“…Thus extracellular recordings appear to have been made only with the electrode very close to the cell membrane. Extracellular impulses were typically positive-negative in shape, and previous authors have concluded that such impulses are characteristic of recording close to the cell membrane (Li, 1955;Mountcastle et al 1957).…”

“…In all experiments the posterior sigmoid cortex was chosen for study. The recording technique was similar to that previously described (Li, 1955). Glass microelectrodes of less than 0-5,u at the tip filled with 3M-KCI were used for the recording from the depth of the cortex.…”

“…The frequency of discharge remained unaltered, and there was a shift of the steady potential POTENTIALS FROM MAMMALIAN MUSCLE to negativity, indicating that the recording electrode probably had entered a muscle fibre and was recording what had previously been an extracellular diphasic potential from the other side of the surface membrane. The transformation of a diphasic spike into a monophasic one as the recording electrode impales the surface membrane has been demonstrated in cortical neurones (Li, 1955).…”
