Abstract
A voltammetric sensor was developed based on a glassy carbon electrode with aluminophosphate zeolite finely dispersed on its surface, modified with a polyelectrolyte complex of chitosan with succinyl chitosan and betulinic acid, for the selective detection and determination of naproxen enantiomers. The electrochemical and analytical characteristics of the sensor were studied, and the effective electrode surface area (A = 9.8 ± 0.5 mm2) and charge transfer resistance (Ret = 649.9 ± 0.4 Ω) were calculated. In determining naproxen enantiomers, calibration characteristics are linear in the range from 2.5 × 10–5 to 1 × 10–3 M with limits of detection of 1.1 × 10–7 and 1.5 × 10–7 M and limits of quantification of 3.6 × 10–7 and 4.9 × 10–7 M for R- and S-naproxen, respectively. The sensor is more sensitive to R-naproxen (∆Ep = 60 mV, ipR/ipS = 1.40). The proposed sensor was used to recognize and determine naproxen enantiomers in human urine and plasma samples. Statistical evaluation of the results by the standard addition method showed that there was no systematic error.
