8500-K1: Tethered Mouse FSCV System

The tethered fast scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) system allows researchers to harness the powerful genetics of the mouse model to address underlying mechanisms of biogenic neurotransmitter release and function. The tethered system for mice uses a head-mounted FSCV board and low-torque commutator connected to a FSCV PC-control interface box that streams data to a host PC. A stimulus control is available via an external tether. The system can acquire data at a rate of ten sweeps/second at 1000 points/sweep. The kit includes the following: 8408: Mouse Commutator/Swivel 8413-M: 12" 15-Pin Cable 8426: 18" Mounting Plate 8503: Tethered FSCV Mouse Headstage 8504: FSCV Interface Box 9002: USB Cable For first time buyers, we recommend purchasing an accessory kit (8500-K3) to complement the hardware system. Note: Custom cable may be needed from stim isolator to stim electrode.  Note: Carbon fiber electrodes are sold separately.
