APPENDIX 2. moorLDI/IONTOPHORESIS USER MANUAL V5
2.1 INTRODUCTION
This Appendix covers information specific to use of
moorLDI
laser Doppler imagers suitably
modified for running iontophoresis protocols.
For a general introduction to iontophoresis and the MIC1-e and MIC2 iontophoresis controllers, this
manual should be read in conjunction with the MIC1-e or MIC2 Iontophoresis Controller User
Guides.
The MIC1-e or MIC2 User Guide should be consulted regarding electrical safety: the
Warnings and Precautions should be read prior to use.
moorLDI
functions for the MIC1-e and MIC2 devices are similar:
moorLDI
protocol software
controls either device to output the required current during each scan period of a repeat scan set. The
MIC2 has the additional function to output iontophoresis voltage. This signal is acquired by
moorLDI
and can be used to calculate skin resistance.
2.2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF moorLDI / IONTOPHORESIS
2.2.1 Protocol Duration
The overall duration of
moorLDI
/ionto measurement protocol is determined by the Repeat Scan
number (max 105) and Interval. The required interval must exceed the scan duration (determined by
scan area and resolution; as set in the Scanner Setup window.
2.2.2 Period of Iontophoresis
Iontophoresis is timed to start and stop with increments equal to one or more scan intervals i.e.
iontophoresis starts at the start of one scan and stops just before the start of the next.
