Screen-Printed Electrodes, Carbon (C), 2 mm OD

Part Number
RRPE1001C

These low-cost, screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) are suitable for use in the teaching laboratory, biosensor development, and some electroanalytical applications, such as electrochemical measurements within a glovebox. These SPEs are fabricated using the same technology found in most blood glucose sensors. The electrode pattern includes a carbon working electrode, a carbon counter electrode, and a silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) reference electrode. The substrate is polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and the traces are insulted with a proprietary dielectric insulating material. These electrodes incompatible in non-aqueous solvents. These electrodes have a short lifetime, subject to how they are used in with what chemistry. If you do not already have it, the Screen-Printed Electrode Cell Starter Kit is required to interface these SPEs to a potentiostat.  These SPEs are sold in packs of  10, 50, or 100.
