The simplest transducer in the development of potentiometric biosensors is the glass pH electrode. Glucose oxidase immobilization was achieved using cellophane [1], nylon [1-6] or nitrocellulose [5,7] membranes that are subsequently fixed on the sensitive bulb of the pH electrode that senses the pH diminution, as a result of the biocatalytical reaction occurring in the enzyme layer (glucose oxi...

All-solid-state sensors with polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-based membranes using off-the-shelf N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) and succinimide (Succ) ionophores were prepared using DOP (dioctyl phthalate) and NPOE (ortho-nitrophenyloctyl ether) as plasticizers. Good responses were obtained when NHS was used. The potentiometric response of the proposed electrode is independent of pH over the range 2-6. Th...

Two quasi-independent methods for potentiometric and optical determination of chloride were simultaneously implemented in a flow system, providing real-time assessment of the quality of results. A potentiometric and an optical polymeric membrane doped with the same indium(III) octaethyl-porphyrin were used as sensor ionophore. The working mechanism and the analytical characteristics of these po...

Potentiometric sensors are attractive tools for the fabrication of various electronic tongues that can be used in wide area of applications, ranging from foodstuff recognition to environmental monitoring and medical diagnostics. Their main advantages are the ability to modify their selectivity (including cross-sensitivity effects) and the possibility of miniaturization using appropriate constru...
