Sažetak
Instrumental approaches to remotely and wirelessly monitoring chemical species are increasingly needed. Together with the electronic developments, efforts to optimize and validate the performance of these new devices are required. In this work, the analytical performance of a recently developed potentiometer-radiofrequency tag connected to ion- selective electrodes is evaluated. This credit card sized and extremely low power consumption device yield results that are comparable to those obtained with more sophisticated, lab-based tools. Advantages such as portability and autonomy, together with unique features, such as the ability to be read through the walls in a closed vessel are demonstrated. Future perspectives opened by this new generation of devices, such as their use in wearable devices and in decentralized settings are discussed.
