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.

Permissions

Consumable stocks inherit permissions through the inventory associated with them.
