You are recording from a neuron under voltage clamp to evaluate whether a new chemical "achematoxin" has any effect on the nervous system. You step the command voltage to +15 mV and find that there is a capacitative current and a robust, delayed late current. What effect, if any, do you suspect achematoxin has on neurons? Explain your answer.
