Construction of Modified Carbon Paste Electrodes for Determination of Tramadol in Very Trace Amounts by Muthana S. Ali

“… This research includes estimating the drug (Tramadol Hydrochloride, TR) using the potentiometric method by constructing selective electrodes for TR drug with the active ingredient (Ammonium Reinackate, AR) using a plasticizer (Nitro benzene, NB) and adding nanomaterials (Multi wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT), Nanosilica) for carbon paste electrodes to increase selectivity and sensitivity towards the material to be estimated. The results showed that the manufactured electrodes were able to estimate tramadol hydrochloride in the pharmaceutical preparation (tramadol tablets) at very low concentrations (trace amounts) up to 5.0×10-6 M using the direct and standard methods and proved to have a wide linear range up to 1.0´10-8 - 1.0´10-2 M. …”
