NuPrep - skin preparation, granular, high conductivity EEG and ECG gel - 114g
Nuprep gel is an abrasive gel for use in the preparation of electrode insertion. The small granules of the gel gently prepare the skin before electrode application, removing excess fat and smoothing the surface. This helps to improve the conductivity of the skin during EEG signal recording and increases the recording efficiency.
Nuprep is an abrasive dermabrasive gel that is excellent for improving skin conductivity.
Nuprep is an abrasive* skin preparation gel for improving skin conductivity during electromedical tests such as EEG, EP or ECG
(*abrasive = cleaning effect by rubbing with hard particles).
Nuprep provides optimal conductivity between electrode and skin.
By using Nuprep you can achieve lower measurement resistances.
Thanks to its physical properties, Nuprep gel can be used to perform EEG studies and record long-term EEG, evoked potentials, nerve conduction velocities and ECGs.
It improves skin conductivity and thus ensures optimal and rapid reduction of transient resistances during EEG, EP and ABR studies.
Pastes and gels for EEG, ECG and sleep studies.
Electrode pastes and gels used for skin preparation are used to reduce impedance when in contact with the skin, and as conductive and adhesive paste for electrode attachment for routine EEG, long-term EEG, long-term video EEG, epilepsy EEG and sleep EEG/PSG testing.

Medical gels and pastes used for EEG, ECG, sleep diagnostics and EP studies serve three main purposes: skin preparation, electrode application and signal conduction.
1, Skin preparation
Dead skin cells, dirt, sweat and grease cause high transmission impedances, sometimes up to several megaohms (M Ω), between the skin and the electrode. Reducing this transfer impedance is essential for optimal measurement.
The AASM recommends an impedance below 5 kiloOhms (5 k Ω) and therefore the skin should be cleaned to achieve stable electrical contact and low transient impedance. A preparation gel such as Nuprep is used to clean the skin and achieve the optimal impedance. In case of very oily skin, alcohol wipes (e.g. isopropanol) can also be used to degrease the skin.
2, Conductivity and adhesion
To ensure stable and reliable conduction, electrodes (e.g. Gold Cup electrodes) should be fixed after skin cleansing. For this purpose adhesive/conductive pastes or gels (e.g. Lic2 , EC2 and Ten20) are used. These are of different thicknesses and are applied depending on the type of study (routine or long term lead) and the electrode (gold, Ag/AgCl cup electrodes or EEG system caps).
3, Pastes and gels for skin preparation
By default, Nuprep is recommended for skin preparation. The gel is also recommended for sensitive skin, as no skin irritation occurs during application. Nuprep does not contain latex, either as an ingredient or in the packaging. In addition, latex-free gloves are used in the manufacturing process to eliminate contamination. Nuprep is used to clean the skin, reduce impedance and improve conduction in the following tests:
EEG tests
Sleep diagnostics and sleep screening
Long-term ECG and short-term ECG
Evoked potential (EP) testing
Cardiac catheter monitoring
ECG telemetry
Cardiac stress testing
Cardiac rehabilitation monitoring
Intraoperative monitoring
Other skin preparation gels, such as Everi and Skin-Pure, are also used for EEG, EMG, EP, ECG and sleep studies.
Glue and conductive paste for EEG testing and sleep diagnostics
Adhesive and conductive pastes are used to fix electrodes (e.g. gold cup electrodes, silver-silver chloride cup electrodes (Ag/AgCl cup electrodes) or silver cup electrodes) during routine and long-term leads:
Electroencephalogram (EEG)
Electroneurography (ENG)
Brain mapping
Evoked potential (EP) testing
Neurofeedback
Sleep diagnostics and sleep screening (PG and PSG)
Multiple sleep latency test (MSLT)
