BASi Petit Ampère
The Petit Ampère is a portable, fixed-potential potentiostat designed for basic electrochemical detection and biosensor applications. It can use either battery or AC power, and may be combined with an LC-4C or additional Petit Ampères to produce a multichannel potentiostat. Three different versions of the Petit Ampère are available with different current ranges.
