In the experiments described in this blog post, we made a bismuth modified carbon paste electrode for detecting heavy metals, lead and zinc, using square wave anodic stripping voltammetry and the Rodeostat potentiostat. This is a continuation of our experiments using electrochemistry to measure lead and other heavy metal pollutants

The Rodeostat python library has several electrochemistry programs currently implemented including cyclic voltammetry [https://blog.iorodeo.com/cyclic-voltammetry-with-the-rodeostat/], constant voltage, linear sweep, chronoamperometry [https://blog.iorodeo.com/chronoamperometry-with-glucose-test-strips/] and more. We have recently added a square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) program to the library. Stripping voltammetry is a powerful

In this electrochemistry experiment we used the Rodeostat [https://iorodeo.com/products/potentiostat-shield] potentiostat to measure glucose in liquids using commonly available glucose test strips. Glucose test strips are a type of biosensor - they convert biochemical reactions to an electrochemical signal. Each glucose test strip contains the enzyme glucose
