AB  - A comprehensive investigation of tyrosine kinase inhibitor erlotinib (ERL) electrochemical behavior and interaction with DNA was performed with the aim to clarify its redox mechanism and to determine the mode of binding. Irreversible oxidation and reduction processes of ERL on glassy carbon electrode were investigated using three voltammetric techniques CV, DPV, SWV in pH range between 2.0 and 9.0. Oxidation was established as an adsorption-controlled process, while the reduction manifested diffusion-adsorption mixed controlled process in acidic medium and adsorption became predominant in the neutral solutions. According to the determined number of transferred electrons and protons, oxidation and reduction mechanism of ERL are proposed. To follow the interaction between ERL and DNA, the multilayer ct-DNA electrochemical biosensor was incubated in ERL solutions concentrations ranged from 2 × 10–7 M to 5 × 10–5 M (pH 4.6) for 30 min. SWV measurements have shown the decrease in deoxyadenosine peak current as a consequence of ERL increased concentration and binding to ct-DNA. The calculated value of binding constant was K = 8.25 × 104 M−1. Molecular docking showed that ERL forms hydrophobic interactions when docked into minor groove, as well as when intercalated, and molecular dynamics analysis predicted the stability of obtained complexes. These results together with voltammetric studies imply that the intercalation could be more dominant way ERL binding to DNA compared to minor groove binding.

AB  - Ivermectin (IVM) is a drug from the group of anthelmintics used in veterinary and human medicine. Recently, interest in IVM has increased as it has been used for the treatment of some malignant diseases, as well as viral infections caused by the Zika virus, HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. The electrochemical behaviour of IVM was investigated using cyclic (CV), differential pulse (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) at glassy carbon electrode (GCE). IVM showed independent oxidation and reduction processes. The effect of pH and scan rate indicated the irreversibility of all processes and confirmed the diffusion character of oxidation and reduction as an adsorption-controlled process. Mechanisms for IVM oxidation at the tetrahydrofuran ring and reduction of the 1,4-diene structure in the IVM molecule are proposed. The redox behaviour of IVM in a biological matrix (human serum pool) showed a pronounced antioxidant potential similar to that of Trolox during short incubation, whereas a prolonged stay among biomolecules and in the presence of an exogenous pro-oxidant (tert-butyl hydroperoxide, TBH) resulted in a loss of its antioxidant effect. The antioxidant potential of IVM was confirmed by voltametric methodology which is proposed for the first time.

AB  - Electrochemical oxidation of newly synthesized acridine derivatives (ADs): PG, PA, EG and EA was studied using square wave voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode. Oxidation occurs as an irreversible process for all ADs. The ADs interaction with DNA was investigated using multi-layer DNA electrochemical biosensor. The shift of dA peak in positive direction indicated that the type of interaction is most likely an intercalation. PG showed the widest range of concentration capable to interact with DNA (1 × 10−7 M − 2.5 × 10−4 M). Analysing [Formula presented] vs logcAD plots, the binding constants were determined. For the lowest PG concentrations, obtained K value close to 106 M−1 refers to strong binding. The values of K for PA may be classified as medium strength, while EG and EA showed low K values. Our results unequivocally showed that the characteristics of association complexes may vary depending on the concentration of the interacting substance. The negative ΔG value for all ADs, (- 21 to - 34 kJ mol−1), confirms the process spontaneity. The best result, indicating the most stable formed complex with DNA adsorbed at the electrode surface, showed PG when present in low concentration, order of 10−7 M. The intercalation of ADs into DNA was supported by molecular docking analysis.

transformations during interactions with other electroactive biomolecules. Electrochemical
behavior was examined by cyclic (CV), differential pulse (DPV) and square wave
voltammetry (SWV) using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The effect of pH was examined in
the pH range 2–10. The results confirmed that IVM is electroactive in the entire study area.
IVM shows the main oxidation peak at a potential of about 1.0 V, which is most intense in a
neutral environment, and an additional (weakly expressed) peak, due to oxidation of the
reduced drug form. In voltammograms, there is also a peak of low intensity, which originates
from the reduction of the previously oxidized form of the drug. Based on the shape of the
voltammogram, it is concluded that all these processes are irreversible. The analysis of the
influence of the rate of change of potential (pH 4.6 and 7.0) is also responsible for the
adsorption of the active component on the electrode. The presented results indicate the
advantage of applying electrochemical methods in drug analysis due to low cost, high speed
and ease of execution.

