The Dissolved Oxygen Electrode and Biochemical Enzyme Sensors


There is a longstanding demand for a simple and portable instrument for the detection and measurement
of oxygen dissolved in water. Suitable electrodes have been developed and more recently have been
ingeniously used as the basis for a range of biochemical sensors.


Principles of Dissolved Oxygen Measurement


A typical commercial electrode is based on a galvanic cell comprising a lead
