Constructing a patch clamp setup.
It should be obvious that there are many ways to construct clamp set-ups that are either equivalent or sufficient for the experiments planned. The hardware and electronics can be obtained from several manufacturers, as can analysis software. What we have presented here are guidelines primarily meant to point a new experimenter in the right direction and, we hope, to guide more experienced investigators toward techniques that can improve the resolution of their measurements.
