Microelectrodes

These probes can incorporate fiber optics and / or drug delivery cannula for precise optogenetic stimulation and local drug administration

We offer our electrodes in various designs for acute and long-term (chronic) applications, for instance

CE-Acute-Insulated-SharpTip

This design is ideal for precise bipolar stimulation (evoked activity or evoked potential studies) in acute experiments

The core electrode (Platinum / Iridium or Stainless Steel) is sharpened to facilitate dura penetration and precise, localized stimulation of the tissue

We use polyimide tubing for insulating the outer Stainless Steel tube, which exposed part forms the other contact

Epoxy insulation separates the two metal contacts

The macroscopic tip has a tapering profile

Two gold male pin connectors provide easy connection to your data acquisition system
