Electrochemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the relationship between electricity and chemical reactions. It is a fundamental science that has applications in a wide range of industries, from energy storage and conversion to materials science and medicine.…
The team at Macias Sensors is convinced that the future of electrochemical analytical systems is in PCB-based platforms. But… what is a PCB? In this post we explain that in detail. Introduction to PCBs Every day we interact with multiple…
In our previous post, we explaind what is a PCB and how the PCB technology has impacted consumer electronics by enabling more compact and lighter devices. In this post, we explain the electrochemistry evolution to date and why at Macias…
In previous posts we have exposed the natural tendency of electronic devices to be integrated in a PCB. This tendency also applies to electrochemical sensors. At the moment, the transition of electrochemical sensors towards printed circuits has been accomplished by…
The rise of consumer electronics has brought challenges with the surface finish of connections. We have all experienced how, over time, the cables we use to charge cell phones or connect earphones stop working. While there’s peopl that believe this…
Electrochemical biosensors and chemosensors can detect multiple analytes of interest for several industries. Here are some examples. In food processing, pH sensors help control the fermentation process of products such as yogurts. In agriculture, chemosensors can detect plant nutrients like…
When we think about generations in technology, perhaps the first thing that comes to mind is the telecommunications network. First was 1G and now we are already at 5G. With each new generation we have improved the speed, complexity and…
If you are here you have probably been looking for information on electrochemistry for a while now. Probably, you have also seen the potential of electrochemistry for your research. However, you are not experienced in this field and are not…
In electrochemistry it is very common to work with so-called 3 electrode cells. These cells have: The RE is perhaps the one that is most difficult to understand for those starting in electrochemical research. In this post we explain in…
What is a biosensor? A biosensor is a device that uses biological receptors to selectively detect molecules, biomolecules, pathogens or ions. These receptors tend to be enzymes, antibodies, DNA, RNA or even whole cells. How does a biosensor work? Biosensors…
