Fig. 3From: A new strategy for the determination of the antidiabetics alogliptin, saxagliptin and vildagliptin using all-solid state potentiometric sensorsSchematic representing the replacement of K+ with the drug cation (D+) from the solution and formation of D-TCPB ion exchanger in the membrane phase. D+ stands here for ALO+, SAX+ and VIL+. When the membrane comes in contact with the drug solution an ion exchange process is established between D+ in the membrane and that in the solution, and D+ becomes potential determining ionBack to article page
