A Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probe Tip is a piece of dual core optical fiber with a 500 µm optical core and a 250 µm hollow core for electrolyte filling with one end pulled and cut to a 10 µm diameter tip as illustrated above. The probe tip is simply inserted into dedicated Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probe Holder. A black coating can be added to minimize the light output/input in the shoulder of the tapered part of the probe.

The Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probes are perfectly suited for in vivo single-cell electrophysiological recordings, optogenetic stimulation and photometry monitoring.

• Optoelectric probe tips are sold in lots of 20 units.
• 10 µm is the standard fiber tip diameter. Other values on request.