AB  - Oxidation of newly synthesized acridine derivatives was studied using cyclic voltammetry at glassy
carbon electrode. Oxidation occurs as irreversible, diffusion-controlled process at pH 4.6 for
compounds 1-3 and as adsorption controlled process for compound 4. The interaction between newly
synthesized acridine compounds (compounds 1-4) and dsDNA was studied using a multilayer dsDNA
biosensor applying square wave voltammetry. Peak current corresponding to deoxyadenosine
decreased after 30 minutes of interaction suggesting interaction with dsDNA.

AB  - The electrochemical behavior of 9-chloroacridine (9Cl-A), a precursor molecule for synthesis of acridine derivatives with cytostatic activity, is a complex, pH-dependent, diffusion-controlled irreversible process. Oxidation of 9Cl-A initiates with the formation of a cation radical monomer, continues via the formation of a dimer subsequent oxidation to new cation radical. Reduction of 9Cl-A produces radical monomers which are stabilized by dimer formation. The investigation was performed using cyclic, differential pulse and square wave voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode. The interaction between 9Cl-A and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) was investigated using a multilayer dsDNA-electrochemical biosensor and 9Cl-A solutions from 1.0×10-7M (the lowest 9Cl-A concentration whose interaction with DNA was possible to detect) up to 1×10-4M. These allowed the binding constant, K=3.45×105M-1 and change in Gibbs free energy of the formed adsorbed complex to be calculated. Complex formation was a spontaneous process proceeding via 9Cl-A intercalation into dsDNA inducing structural changes. The intercalation of 9Cl-A into dsDNA was supported by molecular docking analysis. The combination of simple methodology and the use of biosensors to investigate DNA interactions is a powerful tool to offer insight into aspects of drug design during pharmaceutical development.

AB  - A series of eleven 9-acridinyl amino acid derivatives were synthesized using a two-step procedure. Cytotoxicity was tested on the K562 and A549 cancer cell lines and normal diploid cell line MRC5 using the MTT assay. Compounds 6, 7, 8 and 9 were the most active, with IC50 values comparable to or lower than that of chemotherapeutic agent amsacrine. 8 and 9 were especially effective in the A549 cell line (IC50 ≈ 6 μM), which is of special interest since amsacrine is not sufficiently active in lung cancer patients. Cell cycle analysis revealed that 7 and 9 caused G2/M block, amsacrine caused arrest in the S phase, while 6 and 8 induced apoptotic cell death independently of the cell cycle regulation. In comparison to amsacrine, 6, 7, 8, and 9 showed similar inhibitory potential towards topoisomerase II, whereas only 7 showed DNA intercalation properties. In contrast to amsacrine, 6, 7, 8 and 9 showed a lack of toxicity towards unstimulated normal human leucocytes.

AB  - A novel voltammetric method was developed for brimonidine (BRIM) determination in deproteinized aqueous humor, simplifying preparation of biological samples for analysis for stability studies. The differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) method using boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE), based on characteristic oxidation peaks, was proposed and successfully applied. The linearity range was within 5.0 × 10−6 to 5.0 × 10−5 M of brimonidine, and limit of detection and limit of quantitation were 1.94 × 10−6 M and 6.46 × 10−6 M, respectively. Intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracy were evaluated and all results were in accordance with validation ICH guidelines. The best short-term stability study results were obtained for a concentration level of 3.0 × 10−5 M expressed by deviation of + 1.86% between initial and post storage concentrations. A long-term stability study was performed for two concentrations of 3.0 × 10−5 M and 5.0 × 10−5 M and resulted in deviations of + 1.63% and + 3.56%, respectively. A freeze and thaw stability study indicated that samples might be frozen only once. The enhancement of DPV/BDDE method sensitivity gained by modification, for the analysis of immeasurable BRIM quantities in native, untreated aqueous humor, was reached for quantities of 6 or 12 nmol/0.1 mL aqueous humor with acceptable accuracy (up to + 7.5%). The nature of the process—the irreversible one electron oxidation voltammetric peak of BRIM—limited the sensitivity. Only electrochemical pre-treatment of the BDD electrode before each measurement significantly speeded up the whole procedure. The advantages of the proposed method are simplicity, short-time performance, and good specificity/selectivity, as well as satisfactory accuracy, and no chemical modification of BDDE was necessary.

