چکیده

A glass electrode apparatus is described with which pH measurements can be made with as small volumes as 2 drops (about 0.14 cc.) of solution. Using this apparatus the change of pH of the vacuolar sap of Nitella, due to the penetration of brilliant cresyl blue, has been readily followed. The sap and the dye have been found to poison the usual type of hydrogen electrode.

pH VALUES OF VERY SMALL VOLUMES OF SOLUTION

In a recent article 1 the authors have described a new type of glass electrode, which is of convenient size, and a t the same time of sufficiently low resistance for accurate work. Such an electrode is shown diagrammatically on the right-hand side of Fig. 1. The lower end of glass tube A supports the glass diaphragm D which in our experiments has been about 0.001 ram. thick. The tube A is par t...

Inverse Model of the Glass pH Sensor

Introduction The concentration of ion H (pH) in solution plays very important role in chemical, biological and physical processes. Since Cremer (1906) first reported the pH response of oxide glasses, many theoretical researches about the glass electrode and its applications have been carried out. The glass electrode is stable mechanically and chemically and can be used in the wide range of solv...

Application of carbon ceramic modified electrode with prussian blue for electrocatalytic oxidation of nitrite ion

A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex was achieved on the surface of glass carbon electrode by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical behavior of modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in detail. The film electrode obtained was very stable and exhibited electrocatalytic response for oxidation of nitrite. Results showed at bare GC electrode, a...

Intracellular Ph of Rat Atrial Muscle Fibers Measured by Glass Micropipette Electrodes.

• Caldwell* was the first to measure directly the pH of large cells (crab muscle fibres) with a glass electrode. Kostyuk and Sorokina reduced considerably the dimensions of the glass electrode and measured directly the intracellular pH of sartorius muscle (frog). Finally, Carter first measured the intracellular pH of a mammalian cell (rat voluntary muscle) by means of a double-barreled microele...
