Ion Selective Electrodes

Ion Selective Electrode

An Ion-selective electrode (ISE) is a transducer (sensor) which converts the activity of a specific ion dissolved in a solution into an electrical potential which can be measured by a voltmeter or pH meter. The voltage is theoretically dependent on the logarithm of the ionic activity, according to the Nernst equation.

Three anion electrodes are available for analysis, Cl, Br and I.
