BEAVERTON, Oregon — Vernier Science Education has recently teamed up with MicroLAB to provide support to MicroLAB customers as MicroLAB leaders retire. In this partnership, Vernier has added three new MicroLAB accessories to its chemistry product lineup, which are designed to enhance the lab experience for high school and college educators and students. These accessories can be used alongside Vernier Go Direct sensors and include the Precision Volume Dispenser, Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate, and Electrochemistry Metals Kit.

Dr. John Amend, the president of MicroLAB, expressed his confidence in Vernier Science Education as he passes the torch to them in his retirement. He mentioned that Vernier shares their educational philosophy and is well-known for their exceptional customer service. Jill Hedrick, the CEO of Vernier Science Education, also praised Dr. Amend for his leadership in the college chemistry education space and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to continue offering these products to educators.

The Precision Volume Dispenser is a precise and durable alternative to a burette, providing students and educators with an easy-to-use tool for various experiments. It can be used with different sensors to conduct acid-base, conductometric, or potentiometric titrations.

The Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate simplifies electrochemistry experiments by offering a reusable system for stable measurements. It uses premeasured ion solutions and a unique salt bridge to enhance precision and consistency while reducing the need for single-use materials, making it a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly option for labs.

The Electrochemistry Metals Kit allows students and educators to study electrochemistry principles through hands-on experiments with different metals. The kit’s reusable design supports sustainability practices and ensures accurate results when paired with the Go Direct Voltage Probe or Constant Current System.

Melissa Hill, the director of chemistry at Vernier Science Education, emphasized the benefits of using these accessories for exploring electrochemical reactions. By improving measurement accuracy and streamlining experiment setup, educators can offer students impactful learning experiences that are both efficient and environmentally conscious.
