The Model 8102 is a labratory grade, four-channel fixed potenital potentiostate. When combined with the free downloadable Pinnacle Acquisition Laboratory software, the 8102 provides a cost-effective, easy to use, and highly accurate system for the development and use of high impedance, amperometric biosensors and biosensor arrays. This potentiostat has been designed with the neuroscientist in mind; it is very well suited for in vitro, brain slices and anesthetized animals. In addition, the 8102 is also useful for a wide range of other measurement applications.
