A method for the determination of potentiometric selectivity coefficients of ion selective electrodes in the presence of several interfering ions.
In this work a new method is reported for the determination of potentiometric selectivity coefficients of ion-selective electrode in which, similar to real samples, several interfering ions are simultaneously present in test solutions and where the electrode shows its practical behavior. In order to illustrate this method, the potentiometric selectivity coefficients of a commercial liquid membrane ammonium selective electrode is determined for biologically important interfering ions: Li(+), Na(+) and K(+).
