Microelectrode array (multi-well, 384 channels) Axion Maestro Edge

Basic Information

Name: Microelectrode array (multi-well, 384 channels)
Manufacturer: Axion
Model: Maestro Edge
Facility: Electro­physiology Facility (EcrtD)
Partner: Technische Universität Dresden (TUD)
Location: CRTD

Short Description

A multi-well plate MEA (384 channels) with heat- andCO2-control, electric and optic stimulation capacity for cell culture probes (2-D or organoid) or acute or organotypic tissue samples

Description

Application: Recording of extracellular potentials from electrically active tissue samples.

Common read outs of interest:

  • Neuronal action potentials (spontaneous or evoked)
  • Field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSP)
  • Local field potentials (LFP)

Technical specifications:

  • 384 electrodes embedded in 6- (64 electrodes/well) or 24- (16 electrodes/ well) well plates
  • Particularly suited for cell culture samples
  • CO2 control
  • Heat control
  • Scheduled recordings
  • Electric stimulation
  • Optic stimulation (Lumos)
  • Pharmacolotical stimulation (bath application of modulators)

Separate upright imaging capacity.

Alternatively: inverted imaging capacity of the MEA1060-Inv-BC set up
