A CaCuSi4O10/glassy carbon electrode (GCE) sensor was developed for the rapid detection and quantification of norfloxacin. The sensor showed improved electrochemical performance compared to the GCE. The electrochemical oxidation of norfloxacin was controlled by diffusion and adsorption processes, and the sensor exhibited selectivity towards norfloxacin.
This study reports on a calcium copper tetrasilicate (CaCuSi4O10)/glassy carbon electrode (GCE) electrochemical sensor developed for rapid sensing and quantification of an antibacterial drug, norfloxacin, using both cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The sensor was fabricated by modifying a glassy carbon electrode with the CaCuSi4O10. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was performed and the Nyquist plot showed that the CaCuSi4O10/GCE had a lower charge transfer resistance of 22.1 omega cm(2) compared to the GCE with a charge transfer resistance of 43.5 omega cm(2). Differential pulse voltammetry showed that the optimum pH for the electrochemical detection of norfloxacin in potassium phosphate buffer solution (PBS) electrolyte was pH 4.5 and an irreversible oxidative peak was found at 1.067 V. Two linear ranges were established at 0.01 to 0.55 mu M and 0.55 mu M to 82.1 mu M, and the limit of detection was ca. 0.0046 mu M. We further demonstrated that the electrochemical oxidation was controlled by both diffusion and adsorption processes. The sensor was investigated in the presence of interferents and was found to be selective toward norfloxacin. The pharmaceutical drug analysis was done to establish method reliability and a significantly low standard deviation of 2.3% was achieved. The results suggest that the sensor can be applied in the detection of norfloxacin.
