Cyanide ion selective electrode (ISE) uses a salt membrane and plexiglass housing to accurately measure cyanide ion concentrations from 10-6 to 10-2 mol/L in aqueous solutions, ideal for environmental monitoring, water treatment, electroplating, and mining applications.
Maintaining an alkaline pH is critical for accurate cyanide measurements. Cyanide ions (CN-) can easily convert to toxic HCN under acidic conditions, which not only leads to measurement errors but also poses safety risks. To prevent this, the sample solution should be kept alkaline, typically above pH 10, using a suitable buffer. Proper pH control ensures that cyanide remains in its ionic form, stabilizing the ion selective electrode response and improving both precision and reproducibility. For best results, always check the pH before measurement and adjust if necessary.
