Title: Highly selective PVC-membrane electrodes based on Co(II)-Salen for determination of nitrite ion. Author: Ganjali MR, Rezapour M, Pourjavid MR, Salavati-Niasari M. Journal: Anal Sci; 2003 Aug; 19(8):1127-31. PubMed ID: 12945664. Abstract: A cobalt(II) derivative was used as a suitable ionophore for the preparation of a polymeric membrane nitrite-selective electrode. The electrode reveals a Nemstian behavior over a very wide NO2- ion concentration range (1.0 x 10(-6)-1.0 x 10(-1) M) and a very low detection limit (5.0 x 10(-7) M). The potentiometric response is independent of the pH of solution in the pH range 4.0-9.5. The electrode shows advantages such as low resistance, fast response and, most importantly, good selectivity relative to a wide variety of inorganic and organic anions. In fact, the selectivity behavior of the proposed NO2- ion-selective electrode shows great improvements compared to the previously reported electrodes for nitrite ion. The proposed electrodes could be used for at least 2 months without any significant changes in potentials. The electrode was successfully applied to the determination of nitrate ion concentrations in sausage and milk samples.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
