Scientifica SliceScope Pro 3000

The most spacious patch clamp electrophysiology system with the largest, movable mounting stage.

The SliceScope Pro 3000 is an integrated electrophysiology system for patch clamp recording, incorporating a large, movable mounting stage. The versatility of the system means you can perform slice electrophysiology, fluorescent imaging, optogenetics, and with the moving stage, it is also suitable for multiphoton imaging.

This package consists of the SliceScope microscope, two PatchStar manipulators, a large XY motorised mounting stage for your sample and manipulators, and a recording chamber.

Product benefits

Record even the smallest electrophysiological signals

The ultra-low noise electronics ensure a high signal-to-noise ratio, meaning you can record tiny signals and acquire the highest data quality every time.

Acquire data from long-term experiments

The incredible stability of the integrated PatchStar Micromanipulators and the sample stage means that you can make long-term recordings from delicate cells and dendrites, enabling full signal acquisition, saving time, and ensuring high-quality data.

Enjoy total control of your rig

The fully integrated PatchStar manipulator, microscope, and sample stage, allow you to smoothly position your electrodes, focus your microscope and align your sample using simple and intuitive remote controls. Since it is so easy to use, even inexperienced users can reliably and confidently acquire data.

Achieve the perfect rig set up for your desired experiment

The SliceScope Pro system’s extreme versatility enables you to position all the components to suit your needs. You have complete freedom to align your manipulators to the perfect angle for patching, position your sample for best access, and set up your rig to meet your experimental needs.

A rig for life – grow your rig with your experiments

The innovative, modular design of the SliceScope Pro enables you to develop and adapt your rig to suit your experimental requirements as they change. If you wish to use IR DIC, fluorescence illumination, optogenetics stimulation or multiphoton imaging, the SliceScope Pro is designed to be able to grow with your research. This saves you precious money and time.

Choose your preferred controller to acquire data

Control your rig with a Control Cube or PatchPad - whichever suits you. Both options enable you to control all aspects of your rig, including speed control, memory positions, and home-in and home-out for rapid pipette exchange.

Compact design

The slimline SliceScope and ergonomically designed manipulators and stage create a compact system, providing you with the space you need to add any further equipment to support your unique experimental requirements. Your lab space is also maximised, since the system is mountable on most small lab tables.

Ultimate freedom of manipulator and sample positioning

The ultra-stable manipulator and sample mounting platforms are so versatile that you can mount them anywhere on your rig. The platforms being so compact makes the SliceScopePro 1000 the most popular choice when complete freedom of configuration is required. The swing-in / swing-out function enables you to change sample and pipettes in any way that suits you.

Record from multiple sites of interest

You can confidently search your sample and exchange pipettes during recordings, due to the stability of the sample and manipulators, and smooth movement of the microscope.

Advanced control options

Control the focus, condenser, translation stage and micromanipulators using our remote control options. Alternatively use our LinLab software, developed specifically to control all of our motorised components and heating and perfusion elements.

Position co-ordinates can be viewed, stored, exported and recalled in LinLab, or users can couple the system with our PatchPad Display Controller, so X, Y and Z co-ordinates can be viewed in real time right by the sample. An ideal set up for customers doing auditory research who any one who wishes to avoid using a workstation near to their sample.

Testimonials

"[The SliceScope] is highly stable and has a minimal footprint, clearly the result of listening to the experimenter's needs combined with clever design."

Professor Dimitri Kullmann
