Abstract :This study describes a multi-ion-selective electrode system for the simultaneous determination of nitrate and chloride ions in air samples by using multivariate calibration methods. The measurement system was constituted of two ion-selective electrodes, an Ag/AgCl double-junction reference electrode and a multi-potentiometer. The measurements were performed at pH 5.0 acetic acid/sodium acetate buffer. The obtained data were evaluated by using Partial Least Squares (PLS1). The system was used to analyze the synthetic samples and fume-hood samples in terms of the amount of chloride and nitrate. The percentage recovery values obtained from fume-hood samples were 93.8% ± 3.8 and 102.4% ± 2.5 for chloride and nitrate, respectively. The presented system could be an easy-to-use approach for monitoring the amount of chloride and nitrate species in the scope of occupational health and safety analysis.Keywords : Multiple ion-selective electrode array, nitrate analysis, chloride analysis, multivariate calibration techniques, chemometrics, air samples
