The Patch Pro 1000 is an electrophysiology system facilitating dual or single patch clamping with your existing upright microscope. The package includes a motorised microscope XY translation stage, two PatchStar micromanipulators and adjustable Post & Platform mounting systems for the manipulators and sample. It enables plenty of access to the sample and flexible positioning of the posts. It is typically used with slice electrophysiology.
Benefits
