Data Acquisition and Analysis:
The PowerLab 8/35 is shipped with ADInstruments LabChart software that provides data recording integrity, display and analysis features. The research system is also supplied with LabChart Pro software, which includes all the ADInstruments LabChart Modules (excluding GLP Client and Server). LabChart Modules provide application specific data acquisition, analysis and display features.
LabChart Pro also entitles the purchaser to 5 years of FREE LabChart Pro software upgrades and updates. Purchasers are also entitled to any LabChart Module released during this 5 year period (excludes GLP Client and Server).
For more information see the LabChart Pro page or contact your nearest ADInstruments representative.
Features:
- High compliance voltage (±180 V)
- Unique bath clamp circuitry
- Ideal for clamping large cells and cell structures, e.g. squid axons
- Extended current measuring range
- Decreased noise level and 4-pole Bessel filter
- An internal switch permits measurements of the current in series with the current electrode, instead of in the bath
- Optional differential voltage headstages
- Buzz controls (1 kHz square wave) for each electrode aid in penetration of cell membranes with a minimum of leakage
- Overload alarm (audible and visual) indicate when the compliance voltage is exceeded safeguarding the Oocyte and indicating that current records are subject to saturation
- DC Offsets for both voltage and current electrodes
- Electrode Test for both electrodes
- Capacity Compensation for the Vm voltage input
