A new Al(III) selective membrane based on 5-bromo(salicylidene-2-amino thiophenol) as a neutral carrier in a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix is coated on platinum wire to determine trace amounts of Al(III) ion in various samples. The sensor exhibits a good response for Al(III) ion over a wide concentration range of 5.20 × 10-7 to 1.00 × 10-2 M  with Nernstian slope of 19...

A new PVC membrane mercury(II) ion electrode based on N,N-dimethylformamide-salicylacylhydrazone (DMFAS) as an ionophore is described, which shows excellent potentiometric response characteristics and displays a linear log[Hg(2+)] versus EMF response over a wide concentration range between 6.2 x 10(-7) and 8.0 x 10(-2) M with a Nerstian slope of 29.6 mV per decade and a detection limit of 5.0 x...

A PVC-based membrane of 12-crown-4 exhibits good response for Zn2+ in a wide concentration range (7.08  10-5-1.00  10-1 M) with a non-nernstian slope of 20.5 mv per decade of concentration of Zn2+. The response time of sensor is <10 s and the membrane can be used for more than 3 months without observing any divergence. In addition, the proposed sensor exhibits very good selectivity for Zn2+ o...

A nitrate-selective electrode based on a recently synthesized bis(2-hydroxyanil)acetylacetone lead(II) complex [(haacac)Pb] has been developed. Among different compositions studied, a membrane containing 30.7% poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), 61.3% dibutyl phthalate (DBP) as a plasticizer, 3% methyltrioctylammonium chloride (MTOAC) as a cationic additive and 5% ionophore (all w/w) exhibited the best...

A poly (vinylchloride) (PVC) membrane electrode selective for prazosinium cation based on prazosinium-phosphotungstate (PZ)(3)PT ion-associate is prepared. The electrode exhibits a linear response with an approximate Nernstian slope over the range of 2.7 x 10(-6)-10(-2) M. Calibration graph slope of the electrode is 58 mV PZ(-1) concentration decade when preconditioned by soaking in distilled w...

A PVC-based membrane electrode for thallium(I) ions based on 1,21,23,25-tetramethyl-2,20: 3,19-dimetheno[H, 2] H, 23H, 25H-bis-[1,3] dioxocino[5,4-i:5',4'-i] benzo [1,2-d: 5.4-d'] bis [1,3] benzodioxocin(II) has been prepared. The electrode displays a linear dynamic range of 1.0 × 10−1-1.0 × 10−5 M, with a Nernstian slope of 59.8 ± 0.2 mV decad−1, and a detection limit 5.0 × 10−6 M. It has a ve...

A flow-injection pulse amperometric method for determining tacrine, based on ion transfer across a plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane, was developed. A four-electrode potentiostat with ohmic drop compensation was used, while a flow-through cell incorporated the four electrodes and the membrane, which contained tetrabutylammonium tetraphenylborate. The influence of the applied poten...

in this work, a novel zr02+ pvc-based membrane sensor based on 4,7,13,16,21,24-hexa oxa-1,10- diazabicyclo[8,8,8]- hexa cosane (hodbhc) as a new ionophore is presented. the sensor displays a linear dynamic rangebetween 1.0x 10-1 and 1.0x10 6 m, with a near nernstian slope of 29.9 ± 0.4 mv per decade in an acidic solution(ph=1). the limit of detection is 8.0 x 1 0 7 m. the electrodes possess adv...

Sulfadiazine is an antibiotic of the sulfonamide group and is used as a veterinary drug in fish farming. Monitoring it in the tanks is fundamental to control the applied doses and avoid environmental dissemination. Pursuing this goal, we included a novel potentiometric design in a flow-injection assembly. The electrode body was a stainless steel needle veterinary syringe of 0.8-mm inner diamete...
