Sonochemically Recovered Aluminum Oxide Nanoparticles from Domestic Aluminum Wastes as a Highly Stable Electrocatalyst for Proton-Pump Inhibitor (Omeprazole) Detection

Abstract

In this article, our group has recovered aluminum oxide nanoparticles (Al 2 O 3 NPs) from domestic aluminum wastes through a facile sonochemical methodology. The morphological features of Al 2 O 3 NPs were explored by FE-SEM, TEM and finally, purity of the as-recovered Al 2 O 3 NPs were confirmed by XPS and XRD. The as-recovered Al 2 O 3 NPs were utilized for the specific and sensitive detection of omeprazole (OMZ), which comes under the class of proton-pump inhibitor. Under the well-optimized conditions, the calibration curve with good correlation coefficient was attained at Al 2 O 3 NPs/GCE towards the detection of OMZ, which portrayed the wider linear range of 0.005-1247 μM, with the lowest detection limit of 0.91 nM. These results suggested that the Al 2 O 3 NPs/GCE, exhibited sensitive detection ability towards omeprazole.

“…3 Among many other uses, many of these drug compounds are widely served as antiepileptics, analgesics, disinfectants, anti-inflammatories, lipid regulators, antiseptics, and antibiotics. 4,5 Pharmaceutical pollutants bioaccumulate, contain the phenolic group at the conspicuous site, and are recalcitrant. Drug intermediates are often encountered in aquatic environments.…”

“…Life in the modern era is inextricably associated with the rapid development of globalization that leads society toward the massive use of emergent pollutants. , As one of several emerging pollutants, it has become progressively more ostensive that pharmaceutical compounds found in water severely negatively impact the environment . Among many other uses, many of these drug compounds are widely served as antiepileptics, analgesics, disinfectants, anti-inflammatories, lipid regulators, antiseptics, and antibiotics. , Pharmaceutical pollutants bioaccumulate, contain the phenolic group at the conspicuous site, and are recalcitrant. Drug intermediates are often encountered in aquatic environments. − This ubiquitous nature of noxious products has adverse toxicological effects on the environment’s well-being. , Among the abundant active pharmaceutical substances, one of the most frequently prescribed anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic drugs worldwide is acetaminophen, also known as acetaminophen ( N -acetyl- p -aminophenol/ATP). , ATP functions as an efficient pain reliever, and thus, it is extensively utilized to treat fever, muscular aches, headache, cancer pain, and backache in humans. − The excessive oral intake of ATP tablets instigates liver functions to fail, eventually leading to death by releasing 58 to 68% of its content into the body .…”

“…However, the high cost, tedious procedure, prolonged duration, and the requirement of skilled personnel encompassed by these techniques make them less attractive for biosensing applications. , Compared to many conventional techniques, electrochemical sensors can be devised via simple and cost-efficient technologies. Additionally, electrochemical systems can detect a wide variety of metal ions and inorganic, organic, ionic, or neutral compounds. − High-performance electrochemical sensing technologies provide sensitive, rapid, and cost-effective solutions for detecting various analytes. − Nevertheless, electrochemical sensing presents significant analytical challenges because of its high overpotential requirement, reversibility, and interference from byproducts, making it insufficient for precise sensing. To mitigate these issues, the electrode surface is often modified with various materials such as metal-oxide nanoparticles, carbon materials, dichalcogenides, and so on.…”
