Abstract

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%).
