Monitoring Seizure-Induced Neural Electrical Activity in Brain Slices Using Microelectrode Arrays

-- views • 1:05 min

Transcripción

Begin by placing a brain slice on a microelectrodearray or MEA recording chamber filled with artificial cerebrospinal fluid or aCSF containing the test drug.

Adjust the position of the slice and secure it with an anchor.

Start the continuous flow of the aCSF, containing a seizure-inducing test drug.

Capture an image of the slice.

Select the appropriate microelectrodes in contact with the brain slice.

Activate the stimulus unit and connect the wires to the MEA unit.

Record the baseline signals.

Perform a test run to determine the optimal stimulus intensity.

Now, start delivering electrical pulses.

These pulses stimulate the selected brain region, inducing an artificial seizure.

Record the resulting electrical activity to capture seizure-evoked responses.
