Article Abstract
In recent times, the application of the use of ion-selective electrodes has expanded in the field of pharmaceutical analyses due to their distinction from other sensors in their high selectivity and low cost of measurement, in addition to their high measurement sensitivity. Cost-effective, reliable, and robust all-solid-state potentiometric selective electrodes were designed, characterized, and successfully used for pholcodine determination. The design of the sensor device was based on the use of a screen-printed electrode modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a solid-contact transducer. Tailored pholcodine (PHO) molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were prepared, characterized, and used as sensory receptors in the presented potentiometric sensing devices. The sensors exhibited a sensitivity of 31.6 ± 0.5 mV/decade ( = 5, = 0.9980) over the linear range of 5.5 × 10 M with a detection limit of 2.5 × 10 M. Real serum samples in addition to pharmaceutical formulations containing PHO were analyzed, and the results were compared with those obtained by the conventional standard liquid chromatographic approach. The presented analytical device showed an outstanding efficiency for fast, direct, and low-cost assessment of pholcodine levels in different matrices.

Potentiometric sensors with nanostructural ion-selective membranes were prepared and tested. Electrospun nanofiber mats were applied in novel all-solid-state sensors, using carbon paper as an electronically conducting support. For the sake of simplicity, application of a solid contact layer was avoided, and redox-active impurities naturally present in the carbon paper have proven to be effective as ion-to-electron transducers.

Calcium ions participate in the regulation of almost all biological functions of the body, especially in cardiac excitation-contraction coupling, acting as vital signaling through ion channels. Various cardiovascular drugs exert their effects via affecting the ion channels on the cell membrane. The current strategies for calcium ion monitoring are mainly based on fluorescent probes, which are commonly used for intracellular calcium ion detection (calcium imaging) and cannot achieve long-term monitoring.
