The pH-ISE(ion selective electrode) based on tribenzylamine as a hydrogen ion carrier was prepared and its electrochemical characterization was studied. It responded linearly to hydrogen ions in the range of pH 3.1 - pH 11.0 and the Nernstian slope showed 55.0 mV/pH (at $20{\pm}0.2^{\circ}C$), it also showed a fast response time of 8 sec. When it was directly applied to human blood(pH 6.0-8.5), we could get the same satisfying results. A good reproducibility and stability were shown with the precision of 2 mV (${\pm}0.1$). The pH-ISE based on tribenzylamine exhibited biocompatibility in clinical applications.

(Bakelite-A)-(2,2'-Bipyridine)-Ni(Ⅱ) Nitrate complexes were tested as ion exchanger for nitrate ion-selective electrode. The experimentally observed selectivity and electrode characteristics were relatively in good agreement with the exchanger lipophilicity in the membrane phase. Based on chemical composition, mechanisms for exchange with nitrate ion and internal electrical conduction were postulated. Analytical application to the determination of nitrate were studied.

A coated wire ion selective electrode for nitrate (nitrate-CWE_ was constructed using epoxy resin, ion exchanger and plasticizer as a polymer membrane. It's stility, the composition of a polymer membrane, the response characteristics, the selectivity were examined and applied to the environmental analysis. The nitrate-CWE was prepared using a copper wire, wihch was coated with epoxy resin being incorporated with the nitrate ion exchanger and plasticizer. The best composition of the polymer membrane for the nitrate-CWE was obtained by mixing epoxy resin, ion exchanger and plasticizer in the ratio of 2:1:0.4. The potential (56.3$\pm$0.5 mV) of stick form nitrate-CWE in this composition was close to that (59.2 mV) of Nernstian response. The detection limit for nitrate ion were found to the about $6 \times 10^{-5}M$ and the useful pH was 2.5 $\sim$ 10.3. Furthermore, the selectivity of iodide and perchrorate for the nitrage-CWE was also much improved compared with that for a liquid membrane nitrate electrode. The nitrate-CWE was used to determind $NO_x$ in stack gas. The results were in good agreement with those obtained either by electrode method or by the improved NEDA method within a relative error of 4.0%.

We fabricated a composite carbon electrode to remove nitrate ions selectively from a mixed solution of anions. The electrode was fabricated by coating the surface of a carbon electrode with the nitrate-selective anion exchange resin (BHP55, Bonlite Co.) powder. We performed capacitive deionization (CDI) experiments on a mixed solution containing chloride, nitrate, and sulfate ions using a BHP55 cell constructed with the fabricated electrode. The removal of nitrate ions in the BHP55 cell was compared to that of a membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) cell constructed with ion exchange membranes. The total quantity of ions adsorbed in BHP55 cell was $38.3meq/m^2$, which is 31% greater than that of MCDI cell. In addition, the number of nitrate adsorption in the BHP55 cell was $15.9meq/m^2$ (42% of total adsorption), 2.1 times greater than the adsorption in the MCDI cell. The results showed that the fabricated composite carbon electrode is very effective in the selective removal of nitrate ions from a mixed solution of anions.

The perchlorate, thiocyanate, and nitrate ion-selective PVC membrance electrode for measuring hazardous anion in waste water were developed by incorporating the quaternary ammonium salts as active material. Ion-selective characteristics in waste water were studied by the useful pH range, the selective coefficients to various interfering anions, and the stability of electrode potential. DBP was best as a plasticizer. The effect of the membrane thickness on the electrode characteristics was improved with decreasing the membrane thickness, but below the optimum membrane thickness the electrode exhibited an inverse trend. The electrode potential of perchlorate, thiocyanate, and nitrate electrode with TDDA, as active material, was stable within the pH range 4-11, 3-12, and 4-10 repectively. And the long-term potential stability of these electrodes were 3.0, 3.5, and 3.5 months respectively. The order of the selectivity coefficients was as shown below ; $ClO_4{^-}$ > $SCN^-$ > $I^-$ > $NO_3{^-}$ > $Br^-$ > $CN^-$ > $F^-$ > $Cl^-$ > $Ac^-$ > $H_2PO_4{^-}$, $SO_4{^-}$.

