General description

Visit our Sensor Applications portal to learn more.

Application

Selected application examples
Calcium ionophore IV (ETH 5234) was used in preparing membrane for the pseudoreference electrode in tetrahydrofuran, in a study to demonstrate electrochemical sample matrix elimination for trace level potentiometric detection.
Calcium ionophore IV may be used in the preparation of Ca2+-selective membrane utilizing AlGaN/GaN transistors for potentiometric calcium ion detection.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

Extremely lipophilic Ca2+-selective ionophore for chemical sensors of long lifetime; it induces selectivities for Ca over Mg, Na and K of 104, 106, and 108, respectively.

Potentiometric sensors are today sufficiently well understood and optimized to reach ultratrace level (subnanomolar) detection limits for numerous ions. In many cases of practical relevance, however, a high electrolyte background hampers the attainable detection limits. A particularly difficult sample matrix

We demonstrate highly selective and sensitive potentiometric ion sensors for calcium ion detection, operated without the use of a reference electrode. The sensors consist of AlGaN/GaN heterostructure-based transistor devices with chemical functionalisation of the gate area using poly (vinylchloride)-based (PVC)

A novel magnesium-selective ion-channel mimetic sensor based on a well-known calcium ionophore, ETH 5234, was demonstrated. Due to different stoichiometry of the ionophore with Mg(2+) and Ca(2+), the sensor exhibits high selectivity to Mg(2+) by controlling ionophore concentration on the
