They can also be used to image cycling motion with far greater temporal resolution. Christian Willert, Boleslaw Stasicki, S. Moessner and Joachim Klinner have written a paper detailing a simple […]

Open-Source Potentiostats for Electrochemical Detection
Potentiometry measures the potential difference between an indicator electrode in a solution and a reference electrode. This provides a quantitative non-destructive measurement of a liquid sample. A common electrode is the glass-membrane electrode used in a pH meter., but various indicator electrodes are designed for specifically for various solutions. The potentiostat is an unloved staple in most wet-labs […]

Pairing Plastic Printed Parts Professionally with 3DHubs
Last week we saw Holden Lab at Newcastle University start a discussion about using threaded fasteners to secure 3D printed parts. Dr. Robert LeSuer pointed out an extremely thorough discussion on the matter on 3DHubs.com . 3DHubs has an incredible wealth of information on DIY construction, including an amazing cost analysis of 3D printing vs […]
