[Selective electric-current inhibition of signals from the C fibers in nerve fiber microbundles: a method for identifying A and C afferents].
Direct electric current of 3 microA applied through platinum electrode during 10 s to a fine strand teased mechanically from saphenous nerve, inhibits selectively C-fibre spikes in the strand and does not inhibit A-fiber spikes. The selective inhibition of C-fibers spikes in a fine strand is proposed as a method to identify a type of a single nerve fiber.
