Overview
TEC-05X – Two-Electrode Voltage Clamp Amplifier for recordings from medium and large sized cells
Features:
- Ideal amplifier for medium size cells such as invertebrate ganglion cells, muscle cells or neuromuscular junction preparations
- Can be used with sharp microelectrodes, and patch pipettes in the whole-cell and perforated-patch configuration
- Single electrode recording in BRIDGE mode: True current clamp operation with measured membrane potential and complete cancellation of series resistance (potential electrode)
- Two-pole (optionally four-pole) BESSEL filter for current
- Digital DISPLAYS for current, voltage and electrode resistance
- BUZZ and ELECTRODE CLEAR facility with remote hand or foot switch
- OSCILLATION SHUT-OFF unit prevents cells from damage
- From pA to µA – low voltage (±15 V) and high voltage (up to ±150 V) versions available
- Easy connection to all major data acquisition systems, TTL control of MODE of OPERATION, telegraphing outputs for current sensitivity and filter
- Now optionally with
- Dynamic Hybrid Clamp (DHC) Mode – measuring of conductances after APs
- Voltage Clamp controlled Current Clamp (VCcCC) Mode – Current Clamp experiments at controlled resting potentials
