Open Source Software for the Real-Time Control, Processing and Visualization of High-Volume Electrochemical Data

Electrochemical sensors are major players in the race for improved molecular diagnostics due to their convenience, temporal resolution, manufacturing scalability, and their ability to support real-time measurements. This is evident in the ever-increasing number of health-related electrochemical sensing platforms, ranging from single-measurement point-of-care devices to wearable devices supporting immediate and continuous monitoring. In support of the need for such systems to rapidly process large data volumes we describe here an open-source, easily customizable, multi-platform compatible program for the real-time control, processing and visualization of electrochemical data. The software’s architecture is modular and fully doc-umented, allowing the easy customization of the code to support the processing of voltammetric (e.g., square-wave and cy-clic) and chronoamperometric data. The program, which we have called Software for the Analysis and Continuous Monitor-ing of Electrochemical Systems (SACMES), als...
