摘要
A simple, facile, selective and cost effective electrochemical method is proposed for the determination of telmisartan (TMS); a drug used for hypertension. A sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) modified edge plane pyrolytic graphite (EPPG) is prepared by simple immersion of EPPG in SDS solution at concentration greater than critical micelle concentration (CMC). The modified sensor exhibited superior sensing properties towards the oxidation of TMS. The modified surface was characterized by using the Energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The quantitative investigations of the TMS were performed by applying the square wave voltammetry. The micelles of SDS form a pseudo complex with cation radical of TMS and catalyse the oxidation. The proposed sensor shows the linear calibration plot in the concentration range of 5-100M with sensitivity 0.2983A/M and the limit of the detection of the sensor was found to be 0.082M. The specificity of the developed sensor was also evaluated in the presence of commonly present interfering substances in biological samples. The amount of TMS excreted in urine of the patients undergoing treatment has also been determined. The proposed method can be effectively applied for the investigation of TMS in pharmaceutical formulations and biological samples.
