Summary
A description of a nerve-fibre chamber for measurements of noise voltage is given. By using open perfusion of the central channel inspection of the preparation is always possible. One of three test solutions can be chosen with a switch time of 10 sec. In addition temperature is controllable between 0 and 30°C.
