MultiClamp 700B Microelectrode Amplifier

An amplifier with computer control for current- and voltage-clamp applications

KEY FEATURES

• High-speed current clamp (sharp electrode or field potential), single-channel and whole-cell voltage patch-clamp, and other functions are all possible with a computer-controlled amplifier
• Support two optional auxiliary headstages in addition to two primary headstages

Molecular Devices' MultiClampTM 700B Microelectrode Amplifier is a computer-controlled microelectrode current- and voltage-clamp amplifier dedicated to electrophysiology and electrochemistry applications. This adaptable amplifier can be used for bilayer recordings, high-speed current-clamp (sharp electrode or field potentials), ion-selective electrode recording, single-channel and whole-cell voltage patch-clamp, and amperometry/voltammetry. Up to two primary CV-7B headstages and two auxiliary (HS-2 or VG-2 type) headstages can be supported by the MultiClamp 700B amplifier. Each CV-7B headstage is equipped with a voltage-clamp current-to-voltage converter and a genuine current-clamp voltage follower. This makes it easier for the user to switch between high-speed current-clamp recording and low-noise patch-clamp recording. For bilayer recording, a CV-7B/BL headstage is a possible option.
