Enantioselective, potentiometric membrane electrodes (EPMEs) based on carbon paste impregnated with different maltodextrins {dextrose equivalent (DE) 4.0-7.0 (I), 13.0-17.0 (II) and 16.5-19.5 (III)} as chiral selectors for the assay of S-perindopril is described. The proposed electrodes could be reliably employed in the assay of S-perindopril raw material and from its pharmaceutical formulation, Coversyl((R)) tablets. The electrode based on maltodextrin (I) showed the best enantioselectivity and time-stability. The surfaces of the electrodes are easily renewable by simply polishing on an alumina paper.

A new amperometric biosensor based on D-aminoacid oxidase is described for the assay of R-perindopril. R-perindopril can be determined in the 400-20 nmol/L concentration range; the detection limit is 10 nmol/L. The selectivity was checked with S-perindopril, D- and L-proline, and polyvinylpyrrolidone.

A potentiometric, enantioselective membrane electrode based on graphite paste (graphite powder and paraffin oil) has been constructed. The graphite paste is impregnated with a 10(-3) mol/L 2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammoniopropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (as chloride salt) solution. The potentiometric, enantioselective membrane electrode can be used reliably for enantiopurity tests of S-perindopril using a chronopotentiometric (zero current) technique, in the 10(-5)-10(-2) mol/L concentration range (detection limit 5 x 10(-6) mol/L), with an average recovery of 99.

Because S-perindopril enantiomer is the eutomer which is responsible for the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition activity, it is necessary to develop a reliable method for its assay from its distomer, the R-enantiomer. For this purpose, an amperometric biosensor was developed based on L-amino acid oxidase. The working range of the described biosensor was 20pmol/L-10 micromol/L on the 7.
