Abstract
The authors describe a method for amperometric determination of chloramine-T that is based on the indirect detection of chloramine-T by detecting p-quinone imine (p-QI) that is generated by oxidation of p-aminophenylboronic acid by chloramine-T. p-QI can be detected with excellent selectivity and at low potential by using a glassy carbon electrode. Hence, the method displays attractive features such as high sensitivity, wide detection range and excellent selectivity. The electrode has two linear responses in the 50 nM to 100 μM concentration range and a 6 nM detection limit. Compared to other electrochemical methods, this assay has a detection limit that is better by three orders of magnitude. The relative standard deviation is 3.4% for the determination of 10 μM of the medical chloramine-T sample, and the recovery of a samples containing chloramine-T at a level of 10 μM is 115%.
