7Basic Biophysics or Neurobiology courses encounter problems when start-8 ing their practices due to the complexity and high cost of the equipment. As 9 a consequence, these experiences are replaced by simulation software, leading 10 students to boredom and disinterest, and finally to the lack of understanding 11 of the basic principles of the phenomenon observed. Classical nerve conduc-12 tion studies for the visualization of action potentials are an example of this, 13 being able to be developed with simple and low-cost amplification circuits, 14 as described in this article. The system showed stability, expected ampli-15 fication and high signal-to-noise ratio. The action potential of the medial 16 giant fiber (MGF) as lateral giant fiber (LGF) in the ventral nerve cord of 17 the earthworms Lumbricus terrestris was recorded. The experimental system 18 has met expectations and regains practical, effective and stimulating learning 19 for students. 20 potentials (AP) [1]. Because most of the nerve fibers are extremely small, AP 27 records were initially performed on giant squid axons (Loligo forbesi), but ob-28 taining them is difficult because of their geographic and seasonal availability, 29 leading to the search for other animals with the same feature. 30 In general, invertebrates, such as earthworms, have larger nerve cords 31 than other taxonomic groups, facilitating conduction studies in the nervous 32 system,[2],[3]. These one have a ventral nerve cord large enough to be used 33 in classical electrophysiology studies [2],[4],[5],[6],[7],[8],[9]. 34 On the other hand, most AP records published are made with high-cost 35 amplification equipment, making it difficult to access these types of practical 36 studies by replacing them with virtual experiments through software, causing 37 students to feel bored and disinterested in difficult to learn. Nowadays it is 38 possible to find electronic components of low cost for the implementation of 39 this type of amplifier. Traditional action potential recording systems require 40 basic electronic equipment such as an oscilloscope, a stimulator (eg grass 41 stimulator), an amplifier, a low-pass filter, and a data acquisition system. 42 Also, we need a suction electrode and a micro-manipulator. All of this high-43 cost equipment except the suction electrode. 44 Recent efforts by some authors [8],[7], in the earthworm AP record, used 45 relatively inexpensive equipment with invasive or non-invasive systems and 46 with or without electrical stimulation, obtaining records without good res-47 olution and with associated noise. The complete setup configuration is im-48 portant for good records and it is difficult to dispense equipment such as 49 oscilloscope or acquisition systems with an adequate sampling rate.50