CV was applied to investigate the effect of the supporting electrolyte pH on the SQN electrochemical behavior. In the pH range 2.0 – 10.0, the best current response was obtained at pH 7.0 in phosphate buffer. Results indicated that SQN is oxidized in irreversible process. DPV method was optimized, and the linear dependence of peak current vs. SQN concentration was obtained in the range 3×10-6 ‒ 5×10-5 molL-1, with limits of detection and quantification of 1.53×10-6 molL-1 and 5.10×10-6 molL-1, respectively. DPV was successively applied for SQN determination in veterinary medicine NEOCOCCYN WSP, which contains amprolium hydrochloride, as active component too.

AB  - The adsorption and electroreduction behavior of cefpodoxime proxetil, cefotaxime, desacetylcefotaxime, cefetamet, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, and cefuroxime axetil at a mercury electrode surface were studied using cyclic (CV), differential pulse (DPV) and adsorptive stripping differential pulse (AdSDPV) voltammetry. The quantitative structure property relationship (QSPR) study of the seven cephalosporins adsorption at the mercury electrode was based on density functional theory DFT-B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) calculations of molecular orbitals, partial charges and electron densities of the analytes. The DFT-parameters and QSPR model explain well the process of adsorption of the examined cephalosporins. The QSPR study defined that cephalosporins with lower electron density on the nitrogen atom of the N-O bond, higher number of hydrogen bond-accepting groups, and higher principal moment of inertia should express high adsorption on the mercury electrode.

AB  - The electrochemical behavior of a biologically important heterocyclic compound quinoxaline (QUI) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in solutions of differing pH, using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The reduction of QUI occurs as a quasi-reversible reaction in acid medium, reaching reversibility in alkaline solutions. The kinetic parameters of the electrode process such as αnα, diffusion coefficient (D) and heterogeneous rate constant (ks), were evaluated and discussed. Redox mechanism of QUI was proposed on the basis of experimental results. Reduction process involves a transfer of two electrons and two protons at the pyrazine ring of QUI forming a dihydro-derivative. In acid solutions, the product of QUI reduction undergoes irreversible oxidation in a one-electron process. The electrode processes was found to be diffusion controlled.

AB  - A large number of inorganic and organic compounds is able to bind to DNA and form complexes. Among them, drugs are very important, especially chemotherapeutics. This paper presents the overview of DNA structural characteristics and types of interactions (covalent and non-covalent) between DNA molecule and drugs. Covalent binding of the drug is irreversible and leads to complete inhibition of DNA function, what conclusively, causes the cell death. On the other hand, non-covalent binding is reversible and based on the principle of molecular recognition. Special attention is given to elucidation of the specific sites in DNA molecule for drug binding. According to their structural characteristics, drugs that react non-covalently with DNA are mainly intercalators, but also minor and major groove binders. When the complex between drug and DNA is formed, both the drug molecule, as well as DNA, experienced some modifications. This paper presents the overview of the methods used for the study of the interactions between DNA and drugs with the aim of detection and explanation of the resulting changes. For this purpose many spectroscopic methods like UV/VIS, fluorescence, infrared and NMR, polarized light spectroscopies like circular and linear dichroism, and fluorescence anisotropy or resonance is used. The development of the electrochemical DNA biosensors has opened a wide perspective using particularly sensitive and selective electrochemical methods for the detection of specific DNA interactions. The presented results summarize literature data obtained by the mentioned methods. The results are used to confirm the DNA damage, to determine drug binding sites and sequence preference, as well as conformational changes due to drug-DNA interaction.

AB  - The voltammetric behavior of three cephalosporins: ceftazidime, cefuroxime-axetil and ceftriaxone has been examined in pH range 2.0-8.0 by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), using a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The effect of pH of the electrolyte solution and scan rate on the peak currents and peak potentials was examined. The nature of the electrode reduction process in acid solution was found to be diffusion controlled for ceftazidime and cefuroxime-axetil, but strongly influenced by adsorption in the case of ceftriaxone reduction. The adsorption and reorientation of the ceftriaxone molecule at the electrode surface caused instability of the voltammetric signal and disabled its determination in the acid medium. Ceftriaxone adsorption decreased with the increase of pH, and at pH>7 the reduction process became diffusion controlled. Based on this study, DPV method was developed, validated and suggested for determination of ceftazidime at pH 2.0, cefuroxime-axetil at pH 3.5 and for ceftriaxone at pH 8.0. Linear concentration ranges, limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were determined. The method was applied for determination of cephalosporins in pharmaceutical dosage forms: Ceftazidime powder, Ceroxim tablets and Longaceph powder for injection solution.

