Abstract:

Trimetazidine is a widely available coronary artery dilating drug. However, it is listed as prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Code. Herein, the polyimide tape is used as the substrate, and integrated graphene array electrodes are easily prepared by combining patterning design and laser engraving techniques. The effect of laser power on the structure and performance of graphene array electrodes is investigated. When the laser power is increased from 50% to 70%, the electrochemically active area, the electron exchange capacity, and the signal enhancement effect of the graphene arrays to trimetazidine gradually increase. However, these properties decrease as the power continues to increase to 80%. The electrochemical oxidation mechanism of trimetazidine is investigated, which involves the transfer of two electrons and two protons. Based on the laser-induced signal enhancement of graphene arrays, a sensitive and simple electrochemical method for the determination of trimetazidine is developed with the linear range of 0.5~20 μmol/L and the detection limit of 0.15 μmol/L. This method is successfully applied to the analysis of urine samples from healthy volunteers, and the recoveries of the spiked samples are in the range of 96.0% to 106.2%.
