Nitrate Ion-Selective Electrode

Nitrate Ion-Selective Electrode

Nitrate Ion-Selective Electrode

$299.00

The Nitrate Ion-Selective Electrode (ISE) can be used to measure the concentration of Nitrate (NO3) in aqueous samples.

ORDER CODE: NO3-BTA Categories ,

Nitrate concentration, which can be increased by acidic rainfall, fertilizer runoff from fields, and plant or animal decay or waste, is an important parameter in nearly all water quality studies. Use the Nitrate ISE to determine the concentration of the nitrate ion in a water sample.

The Nitrate ISE has a combination-style, non-refillable, gel-filled electrode. Like all other PVC ISE membranes, the membrane on the ISE has a limited life expectancy. However, the replaceable module of ISE allows you to simply discard the used membrane module, and replace it with a new one.

Note: We recommend that you do not purchase ISE replacement modules too far in advance of their expected time of use as degradation occurs while they are stored on the shelf.

Important: Ion-Selective Electrodes require good chemical technique and careful calibration to obtain accurate results; they are not recommended for middle school or elementary students.
