Optical Fibers
(for Optogenetic Experiments)
Product Description


The Thomas RECORDING optical fibers are intended to be used for optogenetics, delivering light (from lasers/LEDs) into specific brain regions to control genetically-modified neurons (opsins) for studying neural circuits. Our optical fibers have a unique selling point in the conical fiber tip, which results in minimized tissue damage when the fiber is inserted into the brain. Thomas RECORDING optical fibers are made for chronic or acute optogenetic experiments in living animals. They can be implanted permanently or inserted for the duration of a single session. Furthermore these fiber are used for in-vitro applications like in lab settings to control neural activity in cell cultures or brain slices. Our optical fibers can be combined with microelectrodes or microelectrode arrays (fixed or moveable) for simultaneous stimulation and recording, enabling detailed studies of neural circuits.
