Introduction
Excellent for bipolar stimulation studies where the current injection needs to be confined to a small localized part of the neural tissue.
Stereotrodes have also been used for enhanced isolation of single neural elements by simultaneous recordings of multiple units on two closely spaced microelectrodes. The tip spacing is typically equal to the diameter of the electrode shaft, however, they can be specified to greater separations in most instances.
Select your preferred metal
TUNGSTEN
Tungsten is a versatile and widely-used microelectrode material that offers a good balance between performance and cost
PLATINUM IRIDIUM
Considered by many to be the “gold standard” for chronic recording and microstimulation due to its electrochemical and mechanical characteristics
ELGILOY
Elgiloy (a stainless cobalt-chromium alloy) is available in single electrodes for specialty applications, such as vibrating probes for SVET
