Vibrating Probe

Vibrating Probe

These unique Platinum/Iridium or Stainless Steel microelectrodes are specifically designed to have extremely small tip exposures resulting in relatively high impedance values. These electrodes have been developed in cooperation with Alan Shipley and others at the National Vibrating Probe Facility (NVPF) within the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA.

Their primary goal is to develop techniques for design and development of computer-controlled non-invasive, scanning microelectrode measurement systems to detect ionic currents in conductive solutions.
