Ravi,
     I would suggest that you use Platinum or gold for the electrodes.=20
You could also use oxygen free water. Stainless steel would be better=20
than regular steel. Steel will quickly corrode and this will change the=20
characteristics of the solution. What level of stability are you looking=20
for?
Thanks,
rich!
