Skin Resistance/Conductance Electrode Paste

This electrode paste was specially formulated with 0.5% saline in a neutral base. Use with any of the standard or new premium Ag/AgCl reusable electrodes previously described. Unlike agar or saline pastes, this paste has a virtually unlimited shelf life. It is supplied in a 4 oz. bottle with a convenient flip top reclosable cap. Other gels and pastes are intended for EEG, ECG, EMG or other biopotentials. They are made of strongly hypertonic solutions specifically designed to depolarize the skin and to reduce skin resistance. The "Unibase" material called out by Lykken and Venables in Psychophysiology, 1971, pp. 665 - 666 no longer exists. The TD-246 Electrode Paste is a legitimate skin conductance paste that meets all the recommended specifications.
