Stripping voltammetric determination of indapamide in serum at castor oil-based carbon paste electrodes.
The diuretic drug indapamide has been characterized voltammetrically at carbon paste electrodes by means of cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. An adsorptive stripping method at carbon paste electrode modified with castor oil for trace determination of indapamide was described. A study of the variation of the peak current with solution variables such as pH, ionic strength, concentration of indapamide, possible interference, and instrumental variables such as scan rate, pulse amplitude, preconcentration time, accumulation potential, paste composition has resulted in the optimization of the oxidation signal for analytical purposes. By anodic stripping differential pulse voltammetry, the calibration plot was linear in the range 5 x 10(-8) x 10(-7) M with a detection limit of 5 x 10(-9) M at carbon paste electrode modified with castor oil in pH 4.0. The preconcentration medium-exchange approach was utilized for selective determination of indapamide in spiked serum. A detection limit of 15 ng ml(-1) was obtained for dilute serum sample after 3 min accumulation and medium-exchange procedure.
