✦ Synopsis

Details are given for the construction of a membrane-covered oxygen electrode and the electrode coupling circuit, water-jacketed reaction vessel, and water-driven magnetic stirrer, all of which are incorporated into a compact self-supporting unit.

The complete unit is particularly suited to the undergraduate laboratory in view of its compactness, robustness, and ease of operation. Performance characteristics of the electrode itself equal those of commercially available Clark-type electrodes.
