Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patch clamping is a technique that allows the study of single ion channels by using a small glass pipette to clamp onto a cell membrane and record the electrical activity of individual ion channels. Micro sensors and electron sensors refer to more general sensing technologies and do not necessarily have the specificity to study single ion channels. Micro clamping and the electron microscope do not directly relate to the study of ion channels.
