pH SENSOR FOR INDICATING THE pH OF A SAMPLE AND THE FABRICATION AND USE THEREOF

摘要

A pH sensor for the visual or optical indication of the pH of a sample. The pH sensor includes a hydrophilic, optionally intrinsically charged or neutral, synthetic membrane and at least one pH indicator dye immobilized thereto, so as to prevent appreciated bleeding of the at least one indicator dye from the synthetic membrane upon immersion in an aqueous liquid.
