These new cells are fitted with two pairs of stainless steel electrodes. One pair measures the current that flows through the solution under test, the second pair measures the voltage applied to the ...

Electrodes placed in the brain record neural activity, and can help treat neural diseases like Parkinson's and epilepsy. Interest is also growing in developing better brain-machine interfaces, in ...

Nanofabricated ultraflexible electrode arrays that have a cross-sectional area that is much smaller than conventional carbon fibre electrodes could be used to detect action potentials from individual ...

Procter & Gamble has filed a patent for a pH sensing probe that includes a sensor body, a pH glass electrode, a reference electrode, and a backup pH electrode. The backup electrode can be ...

The human brain is complex. Understanding deep brain function usually requires the insertion of probes that frequently result ...

Find out how stainless steel neural probes reduce brain damage risks while enabling safer, deeper, and more reliable neural ...

The neural signatures for movement, touch, and thought processes are hidden in the activity of large neural populations. Each action and process is coordinated by a complex interplay between different ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become an increasingly common treatment for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, but the procedure still carries significant risks. A new probe that performs ...
