Mounting equipment Experts in Electrophysiology & Imaging Motorised Movable Base Plate (MMBP)

Motorised Movable Base Plate Our Motorised Movable Base Plate (MMBP) is a large, low-level translation surface for electrophysiology and imaging. It offers smooth movement of the sample and manipulator. It has been designed to suit applications where the microscope must remain stationary and is ideal for users wishing to switch between in vitro and in vivo studies. Our MMBP overcomes space limitations imposed by in vivo, multi-photon or confocal equipment. A range of top plate sizes ensures trouble-free capability with all major microscope manufacturers. Large Mounting Area Our MMBP...

3 The MMBP in an in vivo setup including the LBM-7 and IVM, a PatchStar Micromanipulator and in vivo mounting plate.

Benefits A unique innovation developed in close collaboration with electrophysiologists, the MMBP is designed to be versatile and intuitive. It is simple to operate, but is packed with features that will improve your research efficiency and the quality of your recordings. Intelligent motorisation Our MMBP is designed to be compatible with upright microscopes from all major manufacturers. As detailed on page 9, differing sized top plates can be requested enabling trouble-free operation when using microscopes from; Olympus, Nikon, Zeiss and Leica. Our MMBP has been carefully engineered to...

Convenient sliding carriages Future Proof Accessories As well as featuring a tapped hole pattern (for attaching equipment around your sample) the MMBP’s slots accept lockable sliding carriages (three supplied) - usually used for mounting micromanipulators. For in vitro use, the MMBP is shipped with a short post and platform sample plate holder with perfusion accessories. Accepting standard 108 and 110 mm chamber adaptors, this provides excellent flexibility of positioning and sample height. This unique mounting system offers unrestricted freedom of movement in order to precisely position...
