Measure mV and MΩ impedance of metal or glass microelectrodes
- Battery operated
Benefits
- Determine impedance of electrode during micropipette beveling process for pipette reproducibility
Applications
- Measure impedance of metal or glass capillary microelectrodes
Omega-Tip-Z™ was created especially for measuring impedance in etched tungsten, platinum-iridium* and steel microelectrodes, as well as electrolyte-filled micropipettes. The meter’s AC impedance-measuring circuit is unaffected by electrode offset or tip junction potentials. The gold-plated miniature probe lets you conveniently monitor micro-electrode impedance in electrolytes, and an electrode tip cleaning feature lets you remove buildup quickly. Omega-Tip-Z can also measure DC electrode tip potentials up to 2000 millivolts. The instrument operates for hundreds of hours without battery failure.
