Irreversible Cyclic Voltammetry
In this blog post we provide data from our testing of the new Rodeostat. We performed a side-by-side comparison between the Rodeostat and the Cheapstat potentiostat using ascorbate cyclic voltammetry experiments.

IO Rodeo Open Source Potentiostat
We have recently been working on a new potentiostat. The Rodeostat (initally
referred to as a potentiostat shield) is an open source potentiostat for
performing electrochemical measurements which is designed to work with the
teensy 3.2 development board [https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/teensy31.html].
The Rodeostat is easily

One of our most frequently asked questions on the Forums
[http://forum.iorodeo.com/] and via email is how to produce a calibration for
the Cheapstat potentiostat. The Cheapstat potentiostat returns measured current
values as raw unitless integers read from the ADC (analog to digital converter)

We have launched a new online forum: http://forum.iorodeo.com.
Our aim in launching this Forum is that over time it will become a valuable
resource for people interested in open source science equipment and DIYBio and
grow to become a place to view frequently asked questions and discussions
Using an imaging enclosure for photographing gels
Photographing gels is an important step in research projects that involve any
kind of visual or quantitative DNA analysis by electrophoresis. Decent gel
imaging requires a fairly simple set-up of a light-tight box with a
transilluminator, camera and suitable filters.
In research, teaching or DIYBio labs, finding a
