▎ 摘 要
A novel method for the indirect electrochemical determination of ribavirin based on boronic acid-diol recognition was developed using the platform as the sensing element. The device was constructed using a 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA)-electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) modified electrode. When the electrode was immersed in a solution of ribavirin, complexation of boronic acid groups of APBA with ribavirin occurred at the surface of the electrode and simultaneously caused steric hindrance, resulting in a current decrease because the ferricyanide redox probe was unable access the surface. Under the optimized conditions, a linear relationship was obtained between the relative change in current (%Delta i) of [Fe(CN)(6)](3-/4-)and the concentration of ribavirin at levels from 10.0 to 7.50 x 10(2) ng mL(-1). The proposed electrochemical sensor performed with acceptable sensitivity and reproducibility and was successfully used to determine the content of ribavirin in an injection with satisfactory results.
