Abstract
In this paper, we describe the research and development of a method of analysis for the determination of paracetamol by square wave voltammetry (SWV) at carbon nanotubes modified EPPGE. A comparison of the voltammetric signals of paracetamol on SWNT modified EPPGE with MWNT modified EPPGE and bare EPPGE has been made. The procedure has been applied satisfactorily to the determination of paracetamol in different pharmaceutical products and biological fluids. The method is simple, rapid and sensitive and no preparation
procedures were required for the analysis of paracetamol. To the best of our knowledge there is no report on using single-walled carbon nanotubes modified edge plane pyrolytic graphite electrodes for determination of paracetamol.
