TY - JOUR T1 - Preliminary Studies with Coated-Wire Electrodes for Malate, Lactate and Tartrate Ions in Model Solutions JF - American Journal of Enology and Viticulture JO - Am J Enol Vitic. SP - 289 LP - 291 DO - 10.5344/ajev.1978.29.4.289 VL - 29 IS - 4 AU - Roger Boulton Y1 - 1978/01/01 UR - http://www.ajevonline.org/content/29/4/289.abstract N2 - Electrodes of the coated-wire type were constructed for tartrate, malate and lactate ions. The responses of these unique electrodes in model solutions were determined. Their responses are not Nernstian and the mechanism of electric potential production is not completely understood. However, they offer a new approach to the analyses related to bitartrate precipitation and the malo-lactic fermentation in wines. ER -
