“…16 Boron-doped diamond thin film (BDD) electrodes have many advantages for electroanalytical applications, due to their unique characteristics, which include a very low background current, 23,24 a wide electrochemical potential window in aqueous solutions, 25,26 a long-term stability of response, 27-30 a slight adsorption of polar organic molecules 28 and low sensitivity to dissolved oxygen. 31 Because of these attractive properties, BDD electrodes have been successfully used for the determination of various compounds, such as tiopronin, 30 acetaminophen, 32 D-penicillamine, 33 captopril, 34 lincomycin, 35 sulfonamides, 36 malachite green and leucomalachite green. 37 No reports have described the use of BDD electrodes for the determination of chloramphenicol.…”
