Rapid and facile preparation of the cheap modified electrode materials is an important parameter in development of the efficient electrochemical sensor for industrial scale production and mass-market usage. In the present work, the carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared for sensitive determination of lead (Pb) ion in the presence of bismuth (Bi)...

In this review, we will briefly outline the voltammetric investigations of the transfer of ionisable drugs at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions. The voltammetric techniques enable the determination of some key in vitro properties of ionisable drugs, including partition coefficient, diffusion coefficient and membrane permeability. Some successful applications will be hig...

In this paper malachite green (MG) was used as a bioprobe to determine heparin concentration by linear sweep voltammetry on the dropping mercury working electrode (DME). In Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer solution of pH 1.5, MG had a well-defined second order derivative linear sweep voltammetric reductive peak at –0.618 V (vs. SCE). After the addition of heparin into the MG solution, the reductiv...

A simple and highly sensitive electrochemical method based on a 1,4-benzoquinone modified carbon paste electrode (1,4-BQMCPE) was described for the determination of tinidazole (TDZ). In Britton Robinson buffer solution, TDZ yields well-defined irreversible reduction peak at -0.344 V on a 1,4-BQMCPE. Compared with that on a bare CPE, the reduction peak of TDZ increased significantly on the modif...

Voltammetric measurements of dissolved surface-active substances in aqueous solutions, as specific commercial detergents, are described in the present paper. Two voltammetric methods based on the adsorption phenomena at mercury electrode/aqueous solution interface were performed in order to obtain the analytical signal for the detergent analysis. The first method was direct current polarography...

A novel voltammetric method for the determination of microamounts of fish sperm double-stranded (ds) DNA based on its interaction with phenosafranine (PSF) is proposed in this paper. In a pH 3.5 Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer solution, PSF had a well-defined second-order derivative linear-sweep voltammetric reductive peak at -0.32 V (vs. SCE) on a mercury electrode. After the addition of dsDNA i...

A simple and highly sensitive voltammetric method was developed for the determination of isoxsuprine HCl (I) and fenoterol HBr (II) in dosage forms and biological fluids. The method is based on treatment of the two compounds with nitrous acid followed by measuring the cathodic current produced by the resulting nitroso derivatives. The voltammetric behavior was studied adopting Direct Current (D...

A simple economic graphite pencil electrode (GPE) was used for analysis of cardioselective, hydrophilic-adrenoreceptor blocking agent, acebutolol (ACBT) using the cyclic voltammetric, linear sweep voltammetric, differential pulse voltammetric (DPV), and square-wave voltammetric (SWV) techniques. The dependence of the current on pH, concentration, and scan rate was investigated to optimize the e...

A simple and highly sensitive voltammetric method was developed for the determination of benazepril (I) and ramipril (II). The compounds were treated with nitrous acid, and the cathodic current produced by the resulting nitroso derivatives was measured. The voltammetric behavior was studied by adopting direct current (DCt), differential pulse (DPP), and alternating current (ACt) polarography. B...

Electrochemistry of lercanidipine (LCN) was investigated and its optimal conditions were evaluated based on the irreversible and diffusion-controlled electrochemical oxidation signal (+ 0.93 V) of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) versus Ag/AgCl in Britton Robinson buffer (BR) and ethanol mixture of pH 4.5. Electrochemical determination was performed by square wave anodic adsorptive stripping volt...
