1. A sensing apparatus for sensing chemical compositions comprising:

  • an electrocatalytic sensor having at least sensing and reference electrodes;

    means for applying a first periodic signal to the sensor during a measurement time period;

    means for generating a periodic reactivation signal differing from the first periodic signal by at least one of amplitude, frequency, and waveshape;

    means for applying the periodic reactivation signal to the sensor during a reactivation time period after completion of the measurement time period; and

    sensing means for sensing electrical current flow between the sensing and reference electrodes during the measurement time period.
