Effects of tissue glues on electrical activity in isolated nerve.
The effect of tissue glues--Tissucol and Histoacryl--on the action potentials in isolated frog nerve was studied by means of a single gap arrangement. Tissucol injected into the gap increased the action potential amplitude, whereas Histoacryl abolished the electrical activity. This glue-gap method can be applied in tests with new tissue glues.
