The present work aimed to develop electroanalytical methods using graphite-epoxy and boron-doped diamond electrodes for the determination of the antibiotic gentamicin sulfate, substances of biological interest (naphthoquinones) and the pesticide trifloxystrobin. Boron doped diamond (BDD) features attractive electrochemical detection characteristics that are useful in analytical applications based on voltammetry and amperometry. It has a wide potential window in aqueous solutions that allowed the quantification of the fungicide trifloxystrobin (in +1744 mV versus Ag/AgCl(KClsat)) by square-wave voltammetry (SWV) in Britton-Robinson buffer (0.04 mol L-1, pH 4.00) / acetonitrile 70/30 percent v/v electrolyte medium. The analyte addition curve was constructed using 40 mV pulse amplitude, 30 Hz frequency, 20 mV step potential. The instrumental limit of detection was 1.4 × 10-7 mol L-1 and the linear dynamic range covered three orders of magnitude (from 10-7 to 10-5 mol L-1). Recoveries of about 80 percent in orange juice samples and 92.4 to 104.0 percent in water samples. A study to evaluate potential interferences was carried out in the presence of other fungicides. Diagnostic studies indicated that the oxidation of trifloxystrobin in aqueous medium, on the surface of the BDD, is irreversible, involving two steps, each of them with two electrons. UV degradation of trifloxystrobin was studied using the proposed voltammetric method and degradation kinetics with a half-life of 1.07 min was established. Batch injection amperometry (BIA) with BDD (operating at +2000 mV) was used to develop a method for the determination of gentamicin sulfate. Solid phase extraction (SPE) using a cartridge packed with a molecular imprinting polymer made with kanamycin as the template molecule, was used to improve the selectivity. The acetate buffer (0.01 mol L-1; pH 4.40) was used as supporting electrolyte. Oxidation of gentamicin sulfate occurred right after the analyte (60 microlitres solution) comes into contact with the surface of the electrode. The SPE cartridge packed with MIP was very efficient in retaining the analyte when compared to the one packed with the corresponding non-printed polymer (NIP). The analytical curve was linear, the instrument accuracy was less than 3 percent and the limit of quantification was 2.7 × 10-6 mol L-1. The analytical frequency was 90 measurements h-1 and no memory effect was observed between sequential measurements. The performance of the proposed method was compared with that obtained by HPLC-UV and molecular absorption spectrophotometry (both after chemical derivatization of the analyte with o-phthalaldehyde or with ninhydrin). The method was applied in injectable pharmaceutical formulations and in simulated samples, with recoveries close to 100 percent. For the determination of lapachol SWV was employed using a graphite-epoxy electrode made in the laboratory. The electrolytic medium used was an aqueous solution containing the cationic surfactant CTAB (1.2 × 10-4 mol L-1), phosphate buffer (4.0 × 10 -2 mol L-1, pH 6.00) and KNO3 (1.0 mol L-1). The cationic surfactant improved the diffusion and interaction of the analyte with the electrode, producing a reversible process that improved the total current measured by the system. The lapachol signal was measured at -470 mV after preconcentration at 400 mV for 140 s, using a 30 Hz frequency, 40 mV pulse amplitude with a step potential of 20 mV. The instrumental limit of detection was 0.029 mg L-1 and the dynamic linear range comprised two orders of magnitude. In the presence of beta-lapachone (structural isomer), the selectivity was obtained by the first-order derivative of the SWV signal. The determination of lapachol in ethanolic extract of Tabebuia impetiginosa was carried out after a simple separation of the analyte by thin layer chromatography. The results are statistically similar (with 95 percent confidence level) with those performed through HPLC-UV. Studies for the simultaneous determination of beta-lapachone and alpha-lapachone were also successfully performed.
