Modular biological fluid analyzer

An electrode assembly comprising an organic plastic sample flow-through tube, a portion of the wall of which comprises a membrane, the membrane comprising a matrix of an organic plastic material containing a non-volatile solvent-plasticizer and an ion exchange material dissolved in the solvent plasticizer, the membrane chemically bonded to and integral with said tube. The method of forming the membrane to the tube comprises dissolving the matrix material, the ion exchange material and the non-volatile solvent plasticizer in a volatile solvent, placing the resulting solution on a surface and evaporating the volatile solvent to form the membrane, contacting an edge of the tube to the membrane material, contacting the tube edge with said volatile solvent and allowing the solvent to evaporate.

Liquid membrane electrode

An electrode arrangement for the detection of species ionized by radiant energy from a radiation source, comprising: an annular cathode; a shield, opaque to the radiant energy, extending across the cathode and having an aperture smaller than and coaxial with the annulus formed by the cathode; and an elongated anode having its distal end coaxially of the cathode and the shield aperture, the cathode being shielded from and the anode being exposed to the radiant energy from the radiation source.
