A method for the determination of anionic drug, mefenamate with ion-selective electrode using Fe(II)-1,10-phenanthroline chelate as a counter ion was developed. Benzyl nitrophenyl ether (BNPE) plasticized membrane was more selective and sensitive than the other tested membranes. This membrane electrode exhibits a linear response for 10$^{-2}$ M~5 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ M of mefenamic acid with a slope of -61.4 mV/dec. in borate buffer solutions (pH 9.0). Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from various organic and ionorganic anions. Direct potentiometry and potentiometric titration method of mefenamic acid in capsule preparations are presented and compared.

A PVC membrane electrodes based on Fe(II)-dipyridyl-mefenamic acid ternary complex as ion exchanger were prepared using o-nitrophenyl octyl ether as a plasticizer. The 2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,4'-dipyridyl and 4,4'-dipyridyl-2,2'-dipyridyl were used as dipyridyl derivative ligand. The electrode dxhibits a fast stable and linear response for $10^{-5}-10^{-3}mol/L$ mefenamate with an anionic slope of -55.98, -49.47, -59.35mV/decade in pH 8.9 borate buffer solution respectively. Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acid salts.
