Hi, Dalia. Please start by defining for yourself exactly what you mean by "electrolytes". The word has a broad meaning in general science, a narrower meaning in physiology, and probably an even narrower meaning in sports drinks (you could start at Wikipedia). Once you have a clear understanding of what you mean by electrolyte you'll have some clues about how to measure for it. Good luck.