Razmatrani su uticaji pH osnovnog elektrolita i brzine promene potencijala na vrednost stuje i potencijala voltametrijskih pikova. Rezultati dobijeni u kiseloj sredini su pokazali da je redukcija ceftazidima i cefuroksim-aksetila difuziono kontrolisan proces, a da je u slučaju ceftriaksona priroda redukcije na elektrodi jako zavisna od adsorpcije. Posledica adsorpcije i reorijentacije molekula ceftriaksona na površini elektrode je nestabilnost i nereproduktivnost voltametrijskog signala što onemogućava određivanje cefriaksona u kiseloj sredini.

AB  - The electrochemical behavior of brimonidine (BRIM), an antiglaucoma agent applied in therapy for lowering high intraocular pressure, was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry and square wave voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The reduction of BRIM occurs as one-step quasi-reversible reaction in acid and neutral medium, reaching the full reversibility in alkaline solutions. Reduction process involves the transfer of two electrons and two protons at the pyrazine ring of quinoxaline moiety, forming a dihydro-derivative. In acid and neutral solutions, brimonidine reduction product is partly oxidized to its hydroxy-derivative. BRIM is also oxidized irreversibly with the transfer of one electron and one proton at secondary amine moiety. The effects of pH of the electrolyte solution, scan rate and BRIM concentration were monitored. The nature of the electrode process was found to be controlled by the adsorption at pH > 6 and the total surface concentration of brimonidine adsorbed onto the GCE surface at pH 7, Gamma(BRIM) = 1.35 x 10(-10) mol cm(-2) was obtained. Based on this study, differential pulse voltammetric method was developed, validated and suggested for rapid electroanalytical determination of the low concentration of brimonidine. The linearity was achieved within the concentration range from 5 x 10(-7) to 5 x 10(-6) M with LOD = 1.6 x 10(-7) M and LOQ = 5.3 x 10(-7) M. The method was applied for brimonidine determination in pharmaceutical dosage form, eye drops.

AB  - An extensive electrochemical study of brimonidine at boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE) was done by applying cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV) in sulfuric acid of different concentrations (pH ranged from 0.6 to 1.6), and in BR buffer (pH ranged from 2.0 to 9.0). It was found that the reduction of brimonidine occurred in a one-step quasi-reversible mechanism, involving the transfer of two electrons and two protons. The reduction process took place at the quinoxaline ring and the corresponding mechanism of reduction was confirmed to be the same as for the other quinoxaline derivatives. The nature of the electrode process was found to be diffusion controlled in acid medium, while in a more alkaline medium a certain degree of adsorption was noticed. Based on this study, two sensitive voltammetric methods, differential pulse (DPV) and square wave (SWV) were developed, fully validated and suggested for rapid electroanalytical determination of low concentrations of brimonidine. The linearity was achieved within the concentration range from 2x10-6 M to 3x10-5 M for DPV (LOD=6.31x10-7 M, LOQ=2.1x10-6 M) and from 5x10-7 M to 1.5x10-5 M for SWV (LOD=1.28x10-7 M, LOQ=4.28x10-7 M). The methods were applied for brimonidine determination in pharmaceutical dosage form, eye drops. The obtained good recoveries suggested these simple and accurate methods for quality control of brimonidine in dosage form. Due to its high sensitivity, the SWV method could be a good alternative for determination of low concentrations of brimonidine, even in biological samples.

