The three-dimensional MEA (3D-MEA) is intended for use with acute slice preparations. In order to increase tight contact of the slice with the electrodes the chip can be treated with polyethylenimine like a standard culture dish. For cleaning purposes please be advised to use the following cleaning protocol. After cleaning store the 3D-MEA with the lid closed in a dry and dark environment.

Multi-Electrode Arrays
(MEA) are used to record extracellular electrical activitiy of excitable tissue
simultaneously from as many as 60 sites. In most cases, single unit activity
and slow field potentials are recorded in preparations such as single dissociated
neurons, cultured heart muscle, organotypic brain slices, and acute biological
samples.
Planar MEA and 3-dimensional MEA (3D-MEA) are available in several different layout configuations to cover almost all potential applications. We do offer, however, user-specific solutions in terms of MEA- layout configuration. If you are interested in a MEA-design not currently available please do not hesitate to contact us.
For dimensions available for the 3D arrays, please go to the technical specifications section.
