OH functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube modified electrode as electrochemical sensor for the detection of Aceclofenac

摘要

The rapid electrochemical determination of Aceclofenac (ACF) has been employed by cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using developed OH-functionalised multiwalled carbon nanotube carbon paste electrode (OH-MWCNT/CPE). Modified electrode was characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The ACF exhibits two oxidation peaks at +0.4 V, +0.66 V and one reduction peak at +0.3 V. The active surface area of the bare carbon paste electrode (BCPE) and modified electrode have been characterised by using K-3[Fe(CN)(6)] solution containing 0.1 M KCl. In DPV mode, variation of ACF gave the limit of detection (LOD = 3s/m) 0.246 i1/4M over the concentration range 1.0 to 190.0 mu M (R-2 = 0.9994). The developed electrode has good stability, reproducibility and could be successfully validated for the detection of ACF in pharmaceutical samples and biological fluids.
