Abstract

A new versatile mono-fiber optrode based on the combined use of a dual-fiber optrode and a short mono-fiber is proposed. The quantitative analytical possibility of this optrode configuration is tested on benzene/ heptane mixtures with the use of a PLS procedure, and good results are obtained. The new all-purpose mono-fiber optrode is extremely simple and user friendly and can be used for <i>in situ</i> and <i>in vivo</i> detection.
