Voltammetric Determination of Warfarin at a Screen-Printed Carbon Electrode
Žužičová, Victória ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
In this Bachelor Thesis, the electrochemical behaviour of the drug warfarin sodium was studied at a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) using DC voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The dependence of the voltammetric behaviour of the substance on the pH of the medium was studied in Britton-Robinson buffer (BR buffer) in the pH range of 2.0−12.0. A pH of 7.0 was chosen as the optimum pH for both voltammetric techniques. A repeatability of 3.8% for DCV and 4.3% for DPV was determined for the selected pH. Calibration dependence was monitored under the selected optimal conditions in the concentration range 2∙10−6 to 1∙10−4 mol∙dm−3 . The limit of detection (LOD) was determined to be 1.05∙10−6 mol∙dm−3 for DCV and 2.59∙10−7 mol∙dm−3 for DPV. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 3.50∙10−6 mol∙dm−3 for DCV and 8.62∙10−7 mol∙dm−3 for DPV. These newly developed methods were used for the determination of the active ingredient in the pharmaceutical formulation Warfarin Orion 5 mg. The values measured by voltammetric methods were compared with those obtained by spectrophotometric measurements.
