Abstract

OBJECTIVE:To determine the content of levofloxacin by PVC membrane selective electrode. METHODS: A glass electrode coated with levofloxacin PVC membrane was prepared for the first time with the molecular complex of levofloxacin iodide and bismuth iodide as electric active material, and a series study was performed on its responsibility. RESULTS: The electrode gave Nernst response to levofloxacin over the concentration range of 5.0×10-3~1.0×10-5 moL·L-1 with a slope rate of 56.5mV·pC-1, a suitable pH of 2.5~4.0, and an average recovery rate of 98.31%~101.6%(2.80%~4.90%). CONCLUSION: The electrode was simple in operation, and it has a rapid response and good reproducibility, and it is applicable for the quantitative determination of levofloxacin.
