Amperometric biosensor based on D-aminoacid oxidase for the R-perindopril assay.
A new amperometric biosensor based on D-aminoacid oxidase is described for the assay of R-perindopril. R-perindopril can be determined in the 400-20 nmol/L concentration range; the detection limit is 10 nmol/L. The selectivity was checked with S-perindopril, D- and L-proline, and polyvinylpyrrolidone. The main interfering species was D-proline. An automated system for the assay of R-perindopril based on the concept of flow injection with an amperometric biosensor (based on D-aminoacid oxidase) as detector is also described. The system is suitable for the on-line monitoring of R-perindopril at a sampling rate of 72 samples/h, in the linear range: 100 nmol/L -20 nmol/L with an RSD better than 0.09% (n = 10).
