Abstract
In order to provide a properly functioning polarographic oxygen sensor (POS), the electrolyte must be compatible with the oxidation and reduction mechanisms at the electrodes. Furthermore, it should provide a conductive path for the transport of ionic species between the electrodes. In the design of a POS, the choice of the electrolyte is of the utmost importance.
