Resumo

An electroanalytical procedure for the imipramine quantitation in commercial formulation and reconstituted serum was developed in Britton Robinson buffer solution, as supporting electrolyte (0.1 mol L-1, pH 7.0), with a GPU (graphite-polyurethane composite) electrode and the square wave voltammetry (SWV) technique. The obtained detection limit (LD) and the lower level of quantitation (LLOQ) were 58.3 ng L-1 and 84 mu g L-1, respectively. The procedure is simple, rapid, and precise for the analysis of imipramine in pharmaceutical formulation (98.9 +/- 01.3%, 24.7 +/- 0.4 mg) without the interference of the excipients. The proposal of direct analysis of imipramine in synthetic serum sample is satisfactory (90.3 +/- 3.6%, 22.6 +/- 0.9 mg, LD 26.4 mu g L-1, LLOQ 100 mu g L-1), considering the analysis was taken without prior extraction or other sample treatment, which can save costs and reduces the possibility of contamination caused by sample manipulation.
