• Insertion in plant and animal tissue
• Measuring in smallest volume
• Profiling of pH gradients

Needle-type pH Microsensors are the perfect tool for measuring in small volumes and for implementation into a variety of tissues. The protective housing enables a manifold of applications. The design is optimal for easy penetration of tissue, septum rubber or packaging materials. After penetration the sensor tip is extended for measurement.

Implantable probes are the miniaturized pH sensors designed for various customized applications. The tiny probe has a tip size of 150 µm while the outer diameter ranges from 140 µm to 900 µm.

The microsensor tip is not mounted in any additional housing. The bare glass fiber tip can be mounted to your own housings, steel tubes, catheters, etc. As the probe is free of metal, it can be used in the presence of high electromagnetical fields and even NMR environment.

pH Measurement in Plants and Animals

pH Microsensors can be implanted even in small animals. New insigths in the physiological aspects can be obtained. Due to the small size of the probes only a minimal disturbance will occur.

pH Measurement in Small Volumes

Due to the small dimension of the probe, pH measurements can be done in very small volumes - even in microtiter plates of a higher format like 384 or 1536. No need for reference electrodes - a real step forward, especially in small volumes. Of course, the measurement is independent of electromagnetical fields - this even allows measuring in NMR spectrometers.

Customized Microsensors

pH Microsensors can be implemented in a broad variety of customized housings. "Catheder" as well as special cannulas or needles will turn the pH Microsensor in the ideal tool for your special application.
