Al3+-Potentiometric sensor, based on (2Z) -methyl 2- ((z) (p-tolylimino)-3-ethyl -4-oxothiazolidin -5- ylidene) Acetate (MTEOY) as a neutral ionophore, was successfully developed for the detectionof Al3+ in aqueous solutions. The electrode responds to Al3+ ion with a sensitivity of 19.8 ± 0.1 mV/decade over the range 1.0 x 10-8- 1.0 x 10-1 mol LT' and in a pH range of 3.0-9.0. The electrodeshow...

Methods routinely utilized for detection of phenylalanine in new-born blood consist of enzymatic assays, lacking sensitivity and HPLC assays which are expensive and time-consuming to conduct. We, here, report for the first time, the construction of a phenylalanine sensitive electrode, on the basis of a selective molecularly imprinted polymer, offering sensitivity, economy and ease of use for th...

Rates of chloride ion diffusion in narrow (ca. 3 microm thick), rectangular (ca. 0.1 x 1.0 mm(2)) channels partially filled with polystyrene microspheres are investigated by a potentiometric electrochemical time-of-flight (P-ETOF) method. Lithographically fabricated on glass slides, P-ETOF devices consist of a centrally positioned 10 microm wide, ca. 1 mm long generator microelectrode and two s...

The use of electronic tongues is proposed for two different environmental monitoring applications. This approach in chemical analysis consists of an array of nonspecific sensors coupled with a multivariate calibration tool. In this case, the proposed arrays were formed by potentiometric sensors based on polymeric membranes (PVC) and the subsequent cross-response processing was based on a multil...

2-Amino-N-benzthioazolyl benzamide (ABTB) was synthesized, characterized and used for thefabrication of a potentiometric sensor for Cu2+ metal ions. The electrode exhibits linear response to Cu(II) over a wide concentration range (4.79×10 -8 – 1.85×10 -1 M) with Nernstian slope of 30 ± 1.5 mVper decade. The electrode can be used in the pH range from 2 to 9. It has a fast response time of about1...

Abstract The detection of hazardous carcinogenic heavy metals in aqueous solutions is important for biological health and environmental protection. There are various techniques to ascertain these oncogenic chemicals an solution, like a potentiometric electrochemical sensor, spectrophotometer colorimeter chemical sensors. As compared other available methods, the sensor has advantages such as low...

A dual microelectrode electrochemical time-of-flight technique in which diffusion flux of Ag+, Cl-, or H+ ions electrochemically produced at a generator electrode is measured by recording potential-time transients with Ag, Ag/AgCl, or iridium oxide potentiometric microsensors, respectively, is developed. The generator and microsensor electrodes are typically spaced by 50-100 microm and are inco...

A simple, precise, rapid and low-cost potentiometric method for diclofenac determination in pharmaceuticals is proposed. A new diclofenac-sensitive electrode was constructed by incorporating the diclofenac ion pair complex with butyl rhodamine B into graphite matrix. The electrode exhibited a linear response over the concentration range of 1 × 10-4 – 5 × 10-2 mol L-1, a detection limit of 3.9×1...
