Prepare probe

• When handling probe, only touch PCB board
• Sterilize probe for chronic experiments
• Impedance check
• Perform Activation for stimulation applications (Optional)

Prepare animal

• Remove dura

Implant Probe

• Acute (pictured left)
• Connect to headstage/microdrive first for better accuracy and to minimize post implant movement
• If buckling occurs, do not force insertion. Wait and let the probe work its way into tissue (may take up to 10-15 min) - Chronic (pictured right)
• Connect to headstage/microdrive first for better accuracy and to minimize post implant movement
• If buckling occurs, do not force insertion. Wait and let the probe work its way into tissue (may take up to 10-15 min)

Connect to headstage (and/or microdrive)

• Adapters available
