In the study, novel and sensitive carbon paste electrodes (CPEs) developed for thepotentiometric measurement of Cr(III) and Mg(II) ions in pharmacological and water samples.CPEs as indicator electrodes were prepared from a mixture of four components, includinggraphite powder, paraffin oil, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and a greenionophore (Chitosan Schiff base...

The construction and general performance characteristics of three piezoelectric quartz crystal sensors responsive to the pentoxyverine are described here. This kind of non-potentiometric sensing method is based on use of ion-pair complexes of the pentoxyverine cation with three counter anions, namely, tungstophosphate, tetraphenylborate and picrolonate. The complexes were embedded in a PVC matr...

A novel fully spray coating-based method of the preparation of all-solid-state ion-selective electrodes of simplified construction is proposed. This method is an alternative for screen-printed electrodes used sometimes in potentiometric applications. The benefits of the herein-proposed approach include fully automatic sensor preparation and minimized use of chemicals allowing for the production...

Current trends in electrochemical studies of nonaqueous solutions are discussed with the emphasis on experimental approaches judged to be particularly promising for the future development of both fundamental and applied aspects of the field of solution chemistry. Topics include recent developments in the application of potentio— metric sensors to nonaqueous solutions, the potentialities of such...

The unique potentiometric response of mercury sensors was investigated in aqueous Cl(-)-rich media, which are often encountered in natural, especially biological samples. The conventional neutral-carrier-based Hg(II)-ISEs are not practically useful because the Cl(-) concentrations in natural aqueous samples are normally too high for mercury to be present in the form of Hg(2+). Negative potentio...
