I was in Tokyo recently and stopped by my friend Taro Ishikawa’s lab (of TaroTools<\/a> fame). He and Misa are doing very well. They have exciting work underway and are expanding their lab. Taro’s a resourceful, clever guy and while I was there I saw some more of his handiwork. Instead of buying a Picospritzer<\/a> (which costs $1500-$3000, the NPI PDES<\/a> system is less expensive, but still in the 4 digits), Taro hooked a regulator (above) directly to an electric valve (below) and called it a day. The valve is actuated by a TTL pulse, and the regulator sets the pressure. Simple, elegant, saves space, and saves money.<\/p>\n
