Description

Designed for chronic experiments, the MicroProbes Microwire Arrays (MWA) provide the optimum in flexibility and affordable alternative for the neuroscience community.

Features

Up to 32 penetrating wires per array for short- and long-term recordings.
Custom wire length (5-23 mm), including different length for each row.
Custom spacing between wires is in the range of 250 - 1000 µm.
Custom wire diameter options available (25/50 µm).
Custom impedance for individual wires between 200-800 kΩ.
Stainless steel and Platinum/Iridium fine wires with teflon or polyimide insulation material.
Custom reference and ground electrodes according to the researcher’s requirements.
Optionally integrated fiber optic and/or drug delivery cannula.
