Polymeric membrane ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) have become attractive tools for trace-level environmental and biological measurements. However, applications of such ISEs are often limited to measurements with low levels of electrolyte background. This paper describes an asymmetric membrane rotating ISE configuration for trace-level potentiometric detection with a high-interfering background. The membrane electrode is conditioned in a solution of interfering ions (e.g., Na+) so that no primary ions exist in the ISE membrane, thus avoiding the ion-exchange effect induced by high levels of interfering ones in the sample. When the electrode is in contact with the primary ions, the interfering ions in the membrane surface can be partially displaced by the primary ions due to the favorable ion ligand interaction with the ionophore in the membrane, thus causing a steady-state potential response. By using the asymmetric membrane with an ion exchanger loaded on the membrane surface, the diffusion of the primary ions from the organic boundary layer into the bulk of the membrane can be effectively blocked; on the other hand, rotation of the membrane electrode dramatically reduces the diffusion layer thickness of the aqueous phase and significantly promotes the mass transfer of the primary ions to the sample membrane interface. The induced accumulation of the primary ions in the membrane boundary layer largely enhances the nonequilibrium potential response. By using copper as a model, the new concept offers a subnanomolar detection limit for potentiometric measurements of heavy metals with a high electrolyte background of 0.5 M NaCl.
