Total Control in Patch-Clamp Micromanipulation means your
fingertip commands are instantly and precisely converted to smooth and
predictable pipette motion without drift. Only Burleigh piezoelectric
micromanipulators provide this capability because we use the solid-state
stability of piezoelectric (PZT) technology. PZT actuators are solid ceramic
structures that expand under applied voltage. When controlled by Burleigh’s
drive electronics and ergonomic control interface, extremely precise, fast,
stiff and stable positioning is easily achieved. The position of each PZT
actuator is determined by the DC voltage applied by the power supply.
Burleigh’s linear low-noise electronics and cables are fully shielded and
carefully grounded to produce negligible interference with your recordings.
Burleigh Instruments PCS-5000 Micromanipulators give you rapid, easy pipette
exchange. Two pivot stages allow the entire micromanipulator assembly to be
rotated forward. In the forward position, the headstage and pipette holder
are very accessible, making pipettes easy to remove and insert. After a new
pipette is installed, the micromanipulator assembly is rotated back to a
precise and repeatable position.
