Summary
This is a whole-cell current clamp recording of a somatosensory cortical layer IV fast spiking - presumably spiny stellate - neuron taken from a 4 week old mouse brain slice. Spiking was evoked by a 100pA current injection. It was recorded using a K-gluconate filled, 2-4MΩ patch electrode. The data was acquired using an Axon multiclamp 700B, logged at 15kHz and filtered at low pass filtered at 3kHz. All experiments were conducted under the auspices of a local ethics counsel.
