Aluminum(III) porphyrins are examined as potential fluoride selective ionophores in polymeric membrane type ionselective electrodes. Membranes formulated with Al(III) tetraphenyl (TPP) or octaethyl (OEP) porphyrins are shown to exhibit enhanced potentiometric selectivity for fluoride over more lipophilic anions, including perchlorate and thiocyanate. However, such membrane electrodes display un...

The potentiometric response of electrodes is described, including: (1) Nernstian response to activity change due to an altered concentration of the analyte ion, and (2) Nernstian response to activity change caused by different solvents. In order to ensure the reliability of the data obtained in this study, the following three steps were taken: (i) a comparison of electrode potentials between a ...

A new pyrilamine coated graphite electrode (CGE) based on pyrilamine-tetraphenylborate ion-pair (Pyra-TPB) as electroactive material has been described. The sensor exhibited a linear response with a good Nernstian slope over a relatively wide range of concentration. The membrane film of the electrode made of 3% (w/w) ion-pair, 48.5% DBP (w/w) and 48.5% PVC (w/w). The sensor displays Nernstian r...

An iodide-miconazole ion-paired complex was used as a suitable ion-exchanger for the preparation of a plasticized-PVC membrane electrode. Among different solvent mediators tested, dioctylsebacate exhibited the proper response characteristics, including Nernstian slope of the calibration curve, fast response time and good reproducibility of the emf values. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian slop...

In this research, a coated graphite electrode was constructed for determination of Mg2+ in pharmaceutical supplements. The designed sensor demonstrates an ideal Nernstian slope (30.1 mV. Decade-1) over a wide concentration range (1×10-6- 1×10-1 Mol L-1). The selectivity of the sensor was evaluated over 16 different cations by matched potential method and no serious interference was observed fro...

in this work we introduce a practical use of synthesized schiff base metal complex in sensing application. a new perchlorate-selective electrode based on the complex n, n'-4-nitro-phenylmethanebis-(salicylaldiminato) copper (ii) [cul] as the membrane carrier was developed. the electrode exhibits a good  nernstian slope of -55.0 ± 1.0 mv/decade and a linear range of  for perchlorate. the limit o...

We propose the very first "Nernstian biosupercapacitor", a biodevice based on only one redox polymer: poly(vinyl imidazole-co-allylamine)[Os(bpy)2 Cl], and two biocatalysts. At the bioanode PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase reduces the Os3+ moieties at the polymer to Os2+ shifting the Nernst potential of the Os3+ /Os2+ redox couple to negative values. Concomitantly, at the biocathode the redu...
