Abstract

Adsorption and electrochemical reduction of pyrantel pamoate are studied in Britton Robinson buffer medium at hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) by Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetric technique. The peak current shows a linear dependence with the drug concentration over the range 250 ng mL−1 to 64 μg mL−1. Applicability to assay the drug in urine samples is illustrated in the concentration range 5–20 μg mL−1.
