Uses for monitoring potassium ions

Potassium is an important electrolyte that is part of many foods. It is also an essential element for plant growth. Potassium ion selective electrodes are commonly used to take readings in the field, in lakes or streams.

The following are applications for Potassium ISE:

Wastewater (environmental monitoring)
Food quality control
Soil analysis (to assess nutrient concentrations in soil)
Plant sap analysis (to assess fertilizer application efficiency and crop nutrition)
Food analysis (fish, meat, vegetables)
Saliva analysis
