Sample

Look for possible interferences, complexing agents, or substances which could affect the response or
physically damage the sensing electrode (or the reference electrode) if the electrodes work perfectly in
the standard, but not in the sample.

Try to determine the composition of the samples prior to testing to eliminate a problem before it starts.
(See

Measuring Hints, Sample Requirements,

and

Interferences

.)

Technique

Be sure that the electrode's limit of detection has not been exceeded. Be sure that the analysis method
is clearly understood and is compatible with the sample. Refer to the instruction manual again. Reread

GENERAL PREPARATION

and

ELECTRODE CHARACTERISTICS.
