This study presents electrochemical determination of diclofenac sodium (DCS) in a pharmaceutical sample using copper nanoparticles reduced graphene oxide hybrid electrodes (Cu NPs/rGO). rGOnanosheets were synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by modified Hummers method, and then, Cu NPs were electrodeposited on rGO/GCE. Results of structure and morphology studies by SEM and XRD revealed that the irregular Cu NPs electrodeposited in crystal structure with approximately 130nm diameter. Electrochemical analyses using the CV technique showed that Cu NPs/rGO/GCE exhibited a higher sensitivity for determination of DCS than that GCE, rGO/GCE and Cu NPs/GCE due to synergetic effect of Cu NPs and rGO which facilitates the electron transfer between the electrode and the electroactive species in solution and improve electrocatalytic oxidation of DCS. Amperometry measurements on Cu NPs/rGO/GCE as DCS sensor showed that linear range, limit of detection and sensitivity were obtained 20 to 400 mu M, 8nM and 0.0356 mu A/mu M, respectively. The applicability of Cu NPs/rGO/GCE to determine DCS concentration in the prepared real pharmaceutical sample was examined and results showed that recovery (>= 97.66%) and RSD (
