MICROELECTRODE SUPPORT DE CELLULES A MEMBRANE EXCITABLE

摘要

The invention concerns a microelectrode designed to support at least a cell with excitable membrane, comprising an insulating wafer (11) whereon are formed detecting electrodes. A cover above each electrode is enclosed with walls made of insulating material substantially perpendicular to the wafer for locking in position said at least one cell. Spacing means (26-29) enable said at least one cell to be at a specific distance from the corresponding electrode.
