Effect of firing temperature on structural and electrical parameters of synthesized CeO2 thick films

Advanced Functionalized CeO2/Al2O3 Nanocomposite Sensor for Determination of Opioid Medication Tramadol Hydrochloride in Pharmaceutical Formulations

BACKGROUND

The exceptional characteristics of cerium oxide (CeO₂) and aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) nanoscales have inspired significant attention to those nanocomposites as possible electroactive resources for applications of sensing and biosensing.

METHODS

In this research, an innovative new factionalized CeO₂/Al₂O₃ nanocomposite membrane sensor was presented to assess tramadol hydrochloride (TRD) in marketable products.

RESULTS

Tramadol-phosphomolybdate (TRD-PM) was formed by mixing tramadol hydrochloride and phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) in the attendance of polymeric matrix and o-nitrophenyloctyl ether solvent mediator. With 1.0 × 10^-10-1.0 × 10^-2 mol L^-1 as a range of linearity and E_mV = (57.567 ± 0.2) log [TRD] + 676.29 as a regression equation, the functionalized sensor using TRD-PM-CeO₂/Al₂O₃ nanocomposite showed great selectivity and sensitivity for the discriminating and measurement of TRD. Using the regression equation E_mV = (52.143 ± 0.4) log [TRD] + 431.45, the unmodified coated wire sensor of TRD-PM, on the other hand, showed a Nernstian response between 1.0 × 10^-6 and 1.0 × 10^-2 mol L^-1, Using the methodology's specified guidelines, the proposed improved potentiometric system was validated against several criteria.

CONCLUSION

The suggested method is suitable for the determination of TRD in its products.
