Abstract

An electrochemical oxidation of acetaminophen (ACOP) has been successfully performed by using glassy carbon electrode covered with 4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (4HQ3CA) to reinforce electrode's feature. To characterize the modified electrode (4HQ3CA/GC), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques were used. The finding optimum conditions (supporting electrolyte, pH) and the electrochemical determination studies were performed with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). It was decided that the supporting electrolyte medium suitable for ACOP determination was Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer and the effect of pH change on the oxidation peak of ACOP in this media was investigated. The effect of changing scan rate on the oxidation peak of ACOP was examined and this study showed that the oxidation process of ACOP on the 4HQ3CA/GC modified electrode surface was diffusion and adsorption controlled process. A wide concentration range from 0.0025 mu M to 141 mu M with a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.98x10(-10) M (3 s/m) was obtained. This prepared sensor was carried out for the determination of ACOP in pharmaceutical sample.
