Abstract

The expectorant drug guaifenesin (GFN) electroanalytical analysis was performed on boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE) by cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) methods. The results of CV studies indicate that the reaction mechanism of GFN in the oxidation direction on the BDDE is irreversible and diffusion controlled. The linearity ranges are 0.400 ˗ 100 µM and 0.800 ˗ 100 µM for DPV and SWV methods, respectively. Limit of detection (LOD) values are obtained as 1.47 nM for DPV and 2.92 nM for SWV. Quantitative analysis of GFN from the pharmaceuticals was performed with fully validated DPV and SWV methods without any pre-separation. The sensitive methods with good recovery, high precision and accuracy have been developed for the electroanalytical analysis of GFN.
