Framework Online Coming Soon

We are excited to announce that the online version of our Framework Software Help is getting a complete makeover.  The updated version will be available to all users of Gamry's Instruments.  Using the online help version will be convenient and help keep you updated with our software's capabilities.

2025 Annual Short Course on 

Electrochemically Active Biofilms

This year marks the 10th year of the EAB Short Course held at Washington State University in Pullman WA, USA. Attendees sat together through lectures and laboratory sessions for a week-long discussion on electron transfer in biofilms. As always, running cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy on live biofilm grown on electrodes (and the subsequent discussions) was well-received. Check out some of the CVs we collected in the lab below. You can see two types of biofilm response on carbon fabric electrodes. Cathodic biofilm (left panel) exhibits a net negative, cathodic current. Whereas anodic biofilm (right panel) exhibits a net positive, anodic current. These types of biofilms are abundant in our natural environment and play an important role in natural energy cycles.

Missed us at Fall ACS Meeting

in Washington, D.C.?

 

 Jerome and Maya were there showing off the latest Gamry hardware and sharing useful tips with visitors about getting the most out of your potentiostat. They even pulled out a laptop and ran some tests on a ​Reference 620 potentiostat​ to demonstrate the importance of setting a proper IE range to measure pA-level current. Our next stop is the Fall 248th ECS Meeting in Chicago, IL, USA. Stop by and visit us if you’re attending!

Our Next Live Webinar
October 8, 2025 10:00 AM EasternTime

 

Presented by Jake Huang

Institute of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry

University of Münster

 

 

 

 

A User’s Guide to the Distribution of Relaxation Times

 

 

 

This webinar will cover:

  • The concept of the DRT and how it relates to other modeling approaches
  • Why the DRT calculation is ambiguous and the importance of tuning
  • A conceptual (and lightly mathematical) introduction to DRT calculation methods
  • How to apply the DRT to experimental data, from best practices to potential pitfalls
  • Opportunities for more advanced usage of the DRT

Frequently Asked Questions

Always check the impedance of your reference electrode before an experiment if it hasn’t been used in a while. This one simple step can save you valuable testing time by identifying a problem before it ruins your experiment. Simply run the standard script “Measure reference electrode impedance” within the utilities category of the experiment drop-down menu and follow the prompts. For a detailed procedure, see our technote.
