a pvc ion-selective membrane electrode based on cd-tetraphenyl porphyrine as a carrier was prepared fordetermination of mno4- ion. this electrode revealed good selectivity toward permanganate ion over a widevariety of anions. effects of some experimental parameters such as nature of the plasticizer, the amounts ofcarrier and additive, and concentration of the internal solution on the potential ...

the preparation of polymer membrane selective to iron(ii) ion and its application to ion-selectiveelectrode is reported here. pvc membrane contains iron–selective n-phenylaza-15-crown-5 asionophore. the membrane electrode is highly selective to iron(ii) ion and exhibit good linearresponse over a wide concentration range of 1.0 × 10-2 to 1.0 × 10-6 m with nernstian slope of29.2 ± 0.6 mv per deca...

a highly selective electrode for bromide ion based on aza pyrilium derivative as an excellentionophore is described.the sensor exhibits a good linear response with a slope of ( 60±1 ) mv per decadeover the concentration range of ( 1×10-3 – 9×10-6 m ) , and a detection limit of ( 3×10-6 m ) of bromideions .the electrode response is independent of ph in the range of(4.0 –9.5).selectivity coeffici...

tea is the second most commonly consumed beverage world wide. tea ( camellia sinensis ) is a naturally rich source of fluoride. the quantity of fluoride intake is important in optimizing its dental caries-preventive role. intense concentration of fluoride in tea, can lead to excessive fluoride intake which may cause health problems in turn. the measurement of fluoride intake usually requires in...

Abstract: In this study, a novel method based on a Bi/glassy carbon electrode (Bi/GCE) for quantitatively and directly detecting Cd2+ in the presence of Cu2+ without further electrode modifications by combining square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) and a back-propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) has been proposed. The influence of the Cu2+ concentration on the stripping res...

Copper is an essential trace element that may serve as a signaling molecule in the nervous system. Here we show that extracellular Cu2+ is a potent inhibitor of BK and Shaker K+ channels. At low micromolar concentrations, Cu2+ rapidly and reversibly reduces macrosocopic K+ conductance (G(K)) evoked from mSlo1 BK channels by membrane depolarization. GK is reduced in a dose-dependent manner with ...

a new cesium ion selective pvc membrane based on parent calix [4] arene was developed for potentiometric determination of cesium in environmental samples. the electrode based on p-5,11,17,23tetra(tertbutyl) 25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxy calix[4]arene(thc) as ionophor ,dibutyl phthalate (dbp)as plasticizer ,sodium tetra phenyl borate(natpb)and oleic acid as lipophilic salt and additive showed the bes...

potentiometric investigation on {h2o+nano3+peg1500} mixtures were made at t=308.15k, using electrochemical cells with two ion-selective electrodes, (na+ glass) as the cation ion-selective electrode against (no3- solvent-polymer pvc) as the anion ion-selective electrode. the mean ionic activity coefficients of nano3 were measured at different concentrations of  nano3 and peg. maximum concentrati...

We present a one-step, solid-state synthesis of Al2NiCoO5 nanoflakes (ANC) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for ultra-selective and trace level simultaneous detection HMIs like copper (Cu2+), mercury (Hg2+), cadmium (Cd2+), lead (Pb2+) ions in aqua simulated blood serum samples. ANC/GCE sensor exhibits low limit (LOD = 3S/m) 0.00154 ppb, 0.00232 0.00261 ppb 0.00114 towards Pb2+, Hg2+ Cu2+...

fe2+ ion-selective membrane sensor has been fabricated from polyvinyl chloride (pvc) matrixmembrane containing neutral carrier tetra phenyl porphyrin (tpp) ionophore. the addition ofsodium tetraphenylborate (natpb) and the plasticizer dbp has been found to substantiallyimprove the performance of the sensor. the best performance was obtained with the sensor havinga membrane of composition of tpp...
