Using mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and phosphate buffer pH 2.5 (40:60, v/v), separation of 2- and 4-aminobiphenyl and 1- and 2-aminonaphthalene was achieved within 10 min and limits of determination between 3·10–8 mol L–1 and 8·10–8 mol L–1 were obtained for amperometric detection. In comparison with spectrophotometric detection, it is superior in both sensitivity and selectivity. The developed method was applied on the analysis of spiked samples of urine. Solid phase extraction was used for a preliminary separation and preconcentration of the tested analytes, leading to the decrease of limits of determination to the values between 7.2·10–9 mol L–1 and 2.7·10–8 mol L–1.

The latter is documented on a rapid progress of ionic liquid-modified carbon paste electrodes (IL-CPEs), the so-called carbon ionic liquid electrodes (CILEs), and related configurations in the last half-decade, within the period of 2005-2010.

Advantages and possibilities of these novel electrode materials were highlighted and demonstrated at a number of sensitive voltammetric and amperometric (HPLC, flow injection analysis) methods developed in our UNESCO Laboratory of Environmental Electrochemistry in the last five years. The determined analytes were hazardous organic chemical carcinogens and genotoxic environmental pollutants, pesticides, antitumor, antibiotic and antivirotic drugs, and explosives containing electrochemically reducible nitro, nitroso, azido, and oxo groups.

Sensors prepared allowed to measure pH in the range of 3-10 and 10-13. The pH electrodes proposed can take advantage in strong alkaline and corrosive systems where the use of traditional glass electrode is limited. Also, they can serve as the low-cost indicator electrodes in acid-base titrations. Fri, 01 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10195/38256 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z
