WPI ISO-80 Isolated Bio-Amplifier with Active Probe

The ISO-80 provides low noise AC coupled amplification and offers excellent recording performance for monitoring extracellular nerve action potentials in vitro and in living animals. The ISO-80 is provided with a remote headstage (1 m cable) which incorporates an electrode impedance test function and a constant current stimulator. The constant current stimulator can be used for cell marking, stimulation or electrode cleaning.

Features:

• Battery powered, rechargeable
• High pass and low pass filtering
• Active remote head stage
• AC only amplification
• Electrode impedence test function
• Electrode current generation with polarity select
• Variable output positioning
• The ISO-80P replacement probe does not need the ISO-80 to be sent in for calibration

Systems can be purchased with one, two, three or up to eight preamplifier modules or mixed with Bridge8 transducer amplifier modules. You can then select:

• An appropriate low pass filter setting, gain and offset on the channel amplifier panel.
• Notch filter added to reduce line frequency interference.
• Optional headstage preamplifier (10x gain) allows low noise extracellular (DC) recording with Iso-DAM8A and adds greater signal bandwidth than a shielded cable of the same length.

Typical applications include measuring EMG, EEG, extracellular and action potentials in vitro or in vivo. The ISO-80 system is DC isolated from the subject ground and employs state of the art electro-magnetic shielding for improved noise rejection. The amplifier employs both high pass and low pass filtering with gain from 100 to 10,000. The lowest low-pass setting is 5 Hz and the upper passband is 10 kHz.
