Automatic Temperature Compensation ATC Adjusts Slope in Relation to Temperature Sounds Good! Does Not Work!
Automatic Temperature Compensation ATC Adjusts Slope in Relation to Temperature Is Accurate OnlyWhen Analysis is Close to Isopotential Point Only For pH
Automatic Temperature Compensation ATC (Except For pH)

Calibration Control . Electrode Potential (mv) Standard Solution Concentration (mg/L) The Calibration Control Adjusts the “Curve” to the Point of Standard Used
Slope Control . Standard Electrode Potential (mv) Concentration (mg/L) The Slope Control Rotates the “Curve” Around the Point Of the First Standard
Slope Control Second Standard . . Standard Electrode Potential (mv) Concentration (mg/L) The Slope Control Adjust the “Curve” through the Point of the Second Standard Used
NERNST EQUATION Log C1 E1 = Eo + s Log C2 E2 = Eo + s Log 10C1 E2 = Eo + s If C2 = 10 x C1 Then:
NERNST EQUATION Log C1 E1 = Eo + s Log C2 E2 = Eo + s If C2 = 10 x C1 E2 - E1 = s The Slope of an Electrode is the millivolt Change that is seen for a Ten Times Change in Concentration.
ISE Checking Electrode Slope Carefully Prepare Two Standards 10 X Concentration Difference Set Meter to Read in millivolts (or Relative mv) Record mv Reading for Each Standard = Slope Determine Difference
T Log C E = Eo + 2.3 n Electrode Potential (mv) Concentration (mg/L) ISE Checking Electrode Slope
T Log C E = Eo + 2.3 n ISE Checking Electrode Slope The Slope Value Determined is Affected By: Temperature (T) Charge on the Ion of Interest (n) Positive or Negative 1, 2, etc.
T Log C E = Eo + 2.3 n ISE Checking Electrode Slope The Slope Value Determined is Affected By: Temperature (T) Charge on the Ion of Interest (n) Quality of the Standards Efficiency of the Electrode
ISE Checking Electrode Slope The Slope of the Electrode Will Change {Loss of Efficiency} The Slope Should be Checked Regularly to Assure Reliable Results Most Meters Give Slope When Calibrating ( In mv or %) Record Slope for QA/QC Daily (or at least every two weeks)
ISE Checking Electrode Slope Ideal Slope Depends on Ion of interest (n) Charge on the Ion of Interest (+ or -) Approximately 59 mv for n=1 or 29 mv for n=2 Check Manufacturer for Acceptable Slope Range Usually ± 10 % of Ideal
ISE Checking Electrode Slope If Determined Slope is Outside of Acceptable Range May Be Due To: Poor Quality of Standards Improper Probe Maintenance Faulty Electrode The Slope Should be Checked Regularly to Assure Reliable Results
