A view on electrochemical methods of determining β-blockers by utilizing carbon-based electrodes

β-blockers are a type of emerging chemical in the last century which is widely used for various purposes. And β-blockers are mostly used in the medical field to cure several diseases and they also could be used in the early stage of cancer. However,β-blockers could also be applied as a stimulant in sports, which leads to unfairness in sports. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the plausible alternatives in order to determine β-blockers efficiently with high sensitivity and better Limit of Detection (LOD). Electrochemical techniques are the ones with the highest efficiency, sensitivity, conductivity, and accuracy. Among those electrodes, the electrodes based on carbon material stand out owing to their high conductivity, inexpensive price, high sensitivity, and flexibility. In this regard, it mainly analyses some electro analytical techniques for determining β-blockers based on carbon-based electrodes evidenced by previous research. The flexibility of each method and the advantages of modification were also emphasized. In addition, the potential and prospect of the future are summarized.
