Abstract: Anew PVCmatrix membrane double-barreled calcium ion-selective microelectrode based on liquid ion exchanger has been designed and constructed.The tip diameter of about 2.5μm as well as lower selectivity coefficients for K+,Na+ and Mg2+ are adequate for in-tracellular measurements of Ca+ activities.The inner wall of the selective channel was made to be hydrophobic by treatment withalkyl-alcohols.By means of this microelectrode some physiologicalphenomena related to Ca2+ activities have been studied,and Caconcentrations in clinical microsamples have also been determined.
