Abstract:
Several liquid membrane microelectrodes sensitive to bile acids (two barrel, tip diameter about 0.5 micron) are described. The results of different liquid ion exchangers such as Aliquat 336/decanol, trioctylmethylammonium/decanol, hexadecyltrimethylammonium/decanol, benzyldimethylhexadecylammonium/decanol, hexadecyltributylammonium/5% hexachlorobenzene + 0.5% bromoacetanilide in o-dichlorobenzene are compared with each other, and the better one among them is the mixture of benzyldimethylhexadecylammonium cholate/decanol with hexadecyltributylammonium taurocholate/5% hexachlorobenzene + 0.5% bromoacetanilide in o-dichlorobenzene because of its quicker response time and low drift. The calibration curves, slopes, test limits, selective coefficients, drifts, and response times of the various bile-acids-sensitive microelectrodes in different calibration solutions were demonstrated and compared with each other.

Electrodes: Overview
There are two main types of electrodes in electrochemical cells. The first type, known as the working or indicator electrode, has a potential that is sensitive to the analyte's concentration and reacts to changes in the...

The Standard Hydrogen Electrode (SHE) is a widely used reference electrode that maintains zero potential across all temperatures. However, its need for a continuous hydrogen gas supply renders it impractical for everyday use.
An alternative to SHE is the Saturated Calomel Electrode (SCE). This electrode features an...
