of Copper and Bismuth by Anodic Stripping Voltammetry Using H-Point Standard Addition Method with Simultaneous Addition of AnalytesELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 17 2005Esmaeil Shams Abstract Simultaneous determination of bismuth and copper by anodic stripping voltammetry using H-point standard addition method (HPSAM) with simultaneous addition of analytes is described. The effect of various parameters including acid concentration, accumulation time, accumulation potential and concentration ratio of analytes in the standard solution on the sensitivity and accuracy of method were investigated. The results of applying the H-point standard addition method showed that Cu2+ and Bi3+ could be determined simultaneously with the concentration ratios of Cu2+ to Bi3+ varying from 1,:,15 to 16,:,1 in the mixed sample. The method was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of copper and bismuth in some synthetic mixtures. [source] Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry of Rifamycins at Unmodified and Surfactant-Modified Carbon Paste ElectrodesELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 20 2004Sonia Gutiérrez-Fernández Abstract The electrochemical behavior of the antibiotics rifampicin and rifamycin SV is investigated by cyclic voltammetry at carbon paste and in situ surfactant modified carbon paste electrodes. Both antibiotics adsorb on the unmodified electrodes and show a reversible redox process due to the oxidation of the 6,9-dihydroxynaphthalene moiety to the corresponding naphthoquinone. This process is used as analytical signal for developing adsorptive voltammetric methods for the determination of the antibiotics. Experimental parameters, such as pH of the supporting electrolyte, accumulation potential and time are optimized. After accumulation from acidic solutions (0.1,M KCl pH 2 or HCl 0.2,M) at ,0.1 or 0,V for 3,min, the differential pulse oxidation peak current changes linearly with the antibiotic concentration in the range 3.5×10,10,M ,5.4×10,9,M or 5×10,11,M ,1.0×10,9,M for rifampicin and rifamycin SV, respectively. Rifamycin SV is not accumulated on carbon paste electrodes modified in situ with the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate, whereas rifampicin is readily accumulated on this modified electrodes resulting in a signal enhancement and allowing rifampicin determinations without interference from rifamycin SV. On the other hand, selective determination of rifamycin SV in the presence of rifampicin is achieved by using carbon paste electrodes in situ modified with the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium chloride. [source] Dietary accumulation of perfluorinated acids in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY & CHEMISTRY, Issue 1 2003Jonathan W. Martin Abstract Perfluorinated acids (PFAs) recently have emerged as persistent global contaminants after their detection in wildlife and humans from various geographic locations. The highest concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonate are characteristically observed in high trophic level organisms, indicating that PFAs may have a significant bioaccumulation potential. To examine this phenomenon quantitatively, we exposed juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) simultaneously to a homologous series of perfluoroalkyl carboxylates and sulfonates for 34 d in the diet, followed by a 41-d depuration period. Carcass and liver concentrations were determined by using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and kinetic rates were calculated to determine compound-specific bioaccumulation parameters. Depuration rate constants ranged from 0.02 to 0.23/d, and decreased as the length of the fluorinated chain increased. Assimilation efficiency was greater than 50% for all test compounds, indicating efficient absorption from food. Bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) ranged from 0.038 to 1.0 and increased with length of the perfluorinated chain; however, BAFs were not statistically greater than 1 for any PFA. Sulfonates bioaccumulated to a greater extent than carboxylates of equivalent perfluoroalkyl chain length, indicating that hydrophobicity is not the sole determinant of PFA accumulation potential and that the acid function must be considered. Dietary exposure will not result in biomagnification of PFAs in juvenile trout, but extrapolation of these bioaccumulation parameters to larger fish and homeothermic organisms should not be performed.

Norouzi Abstract An easy and fast Fourier transform continuous cyclic voltammetric technique for monitoring of ultra trace amounts of naltrexone in a flow-injection system has been introduced in this work. The potential waveform, consisting of the potential steps for cleaning, stripping and potential ramp, was continuously applied on an Au disk microelectrode (with a 12.5 µm in radius). The proposed detection method has some of advantages, the greatest of which are as follows: first, it is no more necessary to remove oxygen from the analyte solution and second, this is a very fast and appropriate technique for determination of the drug compound in a wide variety of chromatographic analysis methods. The method was linear over the concentration range of 0.34,34000 pg/mL (r,=,0.9985) with a limit of detection 8.0,×,10,4 nM. The method has the requisite accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and selectivity to assay naltrexone in tablets. The influences of pH of eluent, accumulation potential, sweep rate, and accumulation time on the determination of the naltrexone were considered. © 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc. and the American Pharmacists Association J Pharm Sci 96:2009,2017, 2007 [source] Monitoring of Anti Cancer Drug Letrozole by Fast Fourier Transform Continuous Cyclic Voltammetry at Gold MicroelectrodeCHINESE JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 7 2010Parviz Norouzi Abstract A continuous cyclic voltammetric study of letrozole at gold microelectrode was carried out. The drug in phosphate buffer (pH 2.0) is adsorbed at ,200 mV, giving rise to change in the current of well-defined oxidation peak of gold in the flow injection system. The proposed detection method has some of advantages, the greatest of which are as follows: first, it is no more necessary to remove oxygen from the analyte solution and second, this is a very fast and appropriate technique for determination of the drug compound in a wide variety of chromatographic analysis methods. Signal-to-noise ratio has significantly increased by application of discrete Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, background subtraction and two-dimensional integration of the electrode response over a selected potential range and time window. Also in this work some parameters such as sweep rate, eluent pH, and accumulation time and potential were optimized. The linear concentration range was of 1.0×10,7,1.0×10,10 mol/L (r=0.9975) with a limit of detection and quantitation 0.08 nmol/L and 0.15 nmol/L, respectively. The method has the requisite accuracy, sensitivity, precision and selectivity to assay letrozol in tablets. The influences of pH of eluent, accumulation potential, sweep rate, and accumulation time on the determination of the letrozol were considered. [source] | ||||||||||
