Data underlying the publication: Microscale 3D-Printed Biocompatible, Soft Silicone Nerve Cuff for the Mouse Vagus Nerve Dataset

Tyler Currie, Robert McLeod, Richard Weir, Arjun Fontaine,
This dataset includes measurements for the Jacob’s Working Curve of BioRes-Silicone and electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings from in-vivo heart rate modulation experiments. For the Jacob’s Working Curve, three types of data were collected: (1) power readings obtained at the beginning of the experiment using a power meter; (2) exposure time which was set via MATLAB code (Mathworks); and (3) thickness measurement taken manually with a digital caliper (Neiko) capable of measuring to two decimal places. The Jacob’s Working Curve enables the use of BioRes-Silicone on other digital light processing (DLP) 3D-printing systems. The ECG data were collected from an adult ChAT-Cre (homozygous) × ChR2 (homozygous) mouse to observe heart rate reduction in response to blue light stimulation of channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) in the vagus nerve. Recordings were acquired using a PowerLab 2/26 bioamplifier (ADInstruments) and processed in LabChart software (ADInstruments). The final .txt file was exported directly from LabChart. These data confirm
