A novel simple and selective electrochemical procedure is utilized for the determination of Dinoprostone (DIN) in drug substance and pharmaceutical preparation with good recovery and without interference with other excipient. Herein, the electrochemical sensing platform based upon preparing gold nanoparticle sensor on silica modified carbon paste electrode. The surface morphology of the modified electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscope. Different experimental conditions, including electrode composition, effect of pH and scan rate were estimated carefully by cyclic voltammetry to obtain the highest electrochemical response. By using square wave voltammetry a good linear response was obtained in the range of, 2 x 10-5-4 x10-4 mol L-1, and 2 x 10-7-1.6 x 10-4 mol L-1, with low detection limit of 5 x 10-6 mol L-1, and 4.9 x 10-8 mol L-1 by CPE and GNP/SMCPE respectively. The obtained results are in good agreement with those obtained by official method. No electrochemical method was reported before for determination of DIN. The developed method was simple, rapid, economic and challenging to green analytical chemistry.

Quality assurance is a major issue in the food industry. The authenticity of food ingredients and their traceability are required by consumers and authorities. Plant species such as barley (<i>Hordeum vulgare</i>), rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i>), sunflower (<i>Helianthus annus</i>), wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i>) and maize (<i>Zea mays</i>) are very common objects of interest of genetic modification (GMO); therefore the development of specific assays for their specific detection and quantification of GMO are needed. Furthermore, the production and trade of genetically modified lines from an increasing number of plant species brings about the need for control within research, environmental risk assessment, labeling-legal, and consumers’ information purposes. Electrochemical sensors and biosensors based on modification of working electrode could be suitable tools for these purposes. Here, we report using of an avidin-modified carbon paste electrode for rapid and sensitive determination of avidin in plant extract solution and in a transgenic maize extract. The process could be used to determine avidin concentrations up to 3pM in solution and 170nM in a maize seed extract. Moreover, we applied the method to analyze different maize flours.

A novel electrochemically activated ZrO2 nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) (ZrO2-CPE(ox)) was prepared and applied for selective and sensitive determination of hyperin. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra and electrochemical experiment were used to characterize the ZrO2 nanoparticles and investigate the electrochemical performance of the ZrO2-CPE(ox). Compared with bare CPE and electrochemically activated CPE (CPE(ox)), the ZrO2-CPE(ox) got more reactive sites by electrochemical treatment and exhibited larger effective surface area and more excellent electrochemical catalytic activity toward the redox of hyperin. Under the optimum conditions, the oxidation peak currents showed a linear relationship with the concentrations of hyperin in the range of [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol[Formula: see text]L[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol[Formula: see text]L[Formula: see text], and a low detection limit of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol[Formula: see text]L[Formula: see text] was achieved for hyperin. Moreover, the proposed method exhibited an excellent selectivity, stability, reproducibility and repeatability, which make it very suitable for a potential choice for determining the concentrations of hyperin in drug matrices.
