Can Earthworm Action Potentials be recorded with the pod inputs instead of the Bioamp?

录制earth动作电位的首选协议使用内置的生物放大器T系列PowerLabs.
In our experience, the earthworm action potential protocol requires the additional amplification provided by this amplifier. Signal falls off at the square of the distance from the source; thus, additional amplification when using the intact prep is recommended.

Some customers have attempted to record the action potential using pod port input cables (MLA255或MLA285)附着在蠕虫中的针上,结果混合。如果您完全从蠕虫中解剖神经线并使用MLT016 Nerve Chamber,将神经放在腔室中,直接接触不锈钢线。注意:从earth记录的作用电位的幅度将明显小于坐骨神经的复合动作电位,来自青蛙或哺乳动物。

使用该协议MLA1203针电极and theMLA2540 Bio Amp Cableconnected to a teaching series PowerLab's Bio Amplifierprovides the best results.
