Materials analyses and electrochemical impedance of implantable metal electrodes.
Implantable electrodes with high flexibility, high mechanical fixation and low electrochemical impedance are desirable for neuromuscular activation because they provide safe, effective and stable stimulation. In this paper, we report on detailed materials and electrical analyses of three metal implantable electrodes - gold (Au), platinum (Pt) and titanium (Ti) - using X-ray photoelectron spectr...
متن کاملMechanical behaviour of implantable electrodes
A team of materials scientists is supporting the development of Networked Implantable Neuroprostheses (NNPS) Systems on an NIHBioengineering Research Partnership. The Materials Group is leading the material and structural evaluation, analysis, and testing of implantable electrodes and interconnects that form part of the NNPS. Currently the potential use of silver cored Drawn Filled Tube (DFT) c...
متن کاملPossibilities offered by implantable miniaturized cuff-electrodes for insect neurophysiology
Recent advances in microsystems technology led to a miniaturization of cuff-electrodes, which suggests these electrodes not just for long-term neuronal recordings in mammalians, but also in medium-sized insects. In this study we investigated the possibilities offered by cuff-electrodes for neuroethology using insects as a model organism. The implantation in the neck of a tropical bushcricket re...
متن کاملEvaluation of MEMS materials of construction for implantable medical devices.
Medical devices based on microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) platforms are currently being proposed for a wide variety of implantable applications. However, biocompatibility data for typical MEMS materials of construction and processing, obtained from standard tests currently recognized by regulatory agencies, has not been published. Likewise, the effects of common sterilization techniques o...
متن کاملProtein adsorption on materials for recording sites on implantable microelectrodes.
Implantable microelectrodes have the potential to become part of neural prostheses to restore lost nerve function after nerve damage. The initial adsorption of proteins to materials for implantable microelectrodes is an important factor in determining the longevity and stability of the implant. Once an implant is in the body, protein adsorption takes place almost instantly before the cells reac...
