The degradation product of cephradine(CEP), a broad spectrum antibiotic, with NaOH was studied in solution by Cyclic Voltammetry and Differential Pulse Voltammetry at a three electrode system (Gold working electrode, Hg/HgCl reference electrode and Platinum counter electrode). Our experiment was based on that the R-SH in degradation product could cause a deoxidization peak at gold working electrode. The response was optimized with respect to accumulation time, ionic strength, drug concentration, reproducibility and other variables. We found that the degradation product of CEP in Na2HPO4-NaH2PO4 buffer could cause a sensitive deoxidization peak at -0.68V. A linear dependence of peak currents on the concentration was observed in the range of 10-7 - 10-6 mol/L, with a detection limit of 0.5*10-7mol/L. This method can achieve satisfactory results in the application of detecting human-made CEP.
