Laboratory Practice - Determination of chloride in synthetic sweat

 These practical kits allow students with or without electrochemical experience to complement their academicprograms by an inquiry-based learning on research experiences. They are also useful for those researchers that are starting in the biosensing field.The determination of chloride in synthetic sweat plays a key role in the early diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) in people of all ages. People with CF have a high level of chloride in sweat. In voltametric sensors the analytical signal usually employed is the peakcurrent generated when a suitable potential window is scanned. This peak current is related to the concentration of the analyte. The main objectives of this didactic laboratory kit are the establishment of a calibration curve to study the accuracy of the procedure for the determination of chloride in synthetic sweat sample.The kit contains:The professor outline; The student outline; A box of suitable screen-printed electrodes (50 units); Solid NaCl (300 mg); Sinthetic sweat (3 solutions with different concentrations);
