An evaluation of photoengraved microelectrodes for extracellular single-unit recording.
Microelectrodes fabricated using integrated-circuit technology are shown to be suitable for extracellular single-unit recording, and the factors influencing electrode-cell coupling are discussed. Electrode tip size as well as location is found to be critical in recording high spike amplitudes, suggesting that the paths for current flow in central nervous system (CNS) tissue may be extremely small.
متن کاملExtracellular Single-Unit Recording Methods*
Since their refinement in the early 195Os, extracellular, singleunit recording methods have been used to obtain a wealth of data about the properties of CNS structures. The applications of the technique have been diverse: extracellular microelectrodes have been used to map the potential fields of single discharging neurons in order to answer fundamental questions about the excitability of CNS d...
متن کاملPrinciples of Extracellular Single-Unit Recording
8 There is a rather large gap between membrane properties of individual neurons and behavior or physiological events. To bridge this gap, we need to be able to understand the activity of individual neurons and how that activity contributes to neuronal circuits. Extracellular microelectrode recording, which focuses on neuronal action potentials of individual neurons as the “code” used by the int...
متن کاملA simple method for reconditioning epoxy-coated microelectrodes for extracellular single neuron recording.
Epoxy-insulated tungsten microelectrodes can be used once or twice in our lab before the impedance becomes too low. Dipping the electrodes in epoxy followed by curing restores their initial high impedance which is associated with good isolation of single neurons. It is a cost effective and simple procedure.

The long-term reliability of neural interfaces and stability of high-quality recordings are still unsolved issues in neuroscience research. High surface area PEDOT-PSS-CNT composites are able to greatly improve the performance of recording and stimulation for traditional intracortical metal microelectrodes by decreasing their impedance and increasing their charge transfer capability. This enhan...
