Abstract

The extraordinary features of cerium oxide (CeO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures have encouraged substantial attention to those nanocomposites as probable electroactive complexes for sensing and biosensing purposes. In this study, an advanced novel factionalized CeO2/ZnO nanocomposite-aluminum wire membrane sensor was designed to assess pethidine hydrochloride (PTD) in commercial injection samples. Pethidine-reineckate (PTD-RK) was formed by mixing pethidine hydrochloride and ammonium reineckate (ARK) in the presence of polymeric matrix (polyvinyl chloride) and o-nitrophenyl octyl ether as a fluidizing agent. The functionalized nanocomposite sensor displayed a fast dynamic response and wide linearity for the detection of PTD. It also revealed excellent selectivity and sensitivity, high accuracy, and precision for the determination and quantification of PTD when compared with the unmodified sensor PTD-RK. The guidelines of analytical methodology requirements were obeyed to improve the suitability and validity of the suggested potentiometric system according to several criteria. The developed potentiometric system was suitable for the determination of PTD in bulk powder and commercial products.
