DESCRIPTION
The LECTURE PURPOSE: Give an idea of the students about the electrodes, redox potentials and mechanisms of their occurrence. Know that determining the redox potentials for the various biochemical systems can predict the direction of the reaction. Know that in the medical practice, a lot of methods based on the measurement of potentials, and determine the nature of disorders of the heart, brain, muscle redox potentials and in general, the laws of equilibrium processes taking place at the electrodes are of great importance in studying the life of the human.

LECTURE 7. THE ELECTROD AND REDOX POTENTIIALS.
The LECTURE PURPOSE:
Give an idea of the students about the electrodes, redox potentials and mechanisms of their occurrence. Know that determining the redox potentials for the various biochemical systems can predict the direction of the reaction. Know that in the medical practice, a lot of methods based on the measurement of potentials, and determine the nature of disorders of the heart, brain, muscle redox potentials and in general, the laws of equilibrium processes taking place at the electrodes are of great importance in studying the life of the human.
The LECTURE PURPOSE: • To introduce the students with electrode and redox
potentials , and mechanism of their rise. Determined redox potentials for different biochemical systems is possible to predict the direction of reactions. Many processes in organism it is impossible to explain without redox potentials. The total bioelectric potentials of different systems and organs reflect their functional state. In medical practices used many methods, founded on measurement of potentials, and defining nature of the breach of the work of heart, brain of the muscles and others. In this connection future physician must to know, how appear the potentials and how their to measure. In this connection is considered also method of potentiometric titration. Potentiometric determination of pH is the most exact, broadly applicable method for determination of active acidity of the medium, including blood and other biological liquids.

Kinds of potentials1. Diffuse potential - arises at the interface of the two solutions of different concentrations2. Contact potential - there is a border between the two types of metal3. Oxidation-reduction potential - occurs at the boundary inert metal and a solution containing the oxidized and reduced forms of the same substance4. Electrochemical potential - there is at the metal and water or a salt solution of the metal5. Membrane potential - occurs at the boundary of cell membranes

Diffuse potential
Diffuse potential – occurs at the interface between the two solutions of the same material with different concentrations:
The membrane potential
The membrane potential- Occurs from the difference of concentration of ions on either side of a biological membrane.On the border of the outer and inner side of a biological membrane potential difference of 75 mV. Changing this value changes the order of passage of ions through the cell.
The redox potential
The redox potential- occurs at the boundary of an inert metal and a solution containing the oxidized and reduced forms of the same substance : + Pt
