Solution equilibria of the thmary systems $UO_2(II)$, La(III), Ce(III)-N-(2-acetamido)-iminodiacetic acid and dicarboxylic amino acids are studied potentiometrically. The formation of 1:1:1 mixed ligand complexes are inferred from the potentiometric titration curves. The formation constants of the different binary and thmary complexes in such system are evaluated at t=$24\pm{0.1}^\circ{C}\;and\;\mu=0.1\;mol\;dm^{-3}(kNO_3)$. It is deduced that the temary complex is more stable than the corresponding binary amino acid anion complex. Moreover, the order og stability of the binary or temary complexes in terms of nature of amino acid and metal ion is investigated and discussed.

An electrochemical generation of ozonized water was investigated by using ${\beta}-PbO_2$ as an anode and tap water as an anolyte. According to the potentiometric ozone detection which utilizes potential differences arisen from a chemical reaction of ozone and iodide, increasing tendency of ozone concentration on electrolysis time could be observed to show the maximum value of 8 ppm at an electrolysis time of 10 min. Ozone could be generated promptly even at an electrolysis time of 10 sec., suggesting great advantages of this electrochemical process in terms of simplicity and readiness that might be applied directly to practical uses including medical and/ or food industries. Influences of electrolysis on the properties and surface conditions of a $PbO_2$ electrode were also discussed from the results of cyclic voltammetry, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray diffractometer.

Poly-o-toluidine (POT) was chemically and electrochemically synthesized for the study of the electronic and steric effect of methyl substituents. It was found that the steric effect was dominant in POT. The IP 4.95 eV, EA 3.24 eV, Eg 1.71 eV of POT were found by the CV (Cyclic Voltammetry) and CCPSA (Constant Current Potentiometric Stripping Analysis).

Acid dissociation constants of 5-acetyl-8-hydroxyquinoline have been determined by spectrophotometric and potentiometric methods at $25^{\circ}C$. $pK_1$, $pK_2$ values obtained by potentiometric method were 4.56, 8.20 respectively and $pK_1$ obtained by spectrophotometric method was 4.21. pK values were lower than those of 8-hydroxyquinoline. The lower basicity of 5-acetyl-8-hydroxyquinoline compared with 8-hydroxyquinoline was considered as the result of the electronic attraction of the acetyl group with aromatic ring.

Plasticized poly(vinyl chloride), PVCs, with different membrane compositions tested for use in the construction of an ion-selective sensor for the determination dibucaine. A prepared membrane with dioctyl phthalate-PVC and ion-pair of N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride-tetraphenyl borate had a good potential to acts as a potentiometric sensor for the analysis of dibucaine. A linear relationship was obtained between potential and logC varying between $1.0{\times}10^{-6}$ and $1.0{\times}10^{-2}$ M dibucaine with a good repeatability and reproducibility. The sensor was applied for the determination of the drug in pharmaceuticals and biological fluids such as plasma and urine samples with satisfactory results. The drug electrode has also been used to study the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with dibucaine. The saturated quantities of dibucaine binding were 13.04, 5.30 and 9.70 mol/mol in 0.01, 0.02 and 0.1% of protein, respectively.

The IEEE 1451.4 standards defines an architectural model for interfacing smart transducers for sensors & actuators. This standard allows analogue transducers to communicate their identification and calibration data in a digital format. A digital format is called the TEDS (transducer electronic data sheet). However, the standard template TEDS of IEEE 1451.4 do not supports sensors to use in electronic tongue system, such as arrayed-potentiometric and voltametric sensors. In this paper, a solution to standardize sensors for E-Tongue (electronic tongue) and electronic tongue systems is presented.

Recently, large scale concrete structures exposed to severe environment are increasingly built in various locations. The corrosion may affect severely the durability and service life of such a concrete structure. It is, therefore, necessary to develop durable concrete to enhance the corrosion resistance. The corrosion resistance of concrete can be identified through accelerated corrosion test. The purpose of the present paper is, therefore, to devise a reasonable and accurate method to predict the amount of corrosion of reinforcing steels. The proposed method which is basically based on the concept of Faraday's Law, determines the corroded amount of a re-bar according to accelerated corrosion time. The corrosion is accelerated by employing the potentiometric corrosion test arrangement. The effects of admixtures in concrete including fly ash and silica fume have been also studied to explore the relative corrosion resistance of concrete.

Immunoassay of botulinum toxin (BTX) B type was investigated using two typed of biosensors: light addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor. Urease-tagged and immuno-filtration capture method have been used for LAPS. Tag-free and direct binding real-time detection method have been used for SPR sensor. The detection limit of sandwich assay format with LAPS was 10 ng/ml, which was the lowest among methods tested. SPR has the advantage of being more convenient because tag-free direct binding assay can be used and reaction time was reduced, regardless of low sensitivity. This result shows that sandwich assay format with LAPS can be used as an alternative method of BTX mouse bioassay which is known as the most sensitive method for the detection of BTX.

Biosorption technology is recognized as an economically feasible alternative for the removal and/or recovery of metal ions from industrial wastewater sources. However, the structure of biosorbents is quite complex when compared with synthetic ion-exchange resins, which makes it difficult to quantify the ion-binding sites. Accordingly, this report describes a well-defined method to characterize the pK values and numbers of biomass functional groups from potentiometric titration data. When the proposed method was applied to Sargassum polycystum biomass as a model biosorbent, it was found that the biomass contained three types of functional groups. In addition, the carboxyl group (pK=$3.7{\pm}0.09$) was found to be the major binding sites ($2.57{\pm}0.06 mmol/g$) for positively-charged heavy-metal ions.
