Plexon now offers everything from electrodes through data acquisition and analysis. Plextrodes are available in stainless steel, platinum/iridium, pure iridium, and tungsten.

The Plextrode series of electrodes is backed by the same high level of support as any other Plexon product.

The following types of electrodes are available:

Floating Microelectrode Arrays

• For long-term chronic recording
• User defined electrode length (to 10 mm), inter-electrode spacing, impedance (10 kΩ to 2.5 MΩ), and number of electrodes (up to 36)
• Helical spring tether eliminates stress forces and keeps the array buoyant on the brain
• Available in platinum/iridium, pure iridium, and activated pure iridium for activation and long-term stimulation

 

 

Microwire Arrays

• Custom array configurations (3x3, 4x4, 4x8, etc.) available for single electrodes, stereotrodes, and tetrodes
• Available in 25 micron and 50 micron diameter stainless steel, platinum/iridium
• Polyethylene Glycol (carbo wax) encases electrodes to assist with perpendicular insertion; carbo wax easily dissolves with saline solution

 

 

 

Microelectrode Arrays

• Four different tip profiles available
• User defined impedances  
• Custom array configurations available
• Staggered inter-electrode lengths available
• Available in platinum/iridium, tungsten, and pure iridium for activation and long-term stimulation

 

 

 

 

Individual Metal Microelectrodes and Stereotrodes

• Four different tip profiles available
• User defined impedances
• Available in stainless steel, platinum/iridium, tungsten, and pure iridium for activation and long-term stimulation
