patch clamp
noun1
Biology, Natural sciences A device used to measure the ion currents in individual living cells.
- We have shown that the extracellular patch clamp can be reliably used to detect extremely small currents flowing through biological membranes.1978 July, Erwin Neher, Bert Sakmann, Joe Henry Steinbach, “The Extracellular Patch Clamp: A Method for Resolving Currents through Individual Open Channels in Biological Membranes”, in Pflügers Archiv, volume 375, →DOI:
