The calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 3.6-8.1 and 12.7-61.1 mu M on MWCNTPE, 0.27-15.2 mu M on TiO2-MWCNTPE. The recommended method was successfully applied to the determination of the drug in tablets and human serum samples with good recoveries. The selectivity of the proposed method was considered in the presence of Ca2+, K+, Na+, 2-mercapto benzimidazole, thiourea, and dopamine by means of recovery tests. Interfering agents did not show considerable effect on TAD determination. No electroactive interferences from the tablet excipients and endogenous substances from biological material were detected. The possible electrooxidation pathway and the number of transferred electrons were also investigated.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTadalafilVoltammetryTiO2 nanoparticlesMWCNT composite paste electrodePharmaceutical dosage formArticleQ4Q2181027092720WOS:000342414600007
