Abstract
ABSTRACT To record extracellular nerve activity, wires or polyethylene suction electrodes are commonly used, which are modified according to particular experimental requirements. For electrophysiological studies in a dissected animal, a length of the nerve under investigation may be lifted on to silver wires (Pearon, Stein & Malhotra, 1972), or a fine wire hook (Wilkens & Wolf, 1974), often under mineral oil. These methods produce good records but the mineral oil and the wires around the nerve and its associate muscle reduce the visibility of the preparation. This may cause difficulties when simultaneous records are required from other parts of a small preparation.
