Product description
Ion-selective electrode for nitrate
The solid-state ion selective electrode has the advantages of being robust and miniaturized.
The nitrate ion selective electrode is composed of a mini nitrate ion selective electrode and a single ion probe that acts as an ISE holder.
The mini nitrate ISE can be exchanged for a new nitrate sensor tip or any other sensor tip available in our catalog.
The sensitivity and selectivity of the NT Sensors solid state ISEs is the same as for other ion selective electrodes.
The life expectancy of Nitrate ISE is 6 months, even if stored on a shelf or installed in a probe.
Different sensors differ by several months under the same conditions.
Recommended for use with any ion or mV meter and a reference electrode. Nitrate ions are charged particles of nitrogen and oxygen atoms that are highly reactive in nature and form a number of useful compounds.
In soils, nitrates are important plant nutrients that help promote plant growth.
Nitrates also act as electron acceptors during the respiration process, allowing fats and proteins to be broken down into usable energy for the cell.
Nitrate ions can be found in fertilizers, fertilized soil, sewage, animal waste, runoff from agricultural areas, and polluted rivers or streams.