AB  - The electrochemical behaviour of a novel nicotinic α4β2 subtype receptor partial agonist varenicline (VAR), which is used for smoking cessation, was investigated in Britton-Robinson buffers (pH 2.0-12.0) by cyclic, differential pulse and square wave voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The influence of pH, scan rate, concentration, accumulation potential and time on the peak current and potential suggested that the redox process was adsorption controlled in alkaline media. In addition, the experimental value of the surface coverage, G = 1.03×10-10 mol cm-2, was used to determine the conditions when VAR was fully adsorbed at the electrode surface. Bearing in mind the potential high toxicity of VAR due to the presence of a quinoxaline structure, its interaction with double stranded-DNA (ds-DNA) was postulated and studied when both compounds were in the adsorbed state at a modified HMDE. Using the adsorptive transfer technique, changes in potential and decreases in the normalized peak currents were observed. The estimated value of the ratio of surface-binding constants indicated that the reduced form of VAR interacted with ds-DNA more strongly than the oxidized form. Subtle DNA damage under conditions of direct DNA-VAR interaction at room temperature was observed. The proposed type of interaction was intercalation. This study employed a simple electroanalytical methodology and showed the potential of a DNA/ /HMDE biosensor for investigation of genotoxic effects.
AB  - Elektrohemijsko ponašanje vareniklina, novog parcijalnog agoniste α4β2 nikotinskog receptora, koji se koristi za odvikavanje od pušenja, ispitano je cikličnom, diferencijalno pulsnom i voltametrijom pravougaonih talasa u Briton-Robinsonovom puferu (pH 2,0-12,0). Na osnovu uticaja pH, brzine promene potencijala, koncentracije, potencijala i vremena akumulacije na visinu i položaj pika, zaključeno je da je proces redukcije u alkalnoj sredini kontrolisan adsorpcijom vareniklina. Korišćenjem eksperimentalno dobijene vrednosti površinske zaposednutosti, G = 1,03×10-10 mol cm-2, određeni su uslovi pod kojima je vareniklin potpuno adsorbovan na površini elektrode. Imajući u vidu moguću visoku toksičnost vareniklina, s obzirom na prisustvo hinoksalinskog prstena u strukturi, pretpostavljeno je da vareniklin interaguje sa DNK kada su oba molekula adsorbovana na modifikovanoj živinoj elektrodi. Ova interakcija je ispitana korišćenjem 'adsorptivne transfer tehnike' i primećene su promene potencijala i smanjenje normalizovanih struja voltametrijskih pikova. Na osnovu izračunate vrednosti odnosa konstanti vezivanja zaključeno je da se redukovani oblik vareniklina jače vezuje za DNK od oksidovanog. Pretpostavljeno je da direktna vareniklin-DNK interakcija na sobnoj temperaturi dovodi do izvesnog oštećenja DNK i da je tip interakcije - interkalacija. Ova jednostavna elektroanalitička metodologija mogla bi naći primenu u vidu potencijalnog biosenzora za ispitivanje genotoksičnih efekata.

This study employed a simple electroanalytical methodology and showed the potential of a DNA/ /HMDE biosensor for investigation of genotoxic effects., Elektrohemijsko ponašanje vareniklina, novog parcijalnog agoniste α4β2 nikotinskog receptora, koji se koristi za odvikavanje od pušenja, ispitano je cikličnom, diferencijalno pulsnom i voltametrijom pravougaonih talasa u Briton-Robinsonovom puferu (pH 2,0-12,0). Na osnovu uticaja pH, brzine promene potencijala, koncentracije, potencijala i vremena akumulacije na visinu i položaj pika, zaključeno je da je proces redukcije u alkalnoj sredini kontrolisan adsorpcijom vareniklina. Korišćenjem eksperimentalno dobijene vrednosti površinske zaposednutosti, G = 1,03×10-10 mol cm-2, određeni su uslovi pod kojima je vareniklin potpuno adsorbovan na površini elektrode. Imajući u vidu moguću visoku toksičnost vareniklina, s obzirom na prisustvo hinoksalinskog prstena u strukturi, pretpostavljeno je da vareniklin interaguje sa DNK kada su oba molekula adsorbovana na modifikovanoj živinoj elektrodi. Ova interakcija je ispitana korišćenjem 'adsorptivne transfer tehnike' i primećene su promene potencijala i smanjenje normalizovanih struja voltametrijskih pikova. Na osnovu izračunate vrednosti odnosa konstanti vezivanja zaključeno je da se redukovani oblik vareniklina jače vezuje za DNK od oksidovanog. Pretpostavljeno je da direktna vareniklin-DNK interakcija na sobnoj temperaturi dovodi do izvesnog oštećenja DNK i da je tip interakcije - interkalacija. Ova jednostavna elektroanalitička metodologija mogla bi naći primenu u vidu potencijalnog biosenzora za ispitivanje genotoksičnih efekata.",

