A PVC membrane electrode based on 1-[({[(butylsulfunyl)carbothioyl]disulfanyl} carbothioyl)sulfanyl]butane as a suitable ion carrier for determination of lanthanum(III) ion was prepared. This electrode revealedsuch a good selectivity toward La3+ ion over a wide variety of other metal ions. Some experimental parametersuch as membrane composition, nature, and amount of plasticizer, the amount of ...

A novel ion selective PVC membrane electrode for determination of propranolol is developed. Silicotungstic acid is used as the counter ion and diisononyl phthalate (DNP) used as the plastizer. The electrode exhibits excellent potential response properties, showing a Nernstian response in the concentration of 3.0 × 10–6 ~ 2.6 × 10–2 M with the slope of 54.7 mV per decade, shorter conditioning ti...

1, 3-Bis(2-cyanobenzene)triazene, L, was used as a suitable ionophore for the fabrication of a new PVC-based polymeric membrane coated graphite electrode for selective sensing of Cd2+ ion. The electrode exhibited a selective linear Nernstian response to Cd2+ ion at an optimal pH range of 6-9 with a limit of detection of 8.0 × 10-6 M and a fast response time of about 2 s. The electrode was used ...

Ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) are widely used in clinical examinations. The mechanisms of ISEs have been studied to develop a disposable ISE for "dry chemistry" analyses. The behavior of Na+ and Ag+ in an ion-selective polymer liquid membrane (ISM) containing methyl monensin (MMO), which is selective for Na+, has been clarified by x-ray microanalysis and measurement of electrical potential. T...
