    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Instrumentation

    Background:

    • Cellular recordings require precise temperature control.
    • Existing cryoprobes can be expensive and difficult to adapt to complex biological structures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the construction and application of a novel, cost-effective cryoprobe.
    • To present an easily adjustable cooling instrument for neuroscience research.

    Main Methods:

    • Construction of a cryoprobe using readily available glass capillary tubes.
    • Adaptation of the probe for adjustable cooling of specific brain regions.
    • Integration with standard cellular recording setups.