AB  - The electrochemical study of varenicline (VAR) was done in a wide pH range (2-12), at boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE), glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and hanging mercury electrode (HMDE), using cyclic (CV), square wave (SW) and adsorptive stripping square wave (AdSSW) voltammetric techniques. Depending on the pH and the type of the working electrode the characteristic electrochemical behavior of varenicline was established. The mechanism of the reduction process was suggested. Based on the obtained results, the new electroanalytical method was developed for its determination in the buffer solutions and plasma samples. By applying a square wave voltammetry (SWV) on BDDE and GCE, at pH 3.5 and 4.0, the linear dependence in plasma samples was achieved within the concentration range from 2 10(-6) -1 x 10(-5) M and 4 x 10(-6) -1 x 10(-5) M, respectively. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were obtained as 7.1 x 10(-7) M and 2.4 x 10(-6) M on BDDE, and 1.0 x 10(-6) M and 3.5 x 10(-6) M on GCE, respectively. The recovery and RSD values obtained for VAR in plasma suggested BDDE electrode to be preferable in comparison with GCE. The accuracy of the voltammetric method was confirmed by the determination of VAR in plasma spiked with Champix (R) tablets and the results were statistically compared with those obtained with Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) method, as a reference one.

AB  - In the last two decades different electroanalytical methods were used for sensitive and selective determination of cephalosporins. The paper was focused on the electrochemical behavior of methoxyimino cephalosporins, reduction mechanism and nature of the process at the mercury electrode surface. Special attention was paid to the cephalosporins adsorption at the mercury surface. Based on this phenomenon, the adsorptive stripping methods were established for determination of the low concentration of these drugs in urine samples, both in vitro, and in vivo conditions. The application of Adsorptive Stripping Differential Pulse Voltammetry (AdSDPV) for the determination of cefpodoxime proxetil (CP), cefotaxime (CF), desacetylcefotaxime (DCF) and cefetamet (CEF) was summarized. The best sensitivity of in vitro determination in urine was achieved for CP, in acid solutions (LOD 7.4.10(-9) M and LOQ 2.4.10(-8) M), followed by CF, CEF and DCF. This is in accordance with the strength of their adsorption. Determination of CF and DCF by AdSDPV in vivo was also presented. Compared to other analytical methods, AdSDPV showed advantages in the simplicity of sample preparation, and over the other voltamperometric methods, higher sensitivity and selectivity.

AB  - Abstract
It has been shown that peptides and proteins produce at nanomolar concentrations a structure-sensitive chronopotentiometric peak H at mercury electrodes, which is due to the catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).
Herein, we use for the first time poly(amino acids) to obtain information about the role of individual amino acid
residues in the HER. At pH 6 polylysine (polyLys) and polyarginine,tryptophan yield a peak H, in agreement with
their ionization state, while polyglutamic acid gives no catalytic response. PolyLys catalyzes hydrogen evolution in
its adsorbed state. Even at potentials negative to the potential of zero charge, hydrophobic interactions could be involved in polyLys adsorption.

AB  - The electrochemical behaviour of desloratadine (DLOR) and its derivative 3-hydroxydesloratadine (3OH-DLOR) was investigated by direct current (DCP) polarography, cyclic (CV), differential pulse (DPV) and square-wave (SWV) voltammetry in Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solutions (pH 4-11). Both compounds are reduced at mercury electrode in irreversible two electron reduction of the C=N bond of the pyridine ring in their molecules. The difference in their electrochemical behaviour was investigated, and the most pronounced distinction is observed at pH > 9, as a consequence of the deprotonation of the phenolic moiety in 3OH-DLOR molecule, yielding significant change in their reduction potentials (E (p DLOR) = -1.48 V, and E(p 3OH-DLOR) = -1.6 V). The observed results correlate with calculated LUMO energy levels and Hammet substituent constants (sigma). Based on the difference in the reduction potential for DLOR and 3OH-DLOR, conditions for simultaneous determination these two molecules in alkaline medium were established. The best selectivity was achieved using SWV method at pH 10. The linearity of the calibration graphs were achieved in the concentration range from 1.5 x 10(-6) M-1 x 10(-5) M for DLOR and 7.5 x 10(-6) M(-5) x 10(-5) M for 3OH-DLOR with detection limits of 2.29 x 10(-7) M and 2.08 x 10(-6) M, and determination limits of 7.64 x 10(-7) M and 6.94 x 10(-6) M, for DLOR and 3OH-DLOR, respectively. The method was checked in human plasma sample. Good response was obtained with LOD and LOQ values of 4.63 x 10(-7) M and 1.54 x 10(-6) M, for DLOR and 2.39 x 10(-6) M and 7.97 x 10(-6) M, 3OH-DLOR, respectively.
