Ion-Selective Electrodes (ISE) in Aquaculture, Agriculture, & Hydroponics

ISE in Aquaculture, Agriculture, & Hydroponics

Controlling and monitoring appropriate levels of various ions plays an essential role in maintaining the health of biological environments. This is why AlpHa’s Ion-Selective Electrodes are capable of measuring a range of ions that are crucial in aquaculture, agriculture, & hydroponics, with some examples as follows:

  • Nitrate, ammonium, and ammonia levels are key indicators of the nitrogen cycle in fish farms and aquariums
  • Proper calcium levels ensure a healthy coral ecosystem
  • Potassium, nitrate, and sodium testing in soils identify potential nutrient deficiencies
  • Monitoring calcium, potassium, and nitrate to identify strategies to improve crop nutrition
