Eutech Total Ionic Strength Adjuster Buffer (TISAB 1), Code No. EC-ISA-FL1-BT.  
TISAB 1 is used to adjust the pH of the solution, de-complex fluoride and provide a 
constant background ionic strength. To prepare this solution from your own laboratory 
stock, half fill a four liter beaker with distilled water. Place the beaker on a magnetic 
stirrer, add a large stirring bar, and begin stirring. Slowly add 230 ml of concentrated 
acetic acid, 232 grams of reagent-grade sodium chloride, and 16 grams of reagent-grade 
CDTA. After the solids have dissolved, allow the solution to cool to room temperature.  
Slowly add 150 grams of reagent-grade sodium hydroxide. After the solids have dissolved, 
allow the solution to cool to room temperature. Calibrate a pH electrode and adjust the pH 
to 5.25 with small addition of 5 M NaOH. Fill to the mark with distilled water. 
 
6. 
Eutech Low Level Total Ionic Strength Adjuster Buffer (TISAB 2), Code No. EC-ISA-
FL2-BT. Use when measuring in samples containing less than 2X10
-5
M (0.4 ppm) fluoride 
and containing no fluoride complexing agents. To prepare this solution from your own 
laboratory stock, place about 2'000 ml distilled water in a four liter beaker.  Add 57 ml 
glacial acetic acid and 58 grams sodium chloride. Place the beaker on a magnetic stirrer, 
add a stirring bar and begin stirring. Immerse a calibrated pH electrode into the solution. 
Slowly add  5 M NaOH until the pH is 5.25. Allow the solution to cool and fill to the mark 
with distilled water. 
 
 
GENERAL PREPARATION 
 
Electrode Preparation 
 
Remove the rubber caps covering the electrode tips and the rubber insert covering the filling hole of 
the reference electrode. Fill the combination electrode or the reference electrode with the filling 
solution shipped with the electrode to a level just below the fill hole. No preparation is required 
with a sealed reference electrode. Connect the electrodes to the proper terminals of the meter as 
recommended by the meter manufacturer. 
 
Electrode Slope Check (with pH/mV meter) 
(Check electrodes each day) 
 
1. 
To a 150 ml plastic beaker, add 50 ml of distilled water and 50 ml of TISAB. Place the 
beaker on a magnetic stirrer and begin stirring at a constant rate. After assuring that the 
meter is in the millivolt mode, lower the electrode tips into the solution. 
 
2. 
Using a pipet, add 1 ml of 0.1M, 1,000 ppm, or 100 ppm fluoride standard to the beaker. 
When the reading has stabilized, record the mV reading. 
 
3. 
Using a pipet, add 10 ml of the same fluoride standard used above to the beaker.  When the 
reading has stabilized, record the mV reading.  
 
4. 
Determine the difference between the two readings. The electrode is operating correctly if 
the millivolt potential has changed by 57±2 mV, assuming the solution temperature is 
between 20o and 25oC. See the 
TROUBLESHOOTING
 section if the potential change is not 
within this range.
