Sodium Potassium Analyser * The electrolyte analyser is a device for measuring the electrolytes in the human body. They are primarily used in the quantitative measurement of sodium, potassium, and chloride in whole blood, serum, or plasma. ... Some electrolyte analysers employ miniaturized ISE, which are fabricated in planar type Sodium Potassium Analyser * Principle: The electrolyte analyzer has different electrodes, specific for different ions of interest. ... A difference in sodium ion concentration between the sodium solution inside the electrode and the sample causes an electrochemical potential to form across the membrane of the active electrode.ODIUM POTASSIUM ANALYSERS The electrolyte analyzer is a device for measuring the electrolytes in the human body. They are primarily used in the quantitative measurement of sodium, potassium, and chloride in whole blood, serum, or plasma. The most common methods of electrolyte analysis are the flame emission photometry and ion-selective electrode (ISE). The ISE method of electrolyte measurement is based on the principle of potentiometry in which the valtage that develops between the inner and outer surfaces of an ISE (membrane) is measured. Some electrolyte analysers employ miniaturized ISE, which are fabricated in planar type. The optode technology does not use electrodes or contact points, which eliminates the need for costly electrode maintenance. Electrolyte analysers find applications for measurement of electrolyte levels in the human body to detect metabolic imbalances and measure renal and cardiac functions.iy a 1-what analyte you want to measure ?

Group 1 and Group 2 metals are quite sensitive to Flame Photometry due to their low excitation energies working The principle of flame photometer is based on the measurement of the emitted light intensity when a metal is introduced into the flame. The wavelength of the colour gives information about the element and the colour of the flame gives information about the amount of the element present in the sample. applications Flame photometer applications. Determining the concentration of sodium and potassium ions in infusion solutions, such as NaCl solution, Ringer solution or others. Product control and indirect quality testing of various substances over sodium, potassium or lithium. Concentration determination in pharmaceutical reagents
