چکیده
Voltamogramas cíclicos de nitazoxanida medidos no eletrodo de gota de mercúrio no tampão universal Britton-Robinson com valores de pH de 2 a 11 contendo 20% (v/v) de etanol exibiram um único pico catódico irreversível de 4-elétrons, correspondendo à redução de seu grupo NO 2 para hidroxilamina. Observou-se que a nitazoxanida adsorve na superfície do eletrodo de mercúrio numa monocamada com cobertura superficial de 3,16 × 10 mol cm na qual cada molécula adsorvida ocupa uma área de 0.525 nm. Baseado no seu comportamento de adsorção na superfície do eletrodo de mercúrio, métodos voltamétricos validados ‘stripping’ catódico adsortivo com varredura linear (VL), pulso diferencial (PD) e onda quadrada (OQ) foram descritos para determinação de nitazoxanida no seio da solução. Limites de deteção de 1,5×10, 2,4×10 e 3,0×10 mol L e limites de quantificação de nitazoxanida de 5,0×10, 8,0×10 e 1,0×10 mol L no seio da solução foram obtidos a partir dos métodos VVL, VPD e VOQ descritos acima, respectivamente. Os métodos descritos foram aplicados com sucesso para a determinação de nitazoxanida em sua formulação farmacêutica (pó de Cryptonaz) e em serum humano sem a necessidade de pré-tratramento da amostra, etapas de extração ou a formação de cromógenos coloridos antes da análise. Além disto, determinou-se nitazoxanida com sucesso e sem interferência de produtos de degradação induzidos por ácido ou base, indicando a estabilidade e poder dos métodos voltamétricos descritos.

An easy, rapid and selective adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) method for the determination of vincamine in its formulation and human serum was developed and validated. It was based on the oxidation of the drug onto a Nujol-based carbon paste electrode. The stripping step was carried out by using a square-wave (SW) potential-time voltammetric excitation signal. The optimal experimental va...
