The tea samples were prepared for the analyses. .
The 1 g of tea was weighed and
added100 ml of boiling distilled water. The whole procedure is performed at
room temperature. A Standard Reference Material was
analyzed for content.
The fluoride contents for continuous infusions were 55-90% and
for repeated infusions were 74-100%.
The
author successfully applied this electrode for determination of fluoride

Ion-Selective Microelectrodes used for
estimation of net fluxes of ammonium and nitrate at the surface of Barley
roots.
Electro-
analytical technique
Ammonium and nitrate selective
microelectrodes.
Barley seeds
NH4+ and N03-
ions
Plants were taken into the experimental chamber at
approximately 21:30 hour on the evening before the experiment. NH4+
or NO3-selective microelectrodes were synthesized in groups of eight the evening before an
experiment. The MFET method is used in this experiment.
The NH4+ axial scans show a slight decline in net NH4+
flux with distance from the root apex and net fluxes of NO3- tend
to be low near the root apex.
With the use of electrodes and MFET we
have been able to observe net fluxes of NH4+ and NO3-
along the root axis of barley with a
high degree of spatial resolution.

polyvinylchloride-membrane based anion
selective electrode used for
continuous registration of pH with salicylate as the indicator probe.
Electro-
analytical technique
Salicylate sensitive ISE
Rhodo- pseudomonas sphaeroides specie
Salicylate ion
R. sphaeroides strain was grown anaerobically at high light
intensity in at 30°C. Cells were harvested
and washed seven times at room temperature in a standard buffer. The
standard buffer was pH 7.0.A PVC membrane was prepared which is sensitive to
anion. Measurements of pH were performed relative to a standard calomel
electrode.
The anion electrode responds to
salicylate concentration
above 400 micro meter with a Nernstian
sensitivity. Below 400the response
decreases so that the
sensitivity of the electrode is less than 10 mV per decade change at conc. of
the anion of 50 micro M.
The salicylate-sensitive ion-selective
electrode can conveniently be used for
pH measurements.

ion selective electrode used for estimation
of calcium in apple fruit and binding of calcium by cell wall

Ca ion selective electrode.
Malus domestica (Apple fruit juice)
Calcium ion
Apple fruit were stored at 2°C until analyzed. Radial segments were
formed. Six 10 g aliquots were weighed from the suspension was diluted with 10 ml water and 0.05 ml
100 mM calcium chloride standard was added. The apple samples were held with
gentle agitation for 30 min at room temperature. Samples were analyzed for
calcium by atomic absorption.
A fraction of 10 to 20% of the total
calcium in apple was detected by the ion selective electrode, when calibrated
with a series of pure calcium chloride standards.
The Ca ISE used successfully for the
binding of calcium to apple cell walls and its estimation.

Development, Characterization, and
Application of a Cadmium-Selective microelectrode for the estimation of Cadmium Fluxes in Roots of Thlaspi
Species and Wheat.
Electroanalytical technique
Cadmium- ion Selective Microelectrode
Thlaspi
Species and Wheat.
Cadmium ions
The capacity of the Cd+2 electrode to behave against
other ions was evaluated using two methods. The first method involved evaluating the electrode’s
performance in the absence of Cd+2. The second approach used MPM
which is the method of choice for calculating selectivity coefficients when
the electrode does not exhibit a Nernstian response to changes in interfering
ion activity.
. The electrode was selected for selectivity and was shown to be at
least 1000 times more selective for Cd+2 than for any of other
potentially interfering ions. The ratio between the experimental and the
theoretical slopes yielded a 55% efficiency for the vibrating Cd+2
microelectrode system..
The Cd+2-selective
microelectrode will permit detailed investigations of heavy-metal ion
transport in plant roots.
