    Patch Clamp01:18

    Patch Clamp

    Many fundamental cell functions such as muscle contraction and nerve transmission rely on the electrical signals produced by the movement of positively and negatively charged ions across the cell membrane. One competent method to record current flowing across the whole cell or single ion channel is the patch-clamp technique.
    In this method, a glass micropipette containing electrolyte solution is tightly sealed against a small portion of the cell membrane. As a result, a patch of the cell...

    Energy Diagrams - II

    Energy diagrams are important to understand the dynamics of a system. The topology of an energy diagram helps illustrate the equilibrium points of the system.
    The point in the energy diagram at which the system’s potential energy is the lowest is known as the local minima. The system tends to stay in this position indefinitely unless acted upon by a net force. The slope of the potential energy diagram at the local minima is zero, indicating that zero net force is acting on the system. The slope...

    Voltammograms: Overview

    Voltammograms are current plots as a function of applied potential, offering insights into electrochemical systems. The shape of a voltammogram depends on how the current is measured and whether convection (heat transfer by fluid movement) is present or absent.

    Cell Diagrams and IUPAC Conventions

    Electrochemical cell notation is a standardized symbolic representation that communicates the structure and reaction pathway of galvanic and electrolytic cells. This notation plays a critical role in describing redox reactions and electrochemical cell configurations without the need for detailed diagrams.In electrochemical cell notation, a single vertical line “|” denotes a phase boundary, such as between a solid electrode and an aqueous solution. A double vertical line “||” represents a salt...

    Applications of EMF Measurements

    Electromotive force (EMF) measurements have a broad range of applications in various fields, including chemistry and physics. The electrochemical series, an arrangement of elements in order of their standard electrode potentials, can be determined through EMF measurements. Elements with lower standard potentials can reduce ions of elements with higher standard potentials.The standard cell potential, E°, allows for the calculation of the standard reaction Gibbs energy, ΔG°, and the equilibrium...
