Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a micro-electrode array device and a special device for cell operation and electrophysiological signal detection. Background technique
[0002] Microelectrode array chip (microelectrode array, MEA) refers to the general term for microdevices that can detect nerve electrophysiological signals or neurotransmitters in multiple channels at the nerve cell, tissue or system level in real time. The earliest planar microelectrode array chip was created by Thomas in 1972. reported by et al., for recording the electrical activity of cardiomyocytes cultured in vitro.
[0003] As mentioned above, the microelectrode array chip was first developed for the purpose of studying the characteristics and mechanism of nervous system activity. In 1949, Lilly first used the multi-tube combination microelectrode insertion method perfused with electrolyte to study the relationship between primate behavior and neuron discharge; then the microelectrode ...
