(SIS) when used with SIS electrodes. The M250MA model can be used for liquid medication intophoresis, and for cell apoptosis stimulation. The M250/M250MA models are also designed for use as a nanoampere to low milliampere (M250MA only) constant current generators for non-medical, non-therapeutic, non-diagnostic, research, laboratory and experimental purposes, including Life Sciences, and water treatment.
SIS MACHINE M250/M250MA MODEL OPERATING MANUAL 1. POWER SOURCE The M250/M250MA is powered by replaceable AAA type batteries. Rechargeable batteries can be used and do not compromise the correct function of the device. Refer to section 15. DEVICE SPECIFICATIONS for further information.

Insert the two gold metal 'banana plugs' at the ends of the black and red wires of the electrode cable into the two white plastic connectors at the ends of the SIS electrode wires; insert the 'banana plugs' all the way in until they are no longer visible.
SIS MACHINE M250/M250MA MODEL OPERATING MANUAL 5. Infection treatments ! NOTE: The SIS machines M250/M250MA can be targeted at almost any infected anatomical structure or location. However, the devices cannot determine the type of microbe(s) present; standard diagnostics and differentiating information based on anatomical location, clinical signs, presentation and/or laboratory testing must be applied.
The M250 (M250MA) is a multirole microcurrent (and milliampere) electro- stimulator. If necessary, use the alligator clip adapters supplied with the SIS machine to convert the M250/M250MA electrode harness for connection to many other electrodes. Insert the gold 'banana plugs' at the ends of the black and red wires of the electrode harness into the plastic connector ends of the adapters.
SIS MACHINE M250/M250MA MODEL OPERATING MANUAL 7.4. TYPES OF ELECTRODES Many types of cutaneous or inserted electrodes can be used with the M250/M250MA, specific to the DC electrotherapy application.

High quality conductive electrotherapy gel can be applied to the silver-nylon surfaces (electrically active side) of the SIS electrodes before placing them on the skin, instead of the usual method of wetting these surfaces. In some instances, the conductive gel advantageously decreases the contributing electrical resistances of the electrode↔skin contact areas below the values achieved...

Turn Electrode Stimulation Efficiency (ESE) monitoring. Refer to section 7.3. for instructions. Use the alligator clip adapters supplied with the SIS machine to convert the terminals of the SIS electrode cable for connection to pure silver (Ag) metal rods. Immerse the two rods into the water at opposite edges of the water container.
Store the device in a dry place away from heat-generating sources. 13.3. SIS ELECTRODES The silver-nylon stimulation surface of an SIS electrode that has been applied only to normal intact skin can be cleaned by gently wiping with a clean damp cloth or cotton wool (use tap/other clean water) to remove dead skin cells, sweat and electro-chemical debris.
