Standard Electrode Potentials

50.3K
On comparing the reactivity of silver and lead, it is observed that the two ionic species, Ag+ (aq) and Pb2+ (aq), show a difference in their redox reactivity towards copper: the silver ion undergoes spontaneous reduction, while the lead ion does not. This relative redox activity can be easily quantified in electrochemical cells by a property called cell potential. This property is commonly known as cell voltage in electrochemistry, and it is a measure of the energy which accompanies the charge...

 Electrochemical measurements are conducted in an electrochemical cell composed of various components that control and measure the current and potential. One fundamental component is electrodes, conductive materials that enable electron transfer reactions at their surfaces.
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...

Mismatch Repair

Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The Mutator Protein Family Plays a Key Role in DNA Mismatch Repair
The human genome has more than 3 billion base pairs of DNA per cell. Prior to cell division, that vast amount of genetic...

Reference electrodes serve as a stable reference point for potentiometric measurements, while indicator and working electrodes react to variations in the composition of a solution.
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...

Potentiometry: Membrane Electrodes

1.8K
Membrane electrodes, also known as p-ion electrodes, use membranes that selectively interact with free analyte ions, generating a potential difference across the membrane. The resulting membrane potential, known as the asymmetry potential, is not zero even when analyte concentrations on both sides of the membrane are equal. The membrane's response is typically not selective to a single analyte but proportional to the concentration of all ions in the sample solution capable of interacting at...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Electrical Engineering
    • Biophysics

    Background:

    • Electrode impedance mismatch in 4-electrode bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) introduces high-frequency artifacts.

    • To demonstrate the broad applicability of the method across different measurement scenarios.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a 4-electrode BIS setup, performing two measurements with rearranged electrode connections.
    • Applied a simple averaging algorithm to the two sets of distorted impedance data.
    • Validated the correction method using resistor-capacitor (R-C) networks and biological tissue samples (forearm, leg).

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method effectively removed high-frequency capacitive and inductive artifacts.
    • Averaging the two distorted impedance datasets yielded corrected impedance values close to expected.
