Precision alignment ensures accurate placement of electrodes, micropipettes and other devices. It is ideal for researchers in need of a versatile, reliable instrument for stereotaxic procedures with small animals. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manipulator arm controls mediolateral and vertical positioning via lead screws with 80 mm of travel. This allows the fastest positioning possible, consistent with lining up the scales easily at a given coordinate. The anteroposterior movement is controlled via a dovetail slide movement, with 80 mm of travel possible in each direction. A universal joint allows the investigator to change the angle of the probe up to 90° in either the anteroposterior or mediolateral planes. The locking mechanism will hold any angle position without drift or creep. It also provides an absolute lock at 90° vertical. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll scales are oriented to be read easily from the open end of the “U.” This is the position from which most scientists prefer to work. The numerals on the scales are clear and easy to read. Precise alignment with facing Vernier scales gives accurate resolution to 0.1 mm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe entire stereotaxic frame, including the dovetails, manipulator arms and base are electrically continuous. Grounding of the entire frame including the base plate can be accomplished by connecting the provided grounding stud to earth. This is ideal for electrophysiological studies where the animal and surrounding structures need to be grounded to reduce electrical noise. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigital Stereotaxic versions features sealed electronic sensors and an easy-to-read LCD display with 10-micron resolution in all three axes. A zeroing function aids in targeting specific coordinates. The battery-powered display is electronically quiet, making it useful in electrophysiology experiments as well as keeping the workbench
