Abstract

In this study, the electrochemical determination of the amodiaquine (ADQ) drug was evaluated using an electrochemically pretreated boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode due to the enhanced surface activity. The cyclic voltammogram results of ADQ were given as single reversible and diffusion-controlled peaks at +0.48 V for the oxidation peak and +0.05 V for the reduction peak (vs. Ag/AgCl) in Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer at pH 8.0. The peak potential and current signals of ADQ were evaluated at the surface of the BDD electrode using instrumental parameters to develop a simple method for ADQ detection. Also, the effect of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), on the adsorption applicability of the BDD electrode significantly increased the stripping voltammetric determination of ADQ. Under the optimal conditions chosen and employing square-wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry at the BDD electrode, ADQ was determined at + 0.34 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) at the open-circuit condition in BR buffer at pH 8.0 in the presence of 2·10–4 mol l–1 SDS. Furthermore, analytical parameters showed the linear relationship for ADQ determination in the concentration range of 0.1–20.0 μg ml–1 (2.2·10–7 – 4.3·10–5 mol l–1), with a detection limit of 0.03 μg ml–1 (6.5·10–8 mol l–1). The proposed approach can be applied to determine ADQ in water samples.
