    MiPNet15.03 O2k-MultiSensor-ISE 1. Introduction and scope The pX channel of the Oroboros O2k yields a record of a potentiometric (voltage) signal simultaneously with the oxygen signal in both O2k- chambers. O2k-TPP ISE- Module consists of two ion-selective electrodes (ISE) separate reference electrodes.

  • Page 8: Wash The Ise

    A very effective cleaning procedure is immersion of the electrode in a solution of living or dead cells (surplus from cell cultures) or tissue homogenates in the O2k- chamber. If necessary, this should be performed after rinsing with (1) water, (2) ethanol, and (3) water.

    MultiSensor experiments. 4.4.1. Dithionite background Because of difficulties involved in opening and closing the O2k-Chamber with an ISE-MultiSensor Stopper, it is strongly recommended to use the instrumental background procedure based on dithionite injections (MiPNet14.06) to avoid repeated opening and closing of the O2k-Chamber.

    100 mM KCl solution. The calibration runs should be performed right before a biological experiment using experimental medium. In the case of a TPP electrode being used to determine membrane potential, ideally the biological sample is injected into the O2k-chamber directly after TPP calibration. typical ISE-calibration...
