When performing electrocorticography, reliable recordings of bioelectrical signals are essential for signal processing and analysis. The acquisition of cellular electrical activity from the brain surface of mice requires a system that is able to record small signals within a low frequency range. This work presents a recording system with self-developed software and shows the result of a technical characterization in combination with self-developed electrode arrays to measure electrocorticograms of mice.
