Strathkelvin - Model SI130 - Microcathode Oxygen Electrodes
From Biomedical Research - Oxygen Electrode & Chambers
This is a Clark-type polarographic electrode, with a 22 micron diameter platinum cathode and silver/silver chloride anode, connected by a buffered potassium chloride electrolyte solution. In the normal configuration the cathode is covered with a relatively low permeability polypropylene membrane, in order for the electrode to be used in unstirred solutions or where minimal stirring is required. With these membranes, there is a relatively slow response time. For fast response, as required for rapidly respiring enzyme preparations, a thin FEP membrane (used with a special electrode jacket, (P/N SI 035) is used. Rapid stirring of the medium is then necessary. The electrodes are not temperature compensated and require to be used at controlled temperatures (within + or -0.05°C). They should always be used in the electrode holder of one of the Strathkelvin accessories, so that only the tip of the electrode is exposed to the medium.
