Instrument: pH Sensor

Instrument Short Name: pH Sensor
Instrument Description:

An instrument that measures the hydrogen ion activity in solutions.

The overall concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH.  The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 and indicates whether acidic (more H+) or basic (less H+). 

PI supplied instrument name: Orion 5 STAR pH meter
Dataset-specific description

Thermo Fisher Scientific. With a combined glass electrode. The metre was calibrated with National Bureau of Standards buffer solutions of pH 4, 7 and 10.
