Dibenzo-18-crown-6-based carbon paste sensors for the nanomolar potentiometric determination of daclatasvir dihydrochloride: An anti-HCV drug and a potential candidate for treatment of SARS-CoV-2.

Daclatasvir dihydrochloride (DAC) is an anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) drug that has recently proven to be a promising candidate for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2. Still, there is a lack of sensitive potentiometric methods for its determination. In this work, carbon paste sensors based on dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) were fabricated and optimized for the sensitive and selective potentiometric determination of DAC in Daclavirocyrl® tablets, serum, and urine samples.

Potentiometric batch and flow injection analysis of betaine hydrochloride.

Novel PVC membrane electrodes for the determination of betaine ion based on the formation of betaine-tetraphenylborate (Be-TPB) and betaine-phosphotungstate (Be-PT) ion-exchangers as electroactive materials are described. The sensors show a fast, stable, near Nernstian response for 6.92 x 10(-6) to 7.

Ion-selective electrodes for potentiometric determination of ranitidine hydrochloride, applying batch and flow injection analysis techniques.

New ranitidine hydrochloride (RaCl)-selective electrodes of the conventional polymer membrane type are described. They are based on incorporation of ranitidine-tetraphenylborate (Ra-TPB) ion-pair or ranitidine-phosphotungstate (RaPT) ion-associate in a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane plasticized with dioctylphthalate (DOP) or dibutylphthalate (DBP). The electrodes are fully characterized in terms of the membrane composition, solution temperature, and pH.

PVC membrane ion-selective electrodes for the determination of Hyoscyamine in pure solution and in pharmaceutical preparations under batch and flow modes.

New PVC membrane electrodes selective for the determination of hyoscyamine ion (Hy(+)) based on hyoscyamine tetraphenylborate (Hy-TPB) or hyoscyamine phosphotungstate (Hy-PT) ion-exchangers as electroactive materials are described. The electrodes show a linear response for Hy(+) over the concentration range of 1.00 x 10(-5) to 1.
