AbstractThe paper describes a method of voltammetric determination of antioxidants in lubricating oils developed with the use of Linear Sweep Voltammetry (LSV) and Fast Scan Differential Pulse Voltammetry (FSDPV). Experimental conditions have been found for simultaneous determination of phenol-based antioxidants and amino-antioxidants: the phenols can be electrochemically oxidized using the polarisation of gold disc electrode (AuDE) in the potential range of 0–1400 mV in 0.2 M H2SO4 in the presence of ethanol and acetonitrile at the ratio of 3:1. Secondary aromatic amines can be determined directly in this supporting electrolyte; the presence of phenolic antioxidants does not interfere with this analysis. On the other hand, secondary aromatic amines interfere with the determination of phenolic substances; therefore, the amines present have to be eliminated in a suitable way. A procedure for masking the aromatic amines using their reaction with nitrous acid has been suggested and optimised. The nitrosamines thus formed can be used for sensitive and selective determination of amino-antioxidants by means of cathodic reduction on the hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) using Fast Scan Differential Pulse Voltammetry. The method was applied in analysis of real samples of lubricating oils.

The electrochemical oxidation behaviour of Drimarene Blue X-BLN (DB) has been investigated in phosphate buffers (pH 2.54–10.18) by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The oxidation of DB dye generated well-defined pH-dependent two pairs of quasi-reversible anodic-cathodic peak couples. DB exhibited the second redox couple over the entire pH range, while the first redox couple disappeared for pH ≥ 6.70. The redox processes were adsorption-controlled. An electroanalytical method was developed for the determination of DB in phosphate buffer solution (pH 2.85) as supporting electrolyte using DPV. The anodic current heights varied linearly with DB concentrations in the ranges 2 × 10–6–3 × 10–5 and 6 × 10–6–3 × 10–5 mol l–1 with limits of detection (LOD) of 8.7 × 10–7 and 5.7 × 10–7 mol l–1 and limits of quantification (LOQ) of 2.9 × 10–6 and 1.9 × 10–6 mol l–1 for the first and second anodic peaks, respectively. Validation parameters, such as accuracy, precision and recovery were evaluated. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of DB in tap water and the analytical results compared well with those obtained by the spectrophotometric method.

Background: 8-Hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been regarded as a typical stable biomarker of DNA oxidative damage, and its level is one of the criteria for early diagnosis of various diseases. Considering the significance of 8-OhdG, various analytical techniques have been used for assaying 8-OHdG but all of them suffer from basic limitations like highly expensive instrumentation, large amount of sample requirement, complicated sample pre-treatment, tedious and time-consuming procedures etc. However, electroanalytical sensors provide a faster, easy and sensitive means of analyzing. Methods: The chitosan (CS) film provided the high electrode activity and stability which is required for detecting 8-OHdG though direct electrochemical oxidation. Zirconia was employed because it has some unique properties, such as high redox activity and selectivity etc. High-performance composite was easily detected by differential pulse voltammetry at a working voltage of 0. 51 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). A rapid and sensitive electrochemical sensor based on CS and metal oxide nanocrystalline for the determination of 8-OHdG was established. Results: Under optimized experimental conditions, the peak currents of differential pulse voltammetry increased as the concentrations of 8-OHdG increased from 10 to 200 ng·mL-1. The detection limit was 3.67 ng·mL-1 which was calculated by the S/N ratio of 3. The recoveries of the real spiked samples are in the range between 93.2 to 105.3%. Conclusion: The electrochemical sensor for direct 8-OHdG determination using a new CS/zirconia composite for GCE modification was developed and showed excellent reproducibility, stability and sensitivity for the specific determination of 8-OHdG in real urine specimen.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 4-nitrobiphenyl by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 . 10-5 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. A further increase in sensitivity was attained by adsorptive accumulation of this substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting determination in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-8 mol l-1 with one minute accumulation of the substance in unstirred solution or (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with three-minute accumulation in stirred solution. Linear scan voltammetry can be used to determine 4-nitrobiphenyl in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with five-minute accumulation in stirred solution, with the advantage of a smoother baseline and smaller interference from substances that yield only tensametric peaks.
