This article is focused on the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride as a local anaesthetic drug. A potentiometric method based on modified screen-printed and modified carbon paste ion-selective electrodes was described for the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride in different pharmaceutical preparations. It was based on potentiometric titration of lidocaine hydrochloride using modified ...

The potentiometric response characteristics and analytical applications of a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)-free all-solid-state ion-selective electrode for chlorhexidine (CHX) are examined and compared to those of PVC-based solid-state electrode. The PVCfree electrode is prepared by direct incorporation of chlorhexidine-tetraphenyl borate (CHXTPB) as a sensing element into a commercial nail varnis...

A new chemically modified carbon paste electrode for cesium(I) ion determination based on potassium zinc hexacyanoferrate (PZHCF) as an ionophore was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian response for Cs(I) ions over a wide concentration range from 1 × 10 to 1 × 10 mol·L with a slope of 58 ± 0.5 mV·decade. It has a response time of about 35 s and can be used for a period of 3 months with...

The theory of three step electrode reaction is developed for square wave voltammetry on stationary spherical electrodes. It was assumed that all electroactive species are solution soluble. The dependence of the response on the thermodynamic stability of intermediates, on the electrode radius and the scan direction is investigated for the fast and reversible electrode reactions. The criterion of...

By simultaneously measuring the bulk media and electrode interface voltages of a yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) suspension subjected to an AC voltage, a yeast-dependent nonlinear response was found only near the current injection electrodes. Computer simulation of yeast near a current injection electrode found an enhanced voltage drop across the yeast near the electrode due to slowed charging...

A silver ion-selective electrode was prepared with a polymeric membrane incorporating 2,6-bis-methylsulfanyl-[1,3,5]thiadiazine-4-thione as an ionophore, tri-n-butylphosphate (TBP) as a plasticizer and sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) as an additive. The electrode exhibited a near-Nernstian response of 52 mV/decade over a wide linear concentration range of 1.0 x 10(-5) - 1.0 x 10(-1) M with a l...

A new modified palm shell activated carbon paste electrode based on 1,13-Bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane, 8,8-(1,4,7,10,13-Pentaoxatridecylene)-diquinoline (Kryptofix5) and plasticizing agent was prepared and studied as Hg selective electrode. The best performance was observed with the electrode composition having the ionophore-palm shell activated carbon-plasticizer composition 1...

Potentiometric sensor based on commercial pencil graphite electrodes coated with polyaniline (PAni) composite with Eosin Y (EY) termed as PGE/PAni-EY have been developed for potentiometric determination of silver ion. The electrode exhibited linear response with Nernstian slope of 57.6±0.8 mV per decade within the range of 1.0×10 to 1.0×10 M with limit of detection 6.5×10 M silver ion. Fast and...
