The voltammetric response of DH was compared at both constructed electrodes. The electrochemical oxidation of the drug was established using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). For analytical purposes, a wellresolved irreversible diffusive controlled voltammetric peak was obtained at approximately 833 mV using Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer solution of pH 8.00 using GCE. However, in the case of MCPE, a well-resolved irreversible adsorptive controlled voltammetric peak was obtained at approximately 821 mV at pH 6.00 using the same buffer. A linear relationship was attained between the peak current and DH concentration in the concentration range at 0.92-6.18 mu g/mL and 0.13 x10-6-1.93 x10(-6) mu g/mL using GCE and MCPE, respectively. DPV and SWV techniques were developed for the quantitative voltammetric determination of DH in its pure form, in its pharmaceutical dosage form and in biological fluids. The method showed a minimum detectability (LOD) of 0.19 mu g/mL and 0.39 x10(-6) mu g/mL and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.59 mu g/mL and 1.20 x10(-6) mu g/mL with both GCE and MCPE, respectively. The proposed method was validated and compared with the reference method. It revealed good accuracy, precision and reproducible results.enUniversity of Dicyclomine hydrochloride (DH)VoltammetryGlassy carbon electrodeNano iron (III) oxide modified carbon paste electrodeLIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHIC METHODELECTROCHEMICAL-BEHAVIORDIFFERENTIAL-PULSEMEFENAMIC-ACIDHPLC METHODPARACETAMOLArticlehttps://doi.org/10.20964/2018.08.27
