Abstract: | Summary The influence of quaternary ammonium chlorides on potassium ion-selective electrodes is described. The observed decrease of sensitivity towards potassium ions, up to quasi-Nernstian towards chloride ions in the extreme case, is explained by ion-partition and ion-exchange processes at the membrane surface. A scheme of interference pathways is presented and a possibility of eliminating undesirable influences is given.Dedicated to Professor Dr. Wilhelm Fresenius on the occasion of his 80th birthday |
