Hypothesis

This paper reports an automatic method for the measurement of ionic concentrations using ion-selective electrodes (ISEs).

Conclusion

The technique described in this paper is an efficient and reliable method for measuring concentration changes with ISEs.

Supporting Evidence

  • The method has been used to study continuous concentration changes in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide.
  • The incorporation of a sample changer with measuring cell allows the periodic calibration of ISEs.

Takeaway

The study shows how a computer system can automatically measure the concentration of ions in a solution, making it easier and more accurate.

Methodology

An integrated computer system with an ionanalyzer and a PC was used to automate concentration measurements with ion-selective electrodes.
