Abstract

A calibration electrode for calibrating a reference system of an electrochemical sensor, such as a potentiometric sensor or an ion selective electrode. The calibration electrode has an active surface comprising redox functionalities. The redox functionalities set the pH of a reference solution proximal to the calibration electrode. A voltammetric signal is applied to the calibration electrode to produce a response that is determined by the set pH. The response of the calibration electrode to the voltammetric signal is used to calibrate/adjust a reference potential produced by a reference electrode of the reference system of the electrochemical sensor. This calibration corrects the detrimental effect of reference electrode drift.
