Cephalosporin Antibiotics

Arrays of potentiometric sensors including developed solid-contact unmodified and modified sensors based on tetradecylammonium associates with complex compounds of silver (1) and some β-lactam antibiotics (cefazoline, cefuroxime, cefotaxime (n = 3 – 6)) are proposed; polyaniline and copper oxide being modifiers. The main electroanalytic properties of the sensors are determined (the range of the determined concentrations in antibiotic solutions 1 × 10–4 – 0.1 M, 46.3 < S < 48, Cmin = n × 10–5 М, response time 4 – 10 sec, potential drift 4 – 6 mV/day, service life — 2 months). It is shown that modification of the membrane surfaces brings the steepness of the electrode functions to Nernst-values for single-charged ions of the antibiotics under study; reduces the response time and the detection limits, the linearity intervals of the electrode functions being the same. The potentiometric selectivity coefficients of unmodified and modified sensors based on different electrode active components (EAC) to the studied cephalosporins in the presence of interfering antibiotics are close to unity; cross sensitivity parameters for the considered sensors (the average slope of the electrode function of the sensor Sav, the unselectivity factor F, and the reproducibility factor K) are 46.3 < S (mV/pC) < 48; 0.85 < F < 0.90; 144 < K < 170, respectively. Application of sensors in the multisensory analysis of model mixtures of cephalosporin antibiotics is shown. Method of artificial neural networks (ANN) is used for processing of analytical signals. The correctness of the determination is carried out using «spike tests» on the reference model mixtures (the relative error of the determination does not exceed 12 %).

Electroanalytical properties of unmodified and modified by polyaniline and by CuO nanoparticles solid-contact potentiometric sensors which are based on associates of tetradecylammonium with complex compounds of silver (I) with cephuroxime, cephotaxime and cephazoline Ag(β-lac)2TDA in solutions of corresponding antibiotics were studied. It was revealed that Ag(β-lac)2TDA –based sensors had no specificity to the basic ion but showed sensitivity to other cephalosporins. Taking into account the potentiometric selectivity coefficients and cross-sensitivity parameters of sensors based on different electrode-active components, their use for creating «electronic tongue» multi-sensor systems was shown. Arrays of low-selective potentiometric sensors were created for separate determination of cephazoline and cephotaxime in two-component model mixtures at concentration intervals of 2,5·10-4 – 0,01 М. The method of artificial neural networks was used for processing analytical signals (the relative error of determination not exceeding 13%).

Cefuroxime, cefuroxime axetil and cefalexin are broad-spectrum pluripotential cephalosporin antibiotics. Their determination in various objects suggests using expensive spectroscopic, chromatographic, electrochemical equipment and organic solvents. Potentiometric sensors can provide rapid detection of cephalosporin antibiotics in a small sample volume without a preliminary sample preparation. The study is aimed at the developing of modified solid-contact potentiometric sensors for determination of cefuroxime and cefalexin in aqueous, biological media, and pharmaceuticals. The electroanalytical characteristics of unmodified and modified polyaniline and copper oxide nanoparticle sensors are evaluated. Tetradecylammonium(TDA) with a silver (I) – cefuroxime complex are used as the active membrane components, whereas polyaniline and copper oxide nanoparticles are used as modifiers. The main electroanalytic and operational characteristics of the studied sensors in aqueous solutions of antibiotics and against the background of oral fluid (LRP) are determined. The results of comparative evaluation of the electroanalytical properties of unmodified and modified solid-contact sensors in aqueous media of some â-lactam antibiotics and against the background of oral fluid are presented. The sensors based on Ag (Cefur)2TDA are characterized by a short response time: for modified polyaniline (PAN) and copper oxide nanoparticles within 5 – 10 sec, for unmodified — 10 – 20 sec. The linear range of the electrode functions for unmodified and modified sensors is 1 × 10–4 – 1 × 10–1 M, the detection limit is 7.4 × 10–5 M for unmodified and 6.3 × 10–5 M for modified sensors, respectively. The potential drift is 6 – 12 and 4 – 6 mV/day, service life is 1.5 and 2 months for unmodified and modified sensors, respectively. The modifiers stabilize the electrode potential, perform the function of the electron transfer mediator thus enhancing the electroanalytical characteristics of the sensors. The effect of the redox agents on the sensor properties is revealed: 1 × 10–3 – 1 × 10–4 MK 2Cr2O7 and FeCl3 solutions reduce the linearity intervals of the electrode functions, KI and Mohr’s salt do not affect the characteristics of the sensors in cefuroxime and cephalexin solutions. The coefficients of potentiometric selectivity of cefuroxime-selective sensors (modified with CuO nanoparticles) with respect to cefazolin, cefotaxime, and cefalexin are close to unity; Kijpot with respect to inorganic anions being part of the oral fluid (, Cl Br,I,HCO3 ,H PO 24 ,HPO4 2) are n × 10–2 – n × 10–3. This indicates the possibility of using sensors for detecting individual cephalosporin antibiotics or their total content in the presence of 100 – 1000 fold excesses of inorganic ions in medicinal and biological environments, small sample volumes, which is important when studying the pharmacokinetics of antibiotics and in determination of the maximum therapeutic dose when adjusting the treatment process.

