pubmed-article:2284973 | pubmed:abstractText | A new kind of flow-through sensor for atropine has been studied. It exhibits Nernstian response for atropine with a slope of 54 +/- 1 mV/decade over the concentration range of 0.02-200 mmol/L at pH 5-8. The sensitivity coefficients of common compounds were determined. Only bromo-geramine, clonidine, strychnine and amantadine showed remarkable interference. Direct potentiometry for determination of atropine showed an average recovery of 99.2% and a relative standard deviation of 1.3%. It has been used in flow injection analysis (FIA) of atropine, anisodamine and scopolamine and belladonna preparations. Rate of analysis of as high as 60-100 samples/h was achieved. | lld:pubmed |
