The world health organization (WHO) declared that the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 constituted a public health emergency of international concern. Thus, accredited fevipiravir (FVP) was one of the potential drugs for the treatment of Covid-19 infected patients. Hence it is of interest to study the electrochemical behavior of FVP. We report the performance of a low-cost composite of graphene and indium oxide (G/In2O3) nanomaterial drop casted on pencil graphite electrode employed to detect FVP. The G/In2O3 was prepared by a simple precipitation method. The electrochemical study of FVP was carried out by using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and chronoamperometry. The G/In2O3 modified electrode detects FVP well in Britton Robinson (BR) buffer pH of 7.2. The oxidation peak was observed at the potential range of 1.0 to 1.23 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The linear range detection limit was estimated to be 10 µl to 70 µl. The calculated sensitivity is 17.49 µA µM-1 cm-2 and the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 3.0nM and 10.0nM. The fabricated cost-effective G/In2O3 electroactive biosensor was effectively employed to regulate FAV in urine and tablet samples with adequate repossession. The proposed sensor offers good selectivity, sensitivity and long-term stability.
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.
