The ADEPT Automates Potentiometric Measurements Using a Microfluidic card connected to an Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) Sensor Array
We combined a low noise multichannel electrometer with the ADEPT pneumatic control instrument for sequential testing of an ISE sensor array to measure Na+, K+, and pH using an external reference. The test system includes an 8-channel ADEPT instrument with the electrometer housed in a shielded box. A slide in port for the microfluidic test card reduce ambient noise and the automated routine for delivering three different analyte solutions of Na+, K+, and pH, provided a controlled environment for the ISE measurements.
