Introduction
The Conduct Science Stereotaxic instrument uses landmarks on the surface of the animal’s skull (such as the Bregma ) as basic reference points and determines the position of a neural structure (brain region) through the directional movement of a three-dimensional manipulator arm. The device can then be used to perform injections, stimulations, impairment, guided positioning and other operations on the specific brain region . This device can also be used in conjunction with optogenetics, two-photon, endogenous brain imaging, fiber optic recording, electrophysiology and other systems.

- Reading accuracy: Standard version, accuracy 0.1MM, i.e. 100um. Digital version, accuracy 0.01MM, i.e. 10um.
- Movement range: 80MM
- One click position change from bregma position to return to zero.
- Single 1.5V battery DC power supply, no electronic interference, suitable for electrophysiological experimental environments
- Can be equipped with different clamping devices such as electrodes, injection needles, cannulas, optical fibers, etc.
- The head fixation kits (ear bars and adapters) for different animals can be directly disassembled, installed, and replaced.
- The screw rotation operation maintains the traditional operating habits (clockwise forward, counterclockwise backward).
Technical Features
1
The three-dimensional operating arm is designed with a concentric directional transmission mechanism to maintain the consistency and accuracy of the transmission direction.
2
The operating arm replaces the traditional metal-to-metal "hard grinding" transmission (which wears fast) and adopts the combination of screw rod and rolling mechanism to maintain the stability and accuracy of the coordinate axis over time.
3
Key components such as transmission screws and thread sleeves are molded to ensure stability and uniformity when in use.
4
The use of connecting joints greatly reduces errors caused by multiple joint connections and improves stability.
5
The screw drive fixes the head, front teeth, nose bridge, and ear canal, which makes the adjustment smooth and precise, reducing the tedious operation steps of head fixation.
