The easy fabrication and use of nanoscale dual function pH-scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) probes is reported. These probes incorporate an iridium oxide coated carbon electrode for pH measurement and an SICM barrel for distance control, enabling simultaneous pH and topography mapping. These pH-SICM probes were fabricated rapidly from laser pulled theta quartz pipets, with the pH elec...

A plastic membrane electrode for the determination of methacycline hydrochloride was fabricated based on the use of methacycline-tetraphenylborate as the electroactive substance, and dioctylphtalate as the plasticizing agent. It was found that the potential responses of the electrode were influenced by pH of the tested solution when pH>3. Under the condition of pH 2.6, the linear response range...

pH is frequently measured in laboratories, but to have confidence in the results it is necessary to know that it was measured properly. For an electrode to give accurate results it must be treated well and calibrated correctly. In this paper, an automated system for pH measurement is described; the system uses the operational pH scale and calibrates using two or three buffer solutions, taking p...

A rapid electrochemical technique was developed to determine 8-Hydroxyquinoline (8HQ). In the current study, the anionic surfactant Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) was immobilized on the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) paste surface for the fabrication of electrode to detect 8HQ in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) of pH 7.0. The response of SLS modified carbon nanotube paste electrode (SLSMCNTP...

in this research, a pvc membrane electrode for manganese (ii) ions based on n-(2-picolinamidoethyl)picolinamide as neutral carrier was prepared. the electrode exhibits a nemstian responseover mn(ii) concentration range of (1.0 x10-5 t01.0 x 10-1m) with a slope of 29.3±0.5 mv perdecade of concentration with a working ph range of 4.0-9.0. it has a fast response time (

We assessed the magnitude of the errors in ionized-calcium measurements resulting from changes in electrolyte composition for three different ion-selective electrodes: the Orion Model 93-20, the Radiometer F2112, and the Simon neutral carrier membrane electrode. We attempted to distinguish between errors arising from changes in calcium ion activity and those due to interferences in the electrod...

   Significant effects of magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles on the potentiometric behavior of carbon paste electrode for bio determination of Isoniazid aromatic drug (INH) were studied. The electrochemical performance of modified Fe3O4/CPE was investigated. The constructed Fe3O4/CPE showed high precision, sensitivity ...

Water maintains a pH value of 7 owing to a balance between dissociation into hydronium (H3O+) and hydroxide (OH−) ions and their recombination. An examination is made of the effect of applying voltages from 0.1 to 0.82V on these ions between metal electrodes which act as blocking electrodes. The movement of hydronium ions away from and hydroxide ions towards the anode is followed. This movement...
