The apparatus for Impact experiments, which was exhibited to the Society on 20th February 1888, has been greatly improved by the substitution of a very true slab of plate-glass, thinly covered with printing-ink, for the sheet of cartridge paper. The record is made by a needle-point which projects from the falling body, and which is kept in constant contact with the plate by means of a light spring. The time of rotation of the plate is given by a tuning-fork, with a small bristle attached, which is kept in vibration by a periodic current, and records alongside of the other tracings.

Abstract A new method is described which allows to image the steady-state distribution of m em ­ brane potential of single neurons in situ. The method consists of staining the tissue with an extracellular voltage-sensitive dye (Di-4-ANEPPS) and impaling a single neuron with a microelectrode. After focusing the imaging system onto the cell a large series of images are taken with a CCD camera at the appropriate excitation wavelength of the voltage-sensitive dye while the neuron’s membrane potential is shifted by a periodic current injection (PCI). Afterwards two groups of images are averaged separately: those images while the cell was at rest and those images while the cell was hyperpolarized. After subtraction of these averaged images, the resulting difference image shows only the membrane potential of the cell which was altered periodically. The success of the method is demonstrated on leech cells in intact ganglia. If applied to cells with a basically two-dimensional arborization pattern, the decrease of activity in the difference image in areas further away from the injection site should relate to a decrease in membrane potential according to the passive electrotonic properties of the cell under study.
