Abstract
An iridium-iridium oxide electrode for in vivo monitoring of blood pH changes is described. Because of its small size, sensitivity, flexibility, strength and fast response, this electrode is suitable for acute implantation even in the small vessels of animals such as rats or guinea pigs, allowing continuous pH monitoring anywhere in the central arteries or veins. Excellent noise-free records have been obtained in the in vivo experiments in animals.
