Abstract An accurate, rapid, simple, and novel technique was developed to determine simvastatin (SMV). In this research, a screen-printed electrode (SPE) was deposited with graphene oxide (GO) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), respectively. For the first time, the handmade modified SPE measured the SMV by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) with high sensitivity and selectivity. The results of cyclic voltammetry indicated the oxidation irreversible process of SMV. Various parameters (pH, concentration, scan rate, support electrolyte) were performed to optimize the conditions for the determination of SMV. Under the optimum experiment condition of 0.1 M KNO3 as support electrolyte and pH 7.0, the linear range was achieved for SMV concentration from 1.8 to 36.6 µM with a limit of detection (LOD), and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.06 and 1.8 µM, respectively. The proposed method was successfully utilized to determine SMV in tablets and urine samples with a satisfactory recovery in the range of 96.2 to 103.3%.

Abstract We evaluated a new sodium dodecyl sulfate-agarose gel electrophoresis (SDS-AGE) for urinary protein analysis in patients with multiple myeloma (MM; n = 47; ages, 62 ± 2 years, mean ± SE). Abnormal proteinuria (mean = 1872 ± 360 mg/24 h) was present in 95% of the samples; 75% of the patients had some sign of renal dysfunction (glomerular and/or tubular) according to their SDS-AGE pattern. A band suggesting Bence Jones proteinuria (BJP) was detected in 40 vs 33 specimens by routine AGE. Immunofixation identified BJP in 38 patients; the calculated sensitivity of SDS-AGE for BJP was 97%. Excellent correlation (P <0.0001) was obtained with routine AGE (r = 0.994) and immunonephelometry (r = 0.963) for light chain quantification. SDS-AGE allows easy evaluation of renal dysfunction and shows high sensitivity for BJP detection. In a specialized laboratory, it is useful for following the progress of MM patients through the semiquantification of BJP.
