Electrochemical oxidation of Paracetamol (PAR), Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and Caffeine (CAF) was investigated employing square wave stripping voltammetry (SWSV) using screen–printed carbon electrodes (SPCE). Determinations were performed in 0.1 mol L−1 BR buffer (pH 2.0) without accumulation step. SWV were obtained by scanning the potential from 0.00 to 1.40 V employing a scan increment of 4 mV, pulse amplitude 25 mV and frequency of 25 Hz. PAR, ASA and CAF presents oxidation signals at 0.45, 1.03 and 1.32 V. The detection limits were 1.2, 1.7 and 1.7 mg L−1, respectively. The method was applied in the PAR‐ASA‐CAF determination on pharmaceutical formulations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
