Brief pulses of electricity are used in various biomedical research applications as a stimulus to excite nerve or muscle fibers. Several factors need to be considered when choosing the right stimulator.The DS3 provides a precise Constant Current stimulus (up to 32mA) controllable in Pulse Duration and Amplitude and as with the DS2A this output comes from self-contained batteries. The DS3 also features a "clamp" or discharge c…

The DS4 takes an analogue voltage waveform defined within your own data acquisition/ control system and converts it into an isolated constant current stimulus. The DS4 will accept several input voltage ranges and produces four output ranges (±10µA, ±100µA, ±1mA and ±10mA). It also features a GATE input, so that several DS4 units can be controlled by a single analog waveform, but enabled individually via this GATE input. A t…

The ITC-18 offers unsurpassed capability while retaining all of the exceptional features of its predecessor, the ITC-16. The ITC-18 provides a major improvement in the quality of acquired data, making measurements that would otherwise not be possible.* All synchronous analog and digital channels are optically isolated* Eight si…

The world's smallest patch clamp rig. Providing biggest results. The Port-a-Patch is a one-cell-at-a-time system, which is surprisingly small for a complete patch clamp rig. Patch clamp recordings in the whole cell configuration, and single channel recordings in the cell attached configuration, can be performed with planar patch clamp chips. The Port-a-Patch is routinely provided with an Axon/MDC MultiClamp amplifier or an EPC…

• straightforward preparation of GUVs • growth of GUVs can be monitored via microscope • GUVs can be used for solvent free bilayer recordings with Nanion's Port-a-Patch or Patchliner The Nanion Vesicle Prep Pro is a stand-alone workstation for the preparation of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). To form the GUVs, the principle of electro-swelling is used. Lipid is spread on the glass substrate of the vesicle chamber, so that…

Run dual two-electrode voltage clamp experiments simultaneously:With two additional micromanipulators, the system can perform dual two-electrode voltage clamp (TEVC) experiments simultaneously. Designed to be affordable to the scientific community, this system increases productivity significantly. Additional units can be run in parallel to further increase TEVC throughput.Run up to four patch clamp simultaneously:As each man…

The ez-gSEAL 100A pressure controller is designed mainly for automated patch clamping, but it can also be used for many other applications. With the ez-gSEAL pressure controller, patch clamping becomes as easy as a click of a button. You may use it with our ezPATCH 100A smart manipulator, PatchMAX 100A automated patch clamp system, ChannelMAX 100A Mini automated dual clamp system or ChannelMAX 100A Twin automated quad clamp sy…

Incredibly small footprint:This patent-pending design has an 8" x 8" footprint; it is the smallest multifunction patch clamp system available.  The automated patch clamping system replaces the microscope and the manipulator in the traditional rig.

The NL900D Case & Power Supply unit forms the heart of every NeuroLog System. Modules are not only powered by this unit, but wiring within the case allows signals to be passed between modules without the need for a mass of cable connections through the front panel sockets. The NL900D measures 133mm (high), 483mm (wide) and 317mm (deep).

* Small working volume (* Fast solution exchangeExpression of recombinant receptors in oocytes has been a favorite choice for researchers to assess the pharmacology of recombinant receptors. Since the oocytes are 1-1.5 mm in diameter, however, fast solution exchange around the oocyte was difficult. After several years of electrophysiological research, we have designed a Xenopus oocyte perfusion chamber for use in automated and…

Perfusion chamber, holds 35mm & 50mm Petri dishes (Corning Brand ONLY), or 25mm x 75mm glass slides

* Perfuse cells right in your 35mm Nunc Petri Dish (our default size)Cells cultured in Petri dishes are a popular research tool used in numerous applications, including patch clamping and intracellular ion probe imaging. True perfusion (continuous inflow and outflow) of solutions can be difficult to configure. This forces scientists to plate cells on cover slips for placement into specially designed perfusion chambers. However…
