Determination of glucose concentration in urine and blood that anyone can use at any time is Benedict reagent based chemical sensor. This optical sensor was developed by immobilizing Benedict reagent into nata cellulose as supporting material via entrapment. The nata cellulose/Benedict membrane for glucose determination has optimum condition at maximum wavelenght   of 541.57 nm, Benedict concentration of 0.4470 M, and ratio of nata cellulse mass to Benedict volume was 1:3. Characterization of optical sensor for glucose was in working range of 0-5000 ppm, limit of detection was 911,11 ppm, sensitivity was 0.0009 and reproducibility was 0.2295%.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need of eco-friendly and locally or distributed manufacturing of diagnostic and safety products. Here, we characterized five handmade papers for their potential application to make paper analytical device (PADs). The handmade papers were made from locally available plant fiber using eco-friendly method. Thickness, grammage, and apparent density of the paper samples ranged from 198 μm to 314 μm, 49 g/m2 to 117.8 g/m2, and 0.23 to 0.39 g/cm3, respectively. Moisture content, water filtration and wicking speed ranged from 5.2% to 7.1%, 35.7 to 156.7, and 0.062 to 0.124 mms-1, respectively. Further, water contact angle and porosity ranged from 76˚ to 112˚ and 79% to 83%, respectively. The best paper sample one was chosen to fabricate PADs which were used for the determination of metformin. The metformin assay on PADs followed linear range from 0.0625 to 0.5 mg/mL. The assay had limit of detection and limit of quantitation of 0.05 mg/mL and 0.18 mg/mL respectively. The new method was used to test metformin samples (n=20) collected from local pharmacies. The average amount of metformin concentration in samples was 465.6 ± 15.1mg/tablet. Three samples did not meet the regulatory standards. When compared with spectrophotometric method, PADs assay correctly predicted 18 out of 20 samples. The PADs assay on handmade paper may provide a low-cost and easy-to-use system to screening the quality of drugs and other point-of-need applications.

In order to a better characterization of a graphite-polyurethane composite intended to be used as a voltammetric sensor, the performance in a square wave voltammetric procedure was investigated. Using hydroquinone (HQ) as a probe, the electrode showed to be useful in square wave voltammetry with limit of detection of 0.28 µmol L-1, with recoveries between 99.1 and 101.5%. The results of the proposed method agreed with HPLC ones within 95% confidence level.

A novel optical sensor was established to determine palladium(II) based on the immobilization of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) on a triacetylcellulose membrane. Palladium ions react with the immobilized PAN and cause a decrease in the absorbance of the membrane at 469 nm. The response time of the optode was 8-10 min depending on the concentration of Pd(II) ions. This sensing phase had a dynamic linear range of 0.10-12.0 ?g ml-1 palladium ions with a limit of detection of 65 ng ml-1. The sensor can readily be regenerated using an ethylenediamine solution. The sensor could be fully regenerated, and the color change was fully reversible. The method was successfully applied for the determination of Pd(II) in synthetic aqueous solutions and in a hydrogenation catalyst sample.

Biosensors for the determination of glucose concentration have a great significance in clinical diagnosis, and in the food and pharmaceutics industries. In this research, short-chain polyaniline (PANI) and polypyrrole (Ppy)-based nanocomposites with glucose oxidase (GOx) and 6 nm diameter AuNPs (AuNPs(6 nm)) were deposited on the graphite rod (GR) electrode followed by the immobilization of GOx. Optimal conditions for the modification of GR electrodes by conducting polymer-based nanocomposites and GOx were elaborated. The electrodes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and constant potential amperometry in the presence of the redox mediator phenazine methosulfate (PMS). The improved enzymatic biosensors based on GR/PANI-AuNPs(6 nm)-GOx/GOx and GR/Ppy-AuNPs(6 nm)-GOx/GOx electrodes were characterized by high sensitivity (65.4 and 55.4 μA mM−1 cm−2), low limit of detection (0.070 and 0.071 mmol L−1), wide linear range (up to 16.5 mmol L−1), good repeatability (RSD 4.67 and 5.89%), and appropriate stability (half-life period (τ1/2) was 22 and 17 days, respectively). The excellent anti-interference ability to ascorbic and uric acids and successful practical application for glucose determination in serum samples was presented for GR/PANI-AuNPs(6 nm)-GOx/GOx electrode.

This paper presents an accurate and fast electrochemical method for atorvastatin determination in pharmaceutical products. Two screen-printed sensors, one—carbon based (SPCE) and one based on carbon nanotubes and gold nanoparticles (AuNP-CNT/SPCE) were used during the electrochemical analyses. At all experimental stages, cyclic voltammetry was employed, both for the characterization of the sensors and their electrochemical behavior, and for quantitative determinations. AuNP-CNT/SPCE has showed an extended active area, higher intensity peaks, better reversibility and lower background current than the unmodified sensor. For atorvastatin quantification, a calibration curve has been developed within the 1.2–606.25 µM concentration range. A linearity relation between the current of the anodic peak and concentration has been obtained in the range 1.2–53.33 µMfor both sensors. With the AuNP-CNT/SPCE sensor, low values of limit of detection, LOD (1.92 × 10−7 M) and limit of quantification, LOQ (6.39 × 10−7 M) have been obtained, which demonstrates the feasibility of the method of determining atorvastatin from real samples. Atorvastatin amount has been successfully determined from pharmaceutical products using AuNP-CNT/SPCE. The results were similar to the manufacturer’s specifications regarding the dosage per tablet and to the concentrations obtained by applying the FTIR spectrometric method.

Abstract This paper presents a new and fast method for determination of vitamin B1 (thiamine) using functionalized CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) as a sensor. In this study the core-shell CdSe/ZnS QDs with thioglycolic acid capping agents were synthesized by wet chemical method in aqueous solution. Electronic absorption was applied for size determination of the QDs, the average diameters of the synthesized quantum dots were calculated using wavelength of the first excitonic absorption peak. The methods of FESEM and FTIR were also used for characterization of the prepared samples. The results indicated that vitamin B1 could effectively quench the QDs emission and the fluorescence intensity decreased linearly with the concentration of vitamin B1 ranging from 10-7 to 10-4 molL−1 with limit of detection of 2×10-8 mol L−1. Determination of vitamin B1in pills from two pharmaceutical companies were used as real samples using this method .
