Advantages and drawbacks of potentiometric chemical sensors ·Advantages 1.A wide range of available sensing materials and sensors. 2.Wide variations of sensor properties, some unique features. 3.A wide knowledge about composition/properties relationship. 4.Simple installation. Easy, direct measurements. 5.Different configuration (static, flow) and size (bulk, micro). 6.Easy applicability for automatic routine analysis. 7.Low cost. ·Drawbacks 1.Insufficient selectivity of many sensors. 2.The number of available sensors is far smaller than the variety of analytes.

  5. Electronic tongue Electronic tongue is an analytical instrument comprising an array of non-specific, poorly selective, chemical sensors with partial specificity (cross-sensitivity) to different components in solution, and an appropriate chemometrics tool (method of pattern recognition and/or multivariate calibration) for the data processing. Of primary importance is stability of sensor behaviour and enhanced cross-sensitivity, which is understood as reproducible response of a sensor to as many species as possible. If properly configured and trained (calibrated), the “electronic tongue" is capable to recognise quantitative and qualitative composition of multicomponent solutions of different nature.
