MED64 APPLICATIONS

The MED64 is widely used in studies of the central and peripheral nervous system as well as cardiac and other muscle preparations. It is well-suited for experiments on acute tissue preparation or cultures.

The MED64 system offers technical advantages over competing systems that make it particularly well-suited for acute slice recording: Its low-impedance electrodes make small single-unit activity easier to resolve, and the high capacitance of its electrodes make synaptic potentials easier to evoke using the flexible built-in stimulator and customizable software protocols.

Extracellular stimulation and recording can be combined with patch clamping, microscopic visualization, or other methods (e.g. Ca++ imaging) used to examine relationships between structure and function. It is a stable, user friendly, yet powerful tool for medium throughput drug testing.
