Abstract

A new type of flow cell has been developed for detection of heavy metal ions in aqueous solutions, based on the flow injection method. The cell contains two chemically modified field effect transistors (CHEMFETs) of which one is selective for the supporting electrolyte ion (in this case a 0.1 M potassium ion solution) and the other is selective for the heavy metal ion to be detected (Cd2+, Pb2+). The differential signal of the reference electrode CHEMFET and the heavy metal ion CHEMFET in the flow cell system which has been presently developed will be evaluated for miniaturization and further integration in a micro total analysis system.
