“…Furthermore, we found that Archon1 (red emission) and ASAP3b (green emission) are suitable for monitoring fast action potentials in individual cells, with ASAP being a slightly brighter and more forgiving probe. Our current data are potentially useful for guiding the practical choice of a GEVI indicator depending on the following: (1) biological application (e.g., cell body action potential; Abdelfattah et al, 2019); cell body UP state-a sustained ;20 mV depolarization (Adam et al, 2019;Villette et al, 2019), dendritic back-propagating action potential (Gong et al, 2015;Adam et al, 2019), dendritic subthreshold depolarization (Kwon et al, 2017), compound excitatory synaptic potential (Storace and Cohen, 2017;Song et al, 2018), and compound inhibitory (hyperpolarizing) synaptic potential (Nakajima and Baker, 2018);…”
