Abstract:
Determination of hepatotoxic drugs is critical for both clinical diagnosis and quantity control of their pharmaceutical formulations. In this work, a facile and sensitive sensor based on MXene modified screen-printed electrode (MXene/SPE) has been developed for detection of acetaminophen (ACOP) and isoniazid (INZ), which are two commonly used drugs but might induce liver damage in certain circumstances. MXene showed excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of ACOP and INZ compared with bare SPE in 0.1 M H2SO4, and the separated oxidation peak potentials ensured simultaneous detection of the targets with wide linear ranges from 0.25 to 2000 μM for ACOP and 0.1-4.6 mM for INZ. The detection limits of ACOP and INZ were 0.048 μM and 0.064 mM, respectively. (S/N = 3). MXene/SPE exhibits good stability, reproducibility and repeatability, and the method has been successfully applied for detection of ACOP and INZ in their pharmaceutical and biological samples with satisfactory recovery.

Electrodes: Overview
There are two main types of electrodes in electrochemical cells. The first type, known as the working or indicator electrode, has a potential that is sensitive to the analyte's concentration and reacts to changes in...
Modified Boxplots
However, the box plot does not tell the reader about outliers - values that lie far from the center of the data. We can modify the standard box and whisker plot to identify the outliers and visualize the actual spread of the data in a sample.
Initially, we calculate the adjusted...