A new poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane electrode that is highly selective to $Mn^{+2}$ ions was prepared using N,N'-bis(2'-pyridinecarboxamide)-1,2-ethane ($bpenH_2$) as a suitable neutral carrier. This concentration range ($1.0{\times}10^{-5}$ to $1.0{\times}10^{-1}\;M$) with Nernstian slope of $29.3{\pm}0.5\;mV$ per decade. The detection limit and the response time of electrode were $8.0{\times}10^{-6}\;M$ and (${\leq}15\;s$) respectively. The membrane can be used for more than two months without observing any divergence. The electrodes exhibited excellent selectivity for $Mn^{+2}$ ion over other mono-, di- and trivalent cations. Selectivity coefficients were determined by the matched potential method (MPM). The electrode can be used in the pH range from 4.0 - 9.0. The isothermal coefficient of this electrode amounted to 0.00023 V/$^{\circ}C$. The stability constant (log $K_s$) of the $Mn^{+2}$ - $bpenH_2$ complex was determined at $25^{\circ}C$ by potentiometric titration in mixed aqueous solution. The proposed electrode was applied to the determination of $Mn^{+2}$ ions in real samples.

This study was carried out to investigate the applicability of PVC membrane-based ion-selective electrodes for macronutrients (K, Ca, and N) by measuring of potassium, calcium, nitrate ions in hydroponic nutrient solution. The capabilities of two ion-selective membranes with varying chemical compositions for each ion were evaluated in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and lifetime to choose sensing elements suitable for measuring typical ranges of nutrient concentrations in hydroponic solutions. The selected calcium and nitrate ion-selective membranes showed effectively sensitive responses to calcium and nitrate ions with lifetimes of 25 and 15 days, respectively. The addition of a cation additive to the potassium membrane cocktail allowed its sensitivity to be increased whereas its lifetime was reduced from 30 days to 10 days.

PVC membrane electrodes based on the lipophilic neutral carrier, dibenzo-18-crown-6, cyclic oligomers of teit-butylphenol-formaidehyde condensates, calix[4]arenes as the active sensors for verapamil have been prepared and tested in a variety of plasticizers. At pH 5.0, the electrode exhibits a Nernstian response in the range of 10$^{-2}$~5$\times$10$^{-5}$ M verapamil with a slope of 49.1$\pm$0.5mV per concentration decade. The electrode constructed in this work can be used continuously for at least 1 month before any damage to the membrane occurs. And the analyses of the local anesthetic amine, which are good to select a specific compound in a mixed solution, were also accomplished by using of another neutral carrier, a DB18C6, for comparing with calix[4]arene.

A method for determining nitrate in post treatment chromium plating solutions with PVC-based nitrate-selective electrodes is described. PVC-based nitrate-selective membranes which contain TDMANO3 ion-exchanger in PVC/NPOE, PVC/DOA or PVC/DBP matrices, and a commercially available Corning electrode (No. 476134) have been compared in respect of their detection limits, response slopes, selectivities at various pHs, and dynamic response to the hydrochromate ion in basic condition. The PVC/DBP/TDMANO3 membrane electrode was chosen as the ISE detector for the determination of nitrate in the presence of hydrochromate interference. The amount of nitrate in real post treatment chromium plating solution could be determined successfully with this electrode in both static and flow-injection measurements when the sample was properly diluted with an alkaline buffer.

A new solvent polymeric membrane sensor based on tetra(p-chlorophenyl)porphyrinato manganese (III) acetate is described which demonstrates excellent selectivity toward the triiodide ion. The electrode has a linear dynamic range between 1.0 ${\times}$ $10^{-2}$ M and 7.0 ${\times}$$10^{-6}$M with a Nernstian slope of $-59.6{\pm}1$ mV per decade and a detection limit of 5.0 ${\times}$$10^{-6}$M. The proposed sensor revealed good selectivities for triiodide over a wide variety of other anions and could be used in a pH range 2-9. The electrode can be used for at least two months without any considerable divergence in potential. It was applied as indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of the triiodide and As(III) ions.
