Abstract
Acetaminophen, also known as paracetamol (APAP), is a commonly used over-the-counter medication that is often used to treat headaches, toothaches, joint pain, muscle pain, and to lower body temperature. However, overdose can lead to liver damage, gastrointestinal distress, kidney damage, and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, it is very important to establish a method to quickly detect APAP. A novel "ON-OFF-ON" colorimetric and fluorescence dual-signal sensing system was constructed for the quantitative detection of APAP based on 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulphonatophenyl) porphyrin (TSPP) dual-signal probe. The absorbance and fluorescence intensity of TSPP respectively were quenched when Fe3+ was introduced into TSPP solution. At this point, the color of the corresponding solution changed from red to green. The absorbance and fluorescence intensity of TSPP respectively were restored when APAP was added to the TSPP-Fe3+ system. At this time, the color of the solution changed from green to colorless. Therefore, an "ON-OFF-ON" dual-signal sensing study of APAP were constructed using TSPP as the colorimetric and fluorescent probe. The proposed colorimetric sensing system had a wide linear range in the 13.12 mM ∼ 23.20 mM with 0.11 mM of limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3). And the proposed fluorescence sensing system had a wide linear range in the 3.45 mM ∼ 12.50 mM and 41.67 mM ∼ 65.22 mM with 0.83 mM of limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3). The dual-signal sensing system were applied to the APAP detection of real samples.

[PMID: 39105038 PMCID: PMC11298566 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.63925] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Background In recent years, significant advancements have been made in various scientific sectors, particularly in healthcare and pharmaceutical research. This progress has been driven by the development of enhanced sensing materials and methodologies. Electrochemical sensing has become an important tool in detecting and analyzing drug molecules due to its high sensitivity, specificity, and rapid response times. Among various drugs, paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is widely used for its analgesic and antipyretic properties. Accurate detection of paracetamol is crucial due to its widespread use and potential for overdose, which can lead to severe liver damage. Copper molybdate (CuMoO4) is a transition metal oxide that has garnered attention for its excellent electrical conductivity and electrochemical stability. These properties make it a promising candidate for use in electrochemical sensors. The ability of CuMoO4 to act as a sensor material is enhanced by its unique structural and morphological characteristics, which can be tailored during synthesis. Aim This study aimed to synthesize CuMoO4 and investigate its electrochemical sensing capability for the detection of drug molecules, specifically paracetamol. Materials and method CuMoO4 was synthesized using a precipitation method that did not involve any surfactants. This approach was chosen to simplify the synthesis process and avoid potential contamination from surfactants. The morphology of the synthesized CuMoO4 nanoparticles was investigated using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) confirmed the purity of the CuMoO4 nanomaterial. Structural analysis was performed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). To evaluate the electrochemical sensing capability of CuMoO4 for paracetamol, Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was employed. DPV is a sensitive electrochemical technique that can detect changes in current response corresponding to the presence of analytes. Results The synthesized CuMoO4 exhibited a rock-like structure, as revealed by FE-SEM imaging. This morphology is advantageous for electrochemical applications due to the increased surface area available for interaction with analytes. EDX confirmed the purity of the CuMoO4 nanomaterial, showing no significant impurities. XRD analysis indicated that the CuMoO4 nanoparticles were crystalline in nature, which is beneficial for consistent and reproducible electrochemical behavior. The DPV analysis demonstrated that the CuMoO4 sensor exhibited a linear increase in current response with increasing concentrations of paracetamol. This linear relationship indicates that CuMoO₄ is capable of detecting paracetamol effectively, with a strong and quantifiable signal response. Conclusion The CuMoO4 nanomaterial was successfully synthesized using a simple precipitation method and was characterized by its rock-like morphology and crystalline structure. Electrochemical testing using DPV showed that CuMoO4 has excellent sensing capabilities for detecting paracetamol, with a clear and linear current response. These findings suggest that CuMoO4 is a promising electrochemical sensing material for drug detection, potentially offering a reliable and efficient method for monitoring paracetamol and possibly other pharmaceuticals in various settings.

Abstract
The study of electrochemical reactivity requires analytical techniques capable of probing the diffusion of reactants and products to and from electrified interfaces. Information on diffusion coefficients is often obtained indirectly by modeling current transients and cyclic voltammetry data, but such measurements lack spatial resolution and are accurate only if mass transport by convection is negligible. Detecting and accounting for adventitious convection in viscous and wet solvents, such as ionic liquids, is technically challenging. We have developed a direct, spatiotemporally resolved optical tracking of diffusion fronts which can detect and resolve convective disturbances to linear diffusion. By tracking the movement of an electrode-generated fluorophore, we demonstrate that parasitic gas evolving reactions lead to 10-fold overestimates of macroscopic diffusion coefficients. A hypothesis is put forward linking large barriers to inner-sphere redox reactions, such as hydrogen gas evolution, to the formation of cation-rich overscreening and crowding double layer structures in imidazolium-based ionic liquids.

Abstract
The interaction of carbon-based nanomaterials and ionic liquids (ILs) has been thoroughly exploited for diverse electroanalytical solutions since the first report in 2003. This combination, either through covalent or non-covalent functionalization, takes advantage of the unique characteristics inherent to each material, resulting in synergistic effects that are conferred to the electrochemical (bio)sensing system. From one side, carbon nanomaterials offer miniaturization capacity with enhanced electron transfer rates at a reduced cost, whereas from the other side, ILs contribute as ecological dispersing media for the nanostructures, improving conductivity and biocompatibility. The present review focuses on the use of this interesting type of nanocomposites for the development of (bio)sensors specifically for pharmaceutical detection, with emphasis on the analytical (bio)sensing features. The literature search displayed the conjugation of more than 20 different ILs and several carbon nanomaterials (MWCNT, SWCNT, graphene, carbon nanofibers, fullerene, and carbon quantum dots, among others) that were applied for a large set (about 60) of pharmaceutical compounds. This great variability causes a straightforward comparison between sensors to be a challenging task. Undoubtedly, electrochemical sensors based on the conjugation of carbon nanomaterials with ILs can potentially be established as sustainable analytical tools and viable alternatives to more traditional methods, especially concerning in situ environmental analysis.
