Abstract
Section titled “Abstract”Abstract The present work describes the individual, selective and simultaneous quantification of acetaminophen (ACP) and tramadol hydrochloride (TRA) using a modification‐free boron‐doped diamond (BDD) electrode. Cyclic voltammetric measurements revealed that the profile of the binary mixtures of ACP and TRA were manifested by two irreversible oxidation peaks at about +1.04 V (for ACP) and +1.61 V (for TRA) in Britton‐Robinson (BR) buffer pH 3.0. TRA oxidation peak was significantly improved in the presence of anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), while ACP signal did not change. By employing square‐wave stripping mode in BR buffer pH 3.0 containing 8×10 −4 mol L −1 SDS after 30 s accumulation under open‐circuit voltage, the BDD electrode could be used for quantification of ACP and TRA simultaneously in the ranges 1.0-70 μg mL −1 (6.6×10 −6 -4.6×10 −4 mol L −1 ) and 1.0-70 μg mL −1 (3.3×10 −6 -2.3×10 −4 mol L −1 ), with detection limits of 0.11 μg mL −1 (7.3×10 −7 mol L −1 ) and 0.13 μg mL −1 (4.3×10 −7 mol L −1 ), respectively. The practical applicability of the proposed approach was tested for the individual and simultaneous quantification of ACP and/or TRA in the pharmaceutical dosage forms.
