S
39、ince no electrode is truly specific for one ion, the termion-selective is recommended as more appropriate. Selective ion-sensitive electrode is a little-used term to describe an ion-selectiveelectrode. IUPACionic strengththe weighted concentration of ions in solu-tion, computed by multiplying the co

The practical limit of detection maybe taken as the activity (or concentration) of A at the point ofintersection of the extrapolated linear segments of the calibra-tion curve, as shown in Fig. 2.
