Electrochemical Behavior of Some Cinchona Alkaloids Using Screen-Printed Electrodes

An effective deposition of a cinchonine layer on a platinum metal surface can be easily achieved through the cathodic reduction of a cinchonine hydrochloride methanolic solution at a controlled potential of −220 mV vs. the silver standard electrode (SSE). A coated screen-printed platinum electrode h...

description An effective deposition of a cinchonine layer on a platinum metal surface can be easily achieved through the cathodic reduction of a cinchonine hydrochloride methanolic solution at a controlled potential of −220 mV vs. the silver standard electrode (SSE). A coated screen-printed platinum electrode has proven to be suitable for cinchonine determination in water, urine, and serum at µg L<sup>−1</sup> concentration levels using differential pulse voltammetry in a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0). The limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) were 0.6 µg L<sup>−1</sup> and 1.8 µg L<sup>−1</sup>, respectively.
