An analog-digital feedback system for measuring photoreceptor properties with an equal response method.

Abstract:

:This paper describes a feedback system in which a neutral density wedge automatically controls the light flux applied to a photoreceptor, so that an intracellular recorded response is held constant. We describe here a "differential sampler" that subtracts the photoreceptors dark response from the light response induced by a chopped light source. The resulting signal drives the feedback system. The response time of the feedback system can be adjusted with a "digital integrator" to match a range of variable conditions that occur in different experiments.

  • Kinetic analysis of striatal clearance of exogenous dopamine recorded by chronoamperometry in freely-moving rats.

    abstract::Previously, we developed technology that coupled high-speed chronoamperometry with microejections of dopamine (DA) to measure DA clearance in the brains of freely-behaving rats. Here, by varying the ejection volumes of DA across a 200-fold difference, the kinetics of striatal clearance were analyzed as a function of t...
