Abstract

The effects of uniform steady state (DC) extracellular electric fields on neuronal excitability were characterized in rat hippocampal slices using field, intracellular and voltage-sensitive dye recordings. Small electric fields (1 s) changes in neuronal excitability. Electric fields perpendicular to...
