The IH-5 MAP Holder has been designed to allow the recording of multiple MAP signals from the surface of an isolated heart using the HSE IH-5 isolated heart perfusion system
Up to eight MAP electrodes can be mounted and positioned on individually adjustable spring loaded cantilever arms.
The spring force of the cantilever arm can be adjusted to optimize tissue depolarization of each MAP signal independently.
Each bipolar MAP electrode has a recording tip and a side mounted reference electrode.
A reference ring is created around the recording electrode using a tubular sponge in contact with the both the tissue and reference electrode.
The IH-SR MAP electrode is used to record individual MAP signals from the surface of an isolated heart for species from mice and rats up to guinea pigs.
The IH-SR MAP electrode has a recording electrode at its tip and an integral side mounted reference electrode.
A special Mini-MAP electrode holder is used to adjust the depolarization pressure of the electrode.
The proprietary miniball joint holders are used in combination with the Mini-MAP electrode and holder to precisely position and secure the electrode on the surface of the myocardium.
