可卡因是美国最常见的贩运和滥用药物之一,可部署的现场测试对于在非实验室环境下快速识别非常重要。目前,存在用于现场测定的比色法测试,但这些测试基本上受到干扰效应的影响。可卡因是一种有机盐,作为阳离子易溶于水,以去质子化的中性形式几乎不溶。在这里,我们利用水的电化学窗口,通过驱动水还原来增加电极表面的pH值,有效地电沉淀可卡因碱。电极表面的沉淀物然后通过充分的正电位伏安扫描进行电化学氧化。与普鲁卡因、利多卡因、苯佐卡因、咖啡因和左旋咪唑等常见掺杂物相比,我们证明了对可卡因的极好选择性。最后,我们在碳纤维微电极上检测可卡因,证明了其微型化,并允许使用低阻力介质(例如自来水)。
Cocaine is one of the most commonly trafficked and abused drugs in the United States, and deployable field tests are important for rapid identification in nonlaboratory settings. At present, colorimetric tests exist for in-field determination, but these fundamentally suffer from interferent effects. Cocaine is an organic salt that is readily water soluble as a cation and almost insoluble in the deprotonated neutral form. Here, we take advantage of the electrochemical window of water to increase the pH at the electrode surface by driving water reduction, effectively electroprecipitating the cocaine base. The precipitate on the electrode surface is then electrochemically oxidized by a voltammetric sweep through sufficiently positive potentials. We demonstrate excellent selectivity to cocaine compared to common adulterants, such as procaine, lidocaine, benzocaine, caffeine, and levamisole. Finally, we detect cocaine on a carbon fiber microelectrode, demonstrating miniaturizability and allowing access to low-resistance media (e.g., tap water).
