Determination of urine ionic composition with potentiometric multisensor system

Determination of urine ionic composition with potentiometric multisensor system.

The ionic composition of urine is a good indicator of patient's general condition and allows for diagnostics of certain medical problems such as e.g., urolithiasis. Due to environmental factors and malnutrition the number of registered urinary tract cases continuously increases. Most of the methods currently used for urine analysis are expensive, quite laborious and require skilled personnel. T...

Ofloxacin determination in urine, serum and pharmaceuticals using an automatic flow potentiometric system.

An automatic system was developed to determine ofloxacin in biological fluids and pharmaceutical formulations. Drug detection was carried out by a potentiometric membrane sensor based on [bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate as molecular-recognition material. The tubular shaped detector system was solidly attached to the manifold, creating a high-throughput stable setup (50 samples per hour) appro...

Simultaneous Determination of Thiocyanate and Oxalate in Urine using a Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode Modified with TiO2-Fe Nanoparticles

A carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) modified with TiO2-Fe nanoparticles was constructed by incorporating TiO2-Fe nanoparticles into the paste matrix. Under the optimized experimental conditions, using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), the oxidation of thiocyanate and oxalate were occurred at potentials of 0.740 V and 1.010 V, respectively, at the surface of the modi...

A Sensitive Electrochemical Sensor for Determination of Imipramine in Urine Sample Using Carbon Ionic Liquid Electrode Modified With Montomorillonite Nanoclay

We used an effective electrochemical sensor for the determination of imipramine at pH 7.2 using a carbon nanocomposite electrode. The electrode has been designed by incorporation of montmorillonite nanoclay into the carbon ionic liquid electrode. The high sensitivity of 1.714 μA (μM)-1, two linear calibration ranges of 0.1–2 μM and 2-40 μM, and detection limit of 19 nM were achieved. The relati...
