A sensitive novel approach of using an amperometric ion detector for the flow injection analysis of salts has been developed. The detection methodology is based on measuring the current associated with the transfer of ions across polarized microinterfaces between the aqueous sample solution and a 2-nitrophenyloctyl ether-poly(vinyl chloride) gel phase, referred to as ionodes. Different sodium salts of fluoride, chloride, bromide, nitrate, and sulfate were investigated. It was found that by employing an amperometric pulse detection mode and pure water as eluent, the detection limit of the ionode detector could be lowered to ppt level of salt concentrations under flowing conditions.
