Stripping voltammetric determination of pyridine-2-aldoxime methochloride at the iron(III) doped zeolite modified glassy carbon electrode.

An iron(III) doped zeolite modified glassy carbon electrode was constructed for the determination of pyridine-2-aldoxime methochloride. X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis were utilized to determine the optimum pH and chemical content for doping zeolite. Cyclic voltammetry was used to characterize the modified electrode and study the kinetics of the acid treated and untreated modified electrode. Acid treatment of the modified electrode showed a better electrochemical behavior compared to the untreated iron(III) doped zeolite modified electrode. Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry was employed to investigate the working pH and preconcentration time. The analytical performance of the modified electrode was evaluated, and a linear anodic stripping response for pyridine-2-aldoxime methochloride in the concentration range of 0.5-100.0 µM with a detection limit of 1.61 × 10(-7) M was obtained. Finally, the developed method was successfully applied for the determination of pyridine-2-aldoxime methochloride in a biological sample.

Simultaneous determination of N-acetyl-p-aminophenol and p-aminophenol with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) modified glassy carbon electrode.

A sensitive and selective method was developed for the determination of N-acetyl-p-aminophenol (APAP) and p-aminophenol (PAP) using poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry were used to investigate the electrochemical reaction of APAP and PAP at the modified electrode. Both APAP and PAP showed quasireversible redox reactions with formal potentials of 367 mV and 101 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl), respectively, in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.0. The significant peak potential difference (266 mV) between APAP and PAP enabled the simultaneous determination both species based on differential pulse voltammetry. The voltammetric responses gave linear ranges of 1.0×10(-6)-1.0×10(-4) mol L(-1) and 4.0×10(-6)-3.2×10(-4) mol L(-1), with detection limits of 4.0×10(-7) mol L(-1) and 1.2×10(-6) mol L(-1) for APAP and PAP, respectively. The method was successfully applied for the determination of APAP and PAP in pharmaceutical formulations and biological samples.
