    Abstract:
    Electrochemical behaviors, electrochemical kinetics and electrochemical determination of sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) at both glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes-Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNTs-Nafion/GCE) were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronocoulometry (CC), chronoamperometry (CA), linear scan voltammetry (LSV) and amperometric i-t curve. The experimental results showed that the electrochemical oxidation of SMZ was sluggish on GCE, but the oxidation peak current of SMZ increased significantly at MWCNTs-Nafion/GCE in comparison with that at the bare GCE, which indicated that MWCNTs-Nafion/GCE could catalyze the electrochemical oxidation of SMZ very well. The plot of oxidation peak currents versus the square roots of the scanning rates for the redox in the potential range of 10-1,000 mV x s(-1) showed a straight line, as expected for a diffusion-limited electrochemical process for SMZ electrochemical oxidation. At the bare GCE and MWCNTs-Nafion/GCE the oxidation peak current was linearly proportional to the concentration of SMZ over the concentration range 5.0 x 10(-5)-2.5 x 10(-3) mol x L(-1) and 1.0 x 10(-5)-6.0 x 10(-3) mol x L(-1). The detection limits were 1.0 x 10(-5) and 5.0 x 10(-7) mol x L(-1). The relative standard deviation was between 0.85% -1.98% and the recovery was in the range of 98%-101.2%. This MWCNTs-Nafion/GCE could be applied in SMZ electrochemical determination with satisfied results. The proposed method can be applied to the determination of SMZ in tablet samples with satisfied results.
