Simultaneous Determination of Paracetamol and Ibuprofen in Pharmaceutical Samples by Differential Pulse Voltammetry Using a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Abstract

O presente trabalho apresenta uma metodologia simples, rápida e de baixo custo para determinação simultânea de paracetamol (PC) e ibuprofeno (IB) em formulações farmacêuticas por voltametria de pulso diferencial usando eletrodo de diamante dopado com boro (BDD).Os analitos apresentaram picos de oxidação definidos em 0,85 V para o PC e 1,72 V para o IB (vs.Ag/AgCl) sobre o eletrodo de trabalho de BDD em meio de uma solução de H 2 SO 4 0,1 mol L -1 com 10% (v/v) de etanol.As curvas de calibração mostraram uma resposta linear para determinação simultânea dos analitos entre 20 a 400 μmol L -1 (r 2 = 0,999) e os limites de detecção obtidos pelas regressões foram de 7,1 μmol L -1 e 3,8 μmol L -1 para PC e IB, respectivamente.Os estudos de adição e recuperação nas amostras ficaram próximos de 100% e os resultados foram validados por métodos cromatográficos.This work presents a simple, fast and low-cost methodology for the simultaneous determination of paracetamol (PC) and ibuprofen (IB) in pharmaceutical formulations by differential pulse voltammetry using a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode.A well-defined oxidation peak was observed using the BDD electrode for each analyte (0.85 V for PC and 1.72 V for IB (vs.Ag/AgCl)) in 0.1 mol L -1 H 2 SO 4 solution containing 10% (v/v) of ethanol.Calibration curves for the simultaneous determination of PC and IB showed a linear response for both drugs in a concentration range of 20 to 400 μmol L -1 (r 2 = 0.999), with a detection limit of 7.1 μmol L -1 for PC and 3.8 μmol L -1 for IB.The addition-recovery studies in samples were about 100% and the results were validated by chromatographic methods.
