Adpt-MEA2

Overview

MEA (Microelectrode Array) is a simplified electrophysiological signal recording system designed to streamline the electrophysiological recording process. Its design allows users to conveniently swap different types of microelectrode array chips based on specific experimental requirements.

• Record electrical signals from multiple sites within the culture.
• Replicate the biophysical microenvironment found in vivo.

Device Overview

In vitro experiments often struggle to replicate the cellular conditions found in living organisms. Primary cells cultured on rigid multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) exhibit significant differences from their in vivo counterparts, limiting the predictive value of such data. MEAs utilize glass multi-electrode arrays to recreate the mechanical and electrical environments of in vivo cells in a controlled setting. They can be paired with various headstages and stimulation array boards for optical imaging and electrical stimulation/recording, effectively bridging the gap between in vitro and in vivo research and enhancing the relevance of experimental findings.

Assembly Process
