title: Electrochemical preparation of sodium dodecylsulfate doped over-oxidized polypyrrole/multi-walled carbon nanotube composite on glassy carbon electrode and its application on sensitive and selective determination of anticancer drug: pemetrexed.
abstract: Electrochemical oxidation of pemetrexed (PMX) was studied on bare, carboxylic acid functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes and over-oxidized polypyrrole modified (oo-PPy/MWCNTs-COOH/GCE) glassy carbon electrodes by cyclic and adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetric techniques. The oo-PPy/MWCNTs-COOH/GCE is very sensitive to the oxidation of PMX. The results proved that the over-oxidation of the PPy film gave a negative charge density on porous layer that improved the adsorption for PMX. The effects of pH, concentrations of MWCNTs and monomer, the number of cycles for the electropolymerization and the scan rate for sensor preparation were optimized. The MWCNTs-COOH and oo-PPy based sensor showed an excellent recognition capacity toward PMX. The linear responses have been obtained in the range from 8.00 × 10(-7)M to 1.00 × 10(-4)M with 2.04 × 10(-7)M detection limit for the bare GCE and from 1.00 × 10(-8)M to 1.00 × 10(-7)M with 3.28 × 10(-9)M detection limit for the modified GCE. The oxidation of PMX was controlled by the adsorption process on both types of electrode surfaces. The proposed methods were compared with the literature on UV spectrophotometric assay, which was carried out at an absorption maximum of 225 nm. The proposed method and the designed sensors have been successfully applied for the determination of PMX in pharmaceuticals.
