Abstract

Electrochemical determination of amlodipine besylate (ADB) using single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes modified edge plane pyrolytic graphite electrodes (SWNT/EPPGE and MWNT/EPPGE) is described by using cyclic and square wave voltammetries at physiological pH 7.2. An increased peak current with a shift of peak potential to less positive value was observed using carbon nanotubes modified EPPGE as compared to bare electrode. The effect of pH, scan rate and analyte concentration has been examined. Under the optimum conditions the peak current was linear to the concentration of amlodipine in the range 5.0 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-6) mol L-1 for SWNT/ EPPGE and the detection limit was found to be 1.0 x 10(-9) mol L-1 whereas, for MWNT/EPPGE the detection limit was found to be 5.0 x 10(-9) mol L-1. The method was successfully used to determine the content of amlodipine in the pharmaceutical preparations and human urine samples of angina patients undergoing treatment with amlodipine. A comparison of electrocatalytic activities of SWNT and MWNT modified electrodes indicated that SWNT modified EPPGE is similar to 1.8 times more sensitive in comparison to MWNT/EPPGE. Biological relevance of the developed method has been described by the determination of amlodipine in human body fluids. Amlodipine can be determined without any interference from common urine metabolites such as uric acid, ascorbic acid and xanthine. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) as electrochemical probe for detection of guanine quadruplexes

Daniel Dobrovodsky, Ales Danhel, Daniel Renciuk, Jean-Louis Mergny, Miroslav Fojta

Summary: In this study, N-methyl mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) was utilized as a voltammetric probe for the electrochemical detection of G4s. The detection of NMM was achieved by cyclic voltammetry on a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) with a limit of detection (LOD) of 40 nM. The reduction signal of NMM was found to be significantly higher when G4 oligodeoxynucleotides (G4 ODNs) were present compared to single- or double-stranded ODNs or unfolded ODNs capable of forming G4s. Gradual transition from unstructured single strand to G4, induced by increasing concentrations of the G4 stabilizing K+ ions, was detected for the first time using electrochemical methods. Circular dichroism spectroscopy provided support for the obtained results. This work expands on the utilization of electrochemical probes for DNA secondary structure recognition and offers a proof of principle for the development of novel electroanalytical methods for nucleic acid structure studies.
