[PMID: 37622915 PMCID: PMC10452116 DOI: 10.3390/bios13080829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
Nifedipine, a widely utilized medication, plays a crucial role in managing blood pressure in humans. Due to its global prevalence and extensive usage, close monitoring is necessary to address this widespread concern effectively. Therefore, the development of an electrochemical sensor based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon nanofibers and gold nanoparticles in a Nafion® film was performed, resulting in an active electrode surface for oxidation of the nifedipine molecule. This was applied, together with a voltammetric methodology, for the analysis of nifedipine in biological and environmental samples, presenting a linear concentration range from 0.020 to 2.5 × 10-6 µmol L-1 with a limit of detection 2.8 nmol L-1. In addition, it presented a good recovery analysis in the complexity of the samples, a low deviation in the presence of interfering potentials, and good repeatability between measurements.

Abstract
Nowadays, the rapid improvements in the medical and pharmaceutical fields increase the diversity and use of drugs. However, problems such as the use of multiple or combined drugs in the treatment of diseases and insensible use of over-the-counter drugs have caused concerns about the side-effect profiles and therapeutic ranges of drugs and environmental contamination and pollution problems due to pharmaceuticals waste. Therefore, the analysis of drugs in various media such as biological, pharmaceutical, and environmental samples is an important topic of discussion. Electrochemical methods are advantageous for sensor applications due to their easy application, low cost, versatility, high sensitivity, and environmentally-friendliness. Carbon nanomaterials such as diamond-like carbon thin films, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, graphene oxide, and nanodiamonds are used to enhance the performance of the electrochemical sensors with catalytic effects. To further improve this effect, it is aimed to create hybrid platforms by using different carbon nanomaterials together or with materials such as conductive polymers and ionic liquids. In this review, the most used carbon nanoforms will be evaluated in terms of electrochemical characterizations and physicochemical properties. Furthermore, the effect of hybrid platforms developed in the most recent studies on electrochemical sensors will be examined and evaluated in terms of drug analysis studies in the last five years.

Sensitive and selective electrochemical determination of uric acid in urine based on ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles decorated urchin-like nitrogen-doped carbon. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 216:112538. [PMID: 35526390 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Hypercrosslinked pyrrole was synthesized via the Friedel-Crafts reaction and then carbonized to obtain urchin-like nitrogen-doped carbon (UNC). Ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles were then supported on UNC, and the composite was used to prepare an electrochemical sensor for detecting uric acid (UA) in human urine. FexOy/UNC was characterized and analyzed via scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with FexOy/UNC was used as an electrochemical sensor to effectively identify UA. The electrochemical behavior of the FexOy/UNC-based UA sensor was studied using differential pulse stripping voltammetry, and the optimal conditions were determined by changing the amount of FexOy/UNC, pH of the buffer solution, deposition potential, and deposition time. Under optimal conditions, the FexOy/UNC-based electrochemical sensor detected UA in the range of 2-200 μM, where the limit of detection (LOD) for UA was 0.29 μM. Anti-interference experiments were performed, and the sensor was applied to the actual analysis of human urine samples. Urea, glucose, ascorbic acid, and many cations and anions present at 100-fold concentrations relative to UA did not strongly interfere with the response of the sensor to UA. The FexOy/UNC electrochemical sensor has high sensitivity and selectivity for uric acid in human urine samples and can be used for actual clinical testing of UA in urine.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 211:112313. [PMID: 34990880 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2021.112313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
A unique near-spherical ZnO nanostructure was synthesized by using mixed solvents composed of polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400) and water at the volume ratio of 12:1 via the solvo-thermal method, and it possessed an ideal morphology with higher uniformity, better dispersion and small particle size. Such ZnO was employed to modify glass carbon electrode (GCE) for the construction of electrochemical sensor, i.e. near-spherical ZnO/GCE, whose nitrite sensing performance was evaluated by Chronoamperometry (CA) and Linear Sweep Voltammetry (LSV). In order to emphasis the superior sensing property and extensive suitability for different electrochemical detection techniques, the excellent but not the same nitrite detection performance obtained from CA and LSV was individually given in detail. This sensor based on CA showed broad linearity range of 0.6 μM-0.22 mM and 0.46 mM-5.5 mM, improved sensitivity of 0.785 μA μM-1 cm-2 accompanied with low LOD of 0.39 μM. With regard to LSV, wide linearity response of 1.9 μM-0.8 mM and 1.08 mM-5.9 mM, high sensitivity of 0.646 μA μM-1 cm-2 with LOD of 0.89 μM were obtained. Meanwhile, this sensor displayed outstanding repeatability with RSD of 2.96% (n = 4), high reproducibility with low RSD (1.72%-2.35%, n = 4), strong selectivity towards nitrite with the concentration set at one-tenth of the interfering substances, ideal stability with the peak current intensity above 90% of its initial value after storage for one month and acceptable recovery of 1.72-2.35% to actual samples including ham sausage, pickle and tap water. The near-spherical ZnO nanomaterial may be a preferred candidate for the fabrication of nitrite electrochemical sensor, which may exhibit a fascinating application in terms of food analysis and environmental monitoring.
