Synopsis

Electrical activity is central to the functioning and nature of neural cells and representative examples of useful techniques that have made this area a productive component of the neurosciences are provided here. Features of the book are convenient benchtop format and methods offering easy adaption to new systems. There are comprehensive protocols for cell recording - from conscious and freely behaving animals, measurement of calcium currents, and multiple electrodes; voltage clamping and voltammetry; apparatus and applications; specific ion channels and receptors; special electrodes and other equipment; special preparations - multicompartment cell cultures, grease-gap methods, perforated path techniques, giant proteoliposomes for reconstitution studies, microinjection. Information is also offered on data analysis and reduction.