The 1st generation cefalexine-cephalosporine antibiotic is used in the treatment of various infectious diseases. Spectrophotometry, kinetic spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry are proposed to determination of cefalexine in medicine and biological environment. Planar screenprinted sensors allow analyzing the micro-volumes of samples, which is important for the analysis of biological objects without preliminary samplepreparation. Depending on the active material and modifiers, you can create planar sensors for the determination of different organic compounds. In this work we have studied the influence of the nature of electroactive compounds and modifiers on the electroanalytic properties of planar cefalexine-selective sensors. Associates of tetradecylammonium and dimethyldistearylammonium with complex compounds silver (1) – cefalexine (Ceas = 1–3%), polyaniline modifiers and cupric oxide nanoparticles have been used as active components, the ratio EAS: modifier is 1:1. The main electroanalytic and operational characteristics of cefalexine-selective sensors in aqueous solutions and on the background of oral fluid are determined. Advantage of tetradecylammonium in active components of cefalexine-selective sensors is shown. For cefalexine- sensors, the optimal is: linearity interval 1·10-2 – 1·10-4, response time 20–25 seconds, for unmodified: 10–15 sec, for modified in 1·10-2 M solutions of cefalexine, service life – 1 month. Modifiers approximate angular coefficients of electrode functions to theoretical values for single-charge ions, reduce response time and drift of potential, reduce the detection limit of cefalexine. Sensors are used for the determination of cephalexine in model aqueous solutions and oral fluid with added antibiotic additives, in expired cephalexine preparations.

AbstractA new all plastic sensor for Co2+ ions based on 2-amino-5 (hydroxynaphtyloazo-1′)-1,3,4 thiadiazole (ATIDAN) as ionophore was prepared. The electrode exhibits a low detection limit of 1.5 × 10−6 mol L−1 and almost theoretical Nernstian slope in the activity range 4.0 × 10−6–1 × 10−1 mol L−1 of cobalt ions. The response time of the sensor is less than 10 s and it can be used over a period of 6 months without any measurable divergence in potential. The proposed sensor shows a fairly good selectivity for Co(II) over other metal ions. The electrode was successfully applied for determination of Co2+ in real samples and as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of Co2+ ions with EDTA.

Herein, a facile route leading to good single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) dispersion or poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS) based single-piece nanocomposite membrane is proposed for trace determination of Cu2+ ions. The single-piece solid contact Cu2+-selective electrodes were prepared after drop casting the membrane mixture on the glassy-carbon substrates. The prepared potentiometric sensors revealed a Nernstian response slope of 27.8 ± 0.3 and 28.1 ± 0.4 mV/decade over the linearity range 1.0 × 10−3 to 2.0 × 10−9 and 1.0 × 10−3 to 1.0 × 10−9 M with detection limits of 5.4 × 10−10 and 5.0 × 10−10 M for sensors based on SWCNTs and PEDOT/PSS, respectively. Excellent long-term potential stability and high hydrophobicity of the nanocomposite membrane are recorded for the prepared sensors due to the inherent high capacitance of SWCNT used as a solid contact material. The sensors exhibited high selectivity for Cu2+ ions at pH 4.5 over other common ions. The sensors were applied for Cu2+ assessment in tap water and different tea samples. The proposed sensors were robust, reliable and considered as appealing sensors for copper (II) detection in different complex matrices.

Two novel all-solid-state potentiometric sensors for the determination of azide ion are prepared and described here for the first time. The sensors are based on the use of iron II-phthalocyanine (Fe-PC) neutral carrier complex and nitron-azide ion-pair complex (Nit-N3−) as active recognition selective receptors, tetradodecylammonium tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl) borate (ETH 500) as lipophilic cationic additives and poly(octylthiophene) (POT) as the solid contact material on carbon screen-printed devices made from a ceramic substrate. The solid-contact material (POT) is placed on a carbon substrate (2 mm diameter) by drop-casting, followed, after drying, by coating with a plasticized PVC membrane containing the recognition sensing complexes. Over the pH range 6-9, the sensors display fast (< 10 s), linear potentiometric response for 1.0 × 10−2–1.0 × 10−7 M azide with low detection limit of 1.0 × 10−7 and 7.7 × 10−8 M (i.e., 6.2–4.8 ng/ml) for Fe-PC/POT/and Nit-N3−/POT based sensors, respectively. The high potential stability and sensitivity of the proposed sensors are confirmed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and constant-current chronopotentiometry measurement techniques. Strong membrane adhesion and absence of delamination of the membrane, due to possible formation of a water film between the recognition membranes and the electron conductor are also verified. The proposed sensors are successfully applied for azide quantification in synthetic primer mixture samples. Advantages offered by these sensors are the robustness, ease of fabrication, simple operation, stable potential response, high selectivity, good sensitivity and low cost.

Selection Of

A new solid-contact potentiometric ion-selective electrode for the determination of SCN− (SCN-ISE) has been described. Synthesized phosphonium derivative of calix[4]arene was used as a charged ionophore. The research included selection of the ion-selective membrane composition, determination of the ISEs metrological parameters and SCN-ISE application for thiocyanate determination in human saliva. Preparation of the ISEs included selection of a plasticizer for the ion-selective membrane composition and type of the electrode material. The study was carried out using ISE with liquid internal electrolyte (LE-ISE) and solid-contact electrodes made of glassy carbon (GC-ISE) and gold rods (Au-ISE). The best parameters were found for GC sensors for which the ion-selective membrane contained chloroparaffin as a plasticizer (S = 59.9 mV/dec, LOD = 1.6 × 10−6 M). The study of potentiometric selectivity coefficients has shown that the thiocyanate-selective sensor could be applied in biomedical research for determination of SCN− concentration in human saliva. The accuracy of the SCN− determination was verified by testing 59 samples of volunteers’ saliva by potentiometric sensors and UV-Vis spectrophotometry as a reference technique. Moreover, SCN− concentrations in the smokers’ and non-smokers’ saliva were compared. In order to investigate the influence of various factors (sex, health status, taken medications) on the thiocyanate level in the saliva, more extensive studies on a group of 100 volunteers were carried out. Additionally, for a group of 18 volunteers, individual profiles of SCN− concentration in saliva measured on a daily basis for over a month were collected.
