Voltammetric determination of harmaline in natural food products using boron-doped diamond electrode

Mercury-free and modification-free electroanalytical approach towards bromazepam and alprazolam sensing: A facile and efficient assay for their quantification in pharmaceuticals using boron-doped diamond electrodes

“…DPV was applied as a sensitive voltammetric technique for the determination of BDZs with good significant resolution against the background current [13]. The optimization of the DPV operating parameters was performed to obtain the highest current densities for BZ and ALZ, thus ensuring the distinguished analytical sensitivity for their individual determination on BDDEs.…”

“…Electroanalytical methods represent financially unassuming, temporally efficient and sensitive tool for detection and determination of various structurally and biologically interesting substances [12,13]. The literature survey states that hanging mercury drop electrodes (HMDE) [14][15][16] and silver solid amalgam electrode (AgSAE) [17] have been applied to sensitive determination of several BDZs derivatives based on their electrochemical reduction.…”

“…Apart from these properties, it yields excellent biocompatibility, mechanical robustness and stability in alkaline and acidic media [25,26]. BDD electrode surface can be treated electrochemically by applying very negative and positive potentials (cathodic and anodic pretreatment) to obtain predominantly hydrogen and oxygen terminated surface (hydrophobic and hydrophilic nature), respectively, which may change overall chemical properties of this working electrode [13]. Recently, interesting reviews on practical guide to usage of BDDE in electrochemical research [27] as well as possibilities of chemical modification of this material for biosensors and biosensing [28] have also been published.…”

Baicalein – main active flavonoid from Scutellaria baicalensis – voltammetric sensing in human samples using boron doped diamond electrode

“…4. The low detection limit was obtained from these measurements (LOD = 0.26 μM, calculated as 3 × SD intercept /slope [28]). Relative standard deviation of the 8 measurements of the baicalein at the fixed concentration of 10 micromoles was calculated to be 3.7%.…”

Heavily Boron Doped Diamond Electrodes for Ultra Sensitive Determination of Ciprofloxacin in Human Urine

“…Boron doped diamond (BDD) electrodes are very attractive for electrochemical studies due to their outstanding properties such as the widest usable potential range from all electrode materials (up to 3 V), excellent surface passivation behavior related to the sp 3 character of carbon in diamond, stability in both alkaline and acidic media, minimal noise and low background current , . The advantages of BDD are the reason why BDD electrodes are nowadays the choice for the analysis of biologically active compounds , .…”
