  Ion selective electrode - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ion-selective electrodes are used in biochemical and biophysical research, where measurements of ionic concentration in an aqueous solution are required, usually on a real time basis.
In order to provide the ionic specificity, a specific ion channel or carrier is added to the solution; this allows the ion to pass through the vinyl, which prevents the passage of other ions and water.
In use, the electrode wire is connected to one terminal of a galvanometer or pH meter, the other terminal of which is connected to a reference electrode, and both electrodes are immersed in the solution to be tested.

 Analysis by pH and Ion Selective Electrodes
Ion selective electrodes are a technology that gives direct measurement of cations and anions such as sodium and fluoride, and can also measure dissolved gases such as ammonia and sulphur dioxide.
Electrode methods save time, and since electrodes are portable, measurements can be made on a laboratory bench, the bank of a river or pond, the floor of a manufacturing plant, or the tray of a truck.
For ion selective electrodes, calibration and measurement should be done at the same temperature, and ISA buffers added to both standards and samples.

 Ion selective electrode apparatus and method of producing ion selective electrode apparatus - US Patent 6110338   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
An ion selective electrode of flowthrough type is used for electrochemical measurement of ion species contained in a biological fluid by the electrode method.
The electrode method is a method of electrochemically detecting the reaction of an ion and a sensing substance using an ion-sensing membrane which confine the sensing material sensitive to an ion to be detected.
The method of producing the ion selective electrode used for the electrode method is that the ion-sensing membrane is beforehand made by methods such as casting and then a fragment of the membrane is stuck on an electrode main part.

 Experimental procedure for ISE
Ion selective electrodes are usually classified by the type of ion-sensitive membrane used in their construction, and by the ion for which they are selective.
The electrodes are used to detect the endpoint of the titration, which is indicated by a rapid change in the potential developed in the electrode system.
Electrode titrations permit the analysis of samples that cannot be titrated by conventional colorimetric methods because of sample colour or turbidity.

The electrode still works in the presence of ligands that are capable of forming complexes with the Ln of the electrode crystal.
An interesting feature of this electrode is that it can be used at temperatures between -5°C to100°C. However it should not be subjected to a sudden temperature change of more than 50°C as this may damage the seal between the crystal membrane and the plastic body.
Inversion of the electrode makes it possible for the membrane to be used as a sample container itself and hence permitting measurements as small as one drop.

 Electrochemistry C
In case of an electrode reaction, the electrode itself is considered one of the "reactants." An electrode reaction is always a heterogeneous charge-transfer reaction.
The overpotential of the two electrode reactions will be generally different, and their values will be dictated by the requirement that the electrode potentials be equal (at the "corrosion potential") at one, uniquely defined current (the corrosion current).
Current that is bypassing bipolar electrodes in a series coupled cell assembly (due to insufficient sealing or improper piping around the bipolar electrode) and therefore is not producing the required chemical change (electrode reaction).

The operation of the chloride ion selective electrode (ISE) to be used in this experiment is based on the response of a disc of sensing element, which is sealed into one end of an epoxy tube (Bailey 1980).
