Design and Development of Iodide Potentio-Selectrode

Iodine is an important component for thyroid hormone that are essential for growth, nervous system and metabolism. Iodine shortage can cause slow functioning of thyroid gland resulting in Struma, a condition of swelling of thyroid gland. Excess iodine results in abnormal heart beats, loss of weight etc. So the iodide selective electrodes play a major role in the field of analytical chemistry. This report aims at developing a solid contact ISE for iodide ion using carbon cloth material as the backbone.
