Silver silver chloride reference electrode The wire is silver and it is coated with a material called silver chloride also. The silver wire is for conductivity while the Sioux or Silver Chloride coating helps with the measurements we take. This makes these electrodes very convenient for researchers.
Calibration: Dip your electrode in another calibration solution to test. Then you should control the electrode and read its reading. You have to reference this reading with the established value of the test solution to know whether it is true or not. Now this is a very crucial step as it will make sure that the data used stays true.
Example: Contamination : what is the area where you will put the electrode (this area must be very dirty) If it's dirty, you may want to go with an electrode that has additional protection, such as a sheath, if the electrode is particularly vulnerable to contamination.
Temperature: one detail you need to know is the temperature range capability of the electrode_RUNNING TEMP Various evidences can be done at a range of temperatures, hence select an useful for which the electrode appear likely to manage the conditions.
Solution: Lastly, you need to note the type of electrolyte in the solution. If your solution is acidic or basic, you want to pick an electrode that works best in those kinds of environments. This is crucial when it comes to delivering optimal outcomes.
No Such Potential Over Time: A problem that we may possibly foresee in the future is a decline in potential over time. This may occur when the electrode has become dirty or contaminated. Solution: To troubleshoot this issue, consider cleaning and re-polishing the electrode. This will probably fix the issue and allow your caliper to measure properly again.
Inconsistent Readings: You may also find that your blood sugar readings change regularly. If the results continued to fluctuate, then either connection issues or a damaged electrode would be at fault. If there is an issue with this network, please ensure all the connections are properly fitted. If the electrode is still not functioning properly, it may need to be replaced.
