Summary: | The invention relates to reference electrodes for use in voltammetric measuring chains for oxidative as well as reductive detection of analytes, which are open with respect to the measuring medium. A metal-containing phthalocyanine or a metalloporphyrin is employed as potential-determining electrode material for reference electrodes of the invention used in oxidative detection. A fourth period metal, preferably copper, and a salt of said metal is employed as potential-determining electrode material for reference electrodes of the invention used in reductive detection. The potential-determining electrode material is coated as a layer or component of a layer on a planar support. The open reference electrodes according to the invention are particularly suited for voltammetric chemo- or biosensors having a planar structure.
