Vernier Science Education, based in BEAVERTON, Oregon, has recently teamed up with MicroLAB to offer support to customers as MicroLAB leaders retire. As a part of this collaboration, Vernier is introducing three new MicroLAB accessories to its chemistry product line, aimed at enhancing the lab experience for high school and college-level educators and students. These accessories can be used in conjunction with Vernier Go Direct® sensors and include the Precision Volume Dispenser, Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate, and Electrochemistry Metals Kit.
Dr. John Amend, president of MicroLAB, expressed his confidence in passing on the torch to Vernier Science Education as he retires. He commended Vernier for their educational philosophy and exceptional customer service. Jill Hedrick, CEO of Vernier Science Education, also praised Dr. Amend for his leadership in college chemistry education and innovative practices. She expressed gratitude for the opportunity to continue offering these high-quality products to educators.
The Precision Volume Dispenser is a reliable and precise alternative to a burette, providing students and educators with a user-friendly tool for various titrations. The Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate simplifies electrochemistry experiments with metals and the Go Direct Voltage Probe, offering stability, accuracy, and eco-friendly benefits. Additionally, the Electrochemistry Metals Kit allows for hands-on exploration of electrochemical principles with pre-cut metal wires, promoting sustainability and consistent results.
Melissa Hill, PhD, director of chemistry at Vernier Science Education, highlighted the advantages of using these accessories with the Go Direct Voltage Probe to enhance the study of electrochemical reactions. By improving accuracy, sustainability, and ease of setup, educators can create impactful learning experiences for students that are both efficient and environmentally conscious.
