TRANSMISSION IN SQUID GIANT SYNAPSES : THE IMPORTANCE OF OXYGEN SUPPLY AND THE EFFECTS OF DRUGS
Synaptic transmission was studied in giant synapses of the stellate ganglion of the squid. When bathed in air-saturated sea water, the synapses deteriorate in 10 to 20 min.; if the sea water is saturated with 100 per cent oxygen, they function steadily for up to 12 hours. Optimal results probably r...
