A concept of major importance in human electrophysiology studies is the process by which activation of an excitable cell results in a rapid rise and fall of the electrical membrane potential, the so-called action potential. Hodgkin and Huxley proposed a model to explain the ionic mechanisms underlying the formation of action potentials. However, this model is unsuitably complex for teaching pur...

Pressure-induced (streaming) potential and membrane potential across two ion-exchanger membranes (one positively charged and another negatively charged) have been measured with the membranes in contact with NaCl solutions at different salt concentrations. Membrane permselectivity was calculated from membrane potential and lower values were obtained for the cation-exchanger membrane. For compari...

in this paper, we have studied the electrical properties of the randomly distributed metallic (co and fe) nano/ micro wires on silicon substrate. deposition was carried out potentiostatically into the pores of the track-etch polycarbonate membrane spin coated onto the si substrate. spin coated films were irradiated with 150mev ni (+11) ions at a fluence of 8e7 ions/cm2, followed by uv irradiati...
