In the present paper, the potentiometric response characteristics of a metalloporphyrin-based electrode in o-nitrophenyloctylether (o-NPOE) plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membrane are presented for a set of monovalent anions. As membrane ionophore, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-porphyrin-Co(II) (CoTMeOPP) was used. To establish the optimum composition of the membrane, different mo...

The potentiometric response characteristics and analytical applications of a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)-free all-solid-state ion-selective electrode for chlorhexidine (CHX) are examined and compared to those of PVC-based solid-state electrode. The PVCfree electrode is prepared by direct incorporation of chlorhexidine-tetraphenyl borate (CHXTPB) as a sensing element into a commercial nail varnis...

In order to study the Cu(II) ion selective electrode, an optimized membrane was prepared by mixing of 30 mg of PVC powdered, 5 mg of considered ionophore, 60 mg of plasticizer and 5 mg of additive. The sensor showed a near Nernstian response for Cu(II) ions over a concentration range from 1.0×0-6 –1.0×0-2 M with a slope of 28.90.5 mV per concentration decade with a working pH range of 3.5-6.3. ...

Cobalt has great biological effects on human beings and also other living organisms, hence its determination is very important. In this regard, a novel coated graphite electrode was designed for determination of Co2+ ions by exploiting 6-chloro-11- azabenzo[a]phenothiazin-5-one as a neutral ion carrier, for the first time. The foremost function was witnessed from the membrane composition of PVC...

Manganese plays a key role in the health of human beings therefore, its determination is very important in medical fields. In this regards, a novel coated graphite electrode was constructed for determination of manganese (II) by using zolpidem as an ionophore, for the first time. The best performance was obtained of the membrane composition of PVC (32%), Potassium tetrakis (4-chlorophenyl) bora...

N-(2H-[1,2,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-a]pyridine-2-ylidene)benzamide was used as a selective sensing material in the PVC membrane to construction of a new chromium ion selective electrode. This liquid membrane electrode worked well with a Nernstian response of 19.7 ±0.4 mV decade-1 of Cr(III) in a wide dynamic concentration range of 8.0× 10-6-1.0×10-1 M. The electrode had relatively short response time ...

A flow-injection coulometric method for the determination of chlorpromazine based on ion transfer into a plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane, was developed. The detector used consists of a flow-through cell that incorporates a plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane which contains tetrabutylammonium tetraphenylborate as electrolyte. The membrane is located between the flowin...

A highly selective PVC membrane electrode based on a cerium-salen complex was prepared. The sensor displays an anti-Hofmeister selectivity sequence with a preference for iodide ion over many common organic and inorganic anions. The proposed electrode exhibits a near-Nernstian behavior over a wide concentration range (5.0 x 10(-2) - 8.0 x 10(-6) M) with a slope of 57.5 mV per decade, and a detec...
