Types of consumable stocks
These are the available Type options for Consumable stocks:
Optic Fiber
A flexible light guide used primarily in optogenetic experiments to deliver light to specific brain regions. Optic fibers are essential in neuroscience for manipulating neural circuits using light.
Silicon Probe
A specialized tool for recording electrical signals from neurons. Silicon probes are vital for experiments focused on understanding brain function through electrophysiological recordings.
Virus Solution
A viral vector preparation used for introducing genes into cells. Virus solutions are important for studies involving gene expression, neural circuit tracing, and optogenetics.
Single Wire Electrode
A simple yet effective tool for measuring electrical activity at a single site. Single wire electrodes are commonly used in studies examining neural or muscular electrical activity.
