We are looking to purchase an infrared-DIC scope, two manipulators with probes, and tubing. We have a vibration table, amplifier, DA converter, and a faraday cage. Our other rig is from Scientifica and we are looking for a little variation with the new rig. I be performing whole-cell recordings and sometimes marrying our MEA with single-cell recordings.
Any suggestions on what to purchase ( e.g., a specific manipulator that you have liked or disliked ) or practical suggestions for setting up a rig ( I have heard and read about the frustrations ) would be great. Thanks.
Peace,
Ted J. Warren, Ph.D.
