Combining membrane potential imaging with L-glutamate or GABA photorelease.

Combining membrane potential imaging using voltage sensitive dyes with photolysis of L-glutamate or GABA allows the monitoring of electrical activity elicited by the neurotransmitter at different sub-cellular sites. Here we describe a simple system and some basic experimental protocols to achieve th...
