INTRODUCTION

Ω

mega-Tip-Z

’s measuring circuit is 

largely unaffected by electrode offset or 

tip junction potentials. Resistances up 

to 2000 megohms may be measured for 

micropipettes and metal tip impedance up 

to 20 megohms. Both are displayed on a 

digital LCD. 

The gold-plated miniature preamplifier 

probe allows the user to conveniently 

monitor microelectrode resistance while 

bevelling pulled glass microcapillary 

electrodes. 

Ω

mega-Tip-Z

 is an 

excellent adjunct to WPI’s model 

1300M

 

microelectrode beveler. Battery operated, 

Ω

mega-Tip-Z

’s micro-powered circuitry allows low noise recording for hundreds of 

hours. 

Ω

mega-Tip-Z

 can also measure DC electrode tip potential with micropipette 

electrodes up to 2000 mV.
