ISE is an electrode consisting of a sensitive and selective membrane for certain

ions. When the selective electrode is immersed in the sample to be analyzed, a

potential is developed across its membrane through a selective and spontaneous
reaction, this is also achieved thanks to the presence of a reference electrode.

The ion-selective electrode technique is based on using electrodes to measure the

concentration of a specific electrolyte. To do this, it measures the potential
difference caused by the contact of the electrode with the ion in question, with
respect to the potential difference in the reference electrode.

Ion-selective electrodes have ion-selective membranes that respond only to contact

with certain ions dissolved in the sample being analyzed. It creates a potential
difference caused by the contact of the electrodes with the ions with respect to
the potential difference in the electrodes. reference.
