Ion selective electrode Created 2025-01-28 Updated 2025-07-16
An ion selective electrode is tool used in analytical chemistry used to determine the concentration of a given ion in a solution.
The method can determine the concentration of one ion even if there are multiple different types of ion in the solution, although in some cases this can alter the results. This is done with the help of a selective membrane that only allows certain ions through.
One cool example application mentioned on LibreTexts[ref] is the measurement of fluorine concentration in water. They explain that fluorine is added to the drinking water supply in some countries to help protect people's teeth, and so you want to be able to measure as part of quality control to make sure it is being added in correct the quantities.
The method requires calibrating with calibrating solutions which takes one hour, but once you are calibrated you just stick the sensor into the analyte and get readings in a minute without any expendables. The membrane seems to be a bit fragile which requires care, but overall it looks like a convenient method.

Max Delbrück is quoted as saying:Nice way to put it.
When Thomas F. Anderson had started taking and publishing the first phage electron microscope images:
Now, Anderson later wrote, "We could really see the phage as tadpole shaped particles, whose heads ranged from 600 to 800 A [...] Anderson wrote. "I remember particularly the reaction of Alfred Hershey's teacher, kindly old Professor J. J. Bronfenbrenner, who had worked on bacteriophages for many years at Washington University in St. Louis. ... When he first saw our pictures ... he clapped the palm of his hand to his forehead and exclaimed, 'Mein Gott! They've got tails!'"
Nice quote from Pauling's Nobel Prize speech highlighting the power and required accuracy of chemical ball and stick models:
The requirements are stringent ones. [...]. In order that the principles of modem structural chemistry may be applied with the power that their reliability justifies, molecular models must be constructed with great accuracy. For example, molecular models on the scale of 2.5 cm 1 angstrom unit, have to be made with a precision better than 0.01 cm.
