Simultaneous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug electrodetection on nitrogen doped carbon nanodots and nanosized cobalt phthallocyanine conjugate modified glassy carbon electrode

Nitrogen doped carbon nanodots (NDCNDs) and nanosized cobalt tetra aminophenoxy phthalocyanines (CoTAPhPcNPs) modified glassy carbon electrodes have been successfully used in the simultaneous detection of aspirin (ASA), ibuprofen (IBU) and indomethacin (INDO). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), tra...

Description
Summary:Nitrogen doped carbon nanodots (NDCNDs) and nanosized cobalt tetra aminophenoxy phthalocyanines (CoTAPhPcNPs) modified glassy carbon electrodes have been successfully used in the simultaneous detection of aspirin (ASA), ibuprofen (IBU) and indomethacin (INDO). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to probe the nature of the synthesized nanomaterials. Sequential deposition of the nanomaterials on the glassy carbon electrode yielded CoTAPhPcNPs-NDCNDs-GCE with remarkable electrocatalytic performance. Electro-oxidation of the drugs at the electrode surface was first order. This work demonstrates the synergic effect of the two nanomaterials towards simultaneous electrocatalytic detection of the drugs. Superior detection limits of ASA, IBU and INDO being 9.66 10 9 M, 4.19 10 9 M and 7.2 10 9 M, respectively, were obtained using differential pulse voltammetry. The developed sensor could detect two of the three (ibuprofen and indomethacin) simultaneously at significantly different potentials and exhibited remarkable reproducibility after a regeneration step.
