Description

Basic system suitable for all applications (Acute slices, Cultured cells, Slice cultures)

MED64-Basic System is user-friendly microelectrode array (MEA) system for in vitro extracellular electrophysiology. It features with the industry’s most sensitive MEA system, providing high-quality reliable data. Created by Panasonic, the MED64 has been on market for 20 years and has hundreds of users and publications worldwide.

Features

Acquire signal from 64 electrodes simultaneously.
Stimulation through any of the 64 electrodes (up to 2 electrodes simultaneously) using internal stimulator.
Unrivaled signal-to-noise ratio of 0.8 μV RMS noise level.
Record inside of a humidified incubator.
Large current-driven stimulation via any electrode.
High-quality evoked signal without interference of stimulus artifacts.
One system can be used for multiple experiments with its amplifier’s broad acquisition bandwidth and analog low pass/high pass filter.
Analyze data online during your experiment or offline after.
Suitable for acute slices, slice cultures, and cell cultures.
Low-cost upgrade to the MED64-Allegro or Quad II System.
