I gave this a partial read and its very promising sounding. It may take 5 times less time, not more time...

and it seems open enough to make an OSHW product from, if paying royalties on the special electrodes is not too costly:

Competing Interests: The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: author Nathaniel D. Robinson
owns a part of a company (Lunavation AB) that owns a daughter company (LunaMicro AB), which holds the following patent and pending
applications for the use of pi-conjugated polymer electrodes for microfluidic and electrophoretic applications: Swedish patent
SE534488 (Ett system för elektrokinetisk flödesteknik), and patent applications WO2011102801, EP2011744981, JP2012553852, and
US13580343 (An electrokinetic fluidic system). There are no further patents, products in development or marketed products to
declare. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.

Conceived and designed the experiments: KB SN NDR. Performed the experiments: KB SN NDR. Analyzed the data: KB SN NDR. Contributed

The results of big chemical and color changes in gels would be long gone....
