Fiber Optic Cannula
A single fiber-optic cannula consists of a cannula, called ferrule, and an optic fiber to guide the light from the light source to the brain target.
Original price was: € 55,50.€ 44,40Current price is: € 44,40.
Implantable Fiber Optic Cannulae transmit light to brain tissue from a light source for optogenetic manipulation or photometry recording purposes. The cannulae are made of a ferrule and an optical fiber which is cemented to the skull during a stereotaxic surgery. 50%-60% of the ferrule stays exposed after implanting, providing an interface to be connected to the fiber-optic patch cord to guide the light.
Implantation of the fiber optics into the cranium consists of:
- All surface of the cranium is exposed and connective tissue is cleared.
- The fiber optic implant is held in a situation with the stereotaxic arm.
- Dental cement is applied to fix the fiber optic implant to the skull. 50%-60% of the ferrule is exposed to be connected to the fiber-optic patch cord during
experiment.
