Électrode ou «capteur électrochimique» dont le potentiel est lié linéairement au logarithme de l'activité d'un ion donné présent en solution. De tels dispositifs se distinguent des électrodes qui mettent en jeu des réactions d'oxydoréduction (électrode de classes I ou II). 1, record 1, French, - %C3%A9lectrode%20%C3%A0%20membrane%20s%C3%A9lective

L'expression «électrode spécifique» n'est pas recommandée. «Spécifique implique que l'électrode ne réponde pas aux autres ions. Compte tenu du fait qu'aucune électrode n'est réellement spécifique, le terme «sélectif» semble plus approprié. 1, record 1, French, - %C3%A9lectrode%20%C3%A0%20membrane%20s%C3%A9lective
