Our site is a practical guide to microiontophoresis and extracellular electrophysiology. These techniques are used in neuroscience research to test the effects of neuroactive substances on single nerve cells or to deposit dyes or tract-tracer materials in the nervous system for subsequent histological analysis. We hope to provide the interested with the knowledge and equipments crucial to such high quality experimentation.
