Desenvolvimento de metodologia eletroanalítica para determinação de dipirona em amostras de medicamentos, de aguas naturais e de urina humana.

Abstract

The present work describes the development of an electroanalytical methodology using boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE) associated to the square wave voltammetry (SWV) technique for the determination of dipyrone (DIP) in commercial formulations, waters of the Gavião dam, Acarape of the Meio and in human urine. By means of the cyclic voltammetric (CV) technique, it was verified that the oxidation of the DIP on the surface of the BDDE presents irreversible behavior, diffusional control, as well as a reaction mechanism with the participation of protons. Both CV and SWV were calculated, respectively, 0.19 and 0.11 as values for the load transfer coefficient. Once the optimized reaction conditions were established, which were BR buffer pH 7.0 as support electrolyte and the parameters f = 100 s−1, a = 25 mV and ΔEs = 2 mV, analytical curves were constructed, determined as region linear regression analysis of 1.0 × 10−6 to 6.5 × 10−5 mol L−1 and the limits of detection (LD) and quantification (LQ) values were respectively 2.64 × 10−7 and 8.80 × 10−7 mol L−1. Regarding the repeatability and reproducibility tests, the results in terms of relative standard deviations (RSD) were below 2.5%. Aiming to evaluate the applicability of the proposed methodology, studies of recovery of DIP present in the drug in the form of an oral solution in a buffer of BR pH 7.0 were carried out, as well as were carried out in this electrolyte prepared with waters of the Gavião dam, Acarape of the Meio and in electrolyte containing human urine. The mean recovery percentage, followed by the respective DPR value obtained for the recovery studies involving DIP oral solution in buffer pH 7.0, waters of the Gavião dam, Acarape of the Meio and human urine were, Respectively, 108.33 % (DPR 2.67 %); 117.33 % (DPR 2.15 %); 91.00 % (DPR 1.98 %) and 104.00 (DPR 1.92 %). The results of the recovery trials using iodometric titration by means of the methodology proposed by the brazilian pharmacopoeia, with some adaptations, being analyzed DIP oral solution, waters of the Gavião dam, Acarape of the Meio and human urine were, respectively, 100.10 % (DPR 2.86 %); 106.86 % (DPR 2.41 %); 93.34 % (DPR 1.77%) and 104.57 % (DPR 0.76 %). These results, when compared statistically with the results obtained using the VOQ technique, indicated, according to Student's t test, that there was no significant difference between the mean recovery percentage faced, which proved the efficiency of the electroanalytical methodology developed in this work for The determination of DIP in the matrices tested.
