Este medicamento pertence a uma classe de compostos chamados de baixo ?ndice terap?utico, cuja dose t?xica ? muito pr?xima da dose terap?utica. Assim, a determina??o de CO em formula??es farmac?uticas e em fluidos biol?gicos ? de maior import?ncia para o controle de qualidade nos estudos farmac?uticos e farmacol?gicos na condu??o da elimina??o da droga. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho apresenta m?todos simples, r?pidos e de baixos custos para determina??o de CO em formula??es farmac?uticas e urina por amperometria de m?ltiplos pulsos (MPA) com an?lise de inje??o em fluxo, sistema (FIA), usando eletrodo de diamante dopado com boro (BDD). O estudo foi realizado em diferentes eletr?litos, Britton-Robinson de pH que variou de 2 a 12, solu??o de hidr?xido de s?dio e ?cido sulf?rico, ambos na concentra??o de 0,1 mol L-1. As melhores condi??es para o eletr?lito de suporte foi em ?cido sulf?rico 0,1 mol L-1, em que a CO apresentou processos de oxida??o em 1,20 e 1,41 V e uma redu??o de detec??o em -0,9 V. MPA foi baseado na aplica??o potencial dos dois impulsos de: (1) para a oxida??o de CO e (2) para a redu??o do produto gerado, o qual foi utilizado para a determina??o das amostras de f?rmacos. Assim, no sistema FIA-MPA foram aplicados pulsos potenciais de 1,7 V / 500 ms e -1,1V / 30 ms. Os demais par?metros foram otimizados como: taxa de fluxo e volume da amostra em 4,5 mL min-1 e 330 ?L, respectivamente. Sob estas condi??es, foi obtida duas faixas lineares de 0,1 ? 2,0 ? mol L-1 e 20 x 10-5 a 500 x 10-4 mol L-1 com coeficiente de correla??o linear de 0,992 e 0,998, respectivamente. O limite de detec??o obtido foi de 2,14 x 10-8 mol L-1 para o CO. O desvio padr?o relativo de inje??es consecutivas de 10 respostas sobre a concentra??o de CO de 1,0 x 10-4 mol L-1 foi de 1,28% em -1.1 V. O sistema foi validado em compara??o com o m?todo oficial (HPLC / UV). Os resultados das recupera??es obtidas por meio do m?todo proposto para ambas as amostras foram pr?ximo a 100%. Portanto, o m?todo proposto por FIA-MPA utilizando eletrodo BDD pode ser aplicado com sucesso para a determina??o de CO em amostras de urina e farmac?uticas, com vantagens em rela??o ao m?todo oficial e outros m?todos descritos na literatura. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

This medication belongs to a class of compounds called low therapeutic index, whose toxic dose is much close to the therapeutic dose. Thus, the determination of CO in pharmaceutical formulations and in biological fluids is of the utmost importance for the quality control in pharmaceutical and pharmacological studies in conducting the elimination of the drug. In this context, the present work presents simple, fast and low-cost methods for determination of CO in pharmaceutical formulations and urine by multiple-pulse amperometric (MPA) with flow-injection analysis (FIA) system using boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode. Study was carried out in different electrolytes, Britton-Robinson buffer pH ranging from 2 to 12, sodium hydroxide solution and sulfuric acid, both at a concentration of 0.1 mol L-1. The best conditions for the support electrolyte was sulfuric acid 0.1 mol L-1, where the CO showed oxidation processes at 1.20 and 1.41 V and one of reduction at -0.9 V. MPA detection was based on the potential application of two pulses: (1) for oxidation of CO and (2) for reduction in the generated product, which was used for the determination of the drug in the samples. Thus, in the FIA-MPA system were applied potential pulses of 1.7 V / 500ms and -1.1V / 30ms. The other parameters were optimized as: flow rate and sample volume in 4.5 mL min-1 and 330 ?L, respectively. Under these conditions, it was achieved two linear ranges of 0.1 to 2.0 ?mol L-1 and of 20 to 500 ?mol L-1 with great linear correlation coefficient for both ranges 0.992 and 0.998 respectively. The limit of detection obtained was of 2.14 x 10-8 mol L-1 for CO. Relative standard deviation of injections of 10 consecutive responses on CO concentration of 1.0 x 10-4 mol L-1 was 1.28% at -1.1 V. The system was validated in comparison with the official method (HPLC / UV). The results of the recoveries obtained through the proposed method for both samples are around 100%. Therefore, the method proposed by FIA-MPA using BDD electrode can be successfully applied for the determination of CO in pharmaceutical and urine samples, with advantages in relationship official method and others methods described in the literature.
