The construction and performance characteristics of dextromethorphan (DXM) carbon paste (CPEs) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) electrodes are described. Different modes for electrode modification, including incorporation of ion pairs (IPs), ion pairing agent or soaking the plain electrode in IPs suspension, have been used. Matrices compositions were optimized referring to the effect of modifier and plasticizer. The fabricated electrodes work satisfactorily in the concentration range from 10(-5) to 10(-2) mol L(-1) with fast response time (1.6s) and long operational lifetime (2 months). The developed electrodes have been successfully applied for the potentiometric determination of DXM in pharmaceutical formulation under batch and flow injection analysis (FIA) conditions. Under FIA conditions, the proposed electrodes allow the analysis of 90 samples h(-1) and offer the advantage of simplicity, accuracy and automation feasibility. The solubility products of various DXM-IPs were determined conductometrically.

D003915 Dextromethorphan Methyl analog of DEXTRORPHAN that shows high affinity binding to several regions of the brain, including the medullary cough center. This compound is an NMDA receptor antagonist (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and acts as a non-competitive channel blocker. It is one of the widely used ANTITUSSIVES, and is also used to study the involvement of glutamate receptors in neurotoxicity. d-Methorphan,Delsym,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, (+-)-Isomer,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, Monohydrate,Dextromethorphan Hydrochloride,Dextromethorphan, (+-)-Isomer,Racemethorphan,Hydrobromide, Dextromethorphan,Hydrochloride, Dextromethorphan
