Lability of the prolonged depolarizing afterpotential in Balanus photoreceptors

A large cell to cell variability of the prolonged depolarizing afterpotential (PDA) decay time constant (tau) has been measured in Balanus eberneus lateral ocelli. While 25% of the cells had PDA's of long duration, tau greater than 10 min. 45% of the cells tested showed either weak (tau less th...
