Comparison of electrical properties of ChR2 expressing neurons

Genotype Resting potential, mV Input resistance, MΩ Threshold, mV Action potential duration, ms Action potential amplitude, mV Action potential overshoot, mV
ChR2 −58.3 ± 1.8 126 ± 13 −29.6 ± 2.2 1.02 ± 0.11 93.4 ± 5.9 35.7 ± 1.2
ChR2+ −61.4 ± 1.4 110 ± 4.5 −35.4 ± 2.2 1.11 ± 0.09 99.5 ± 7.1 38.1 ± 0.2

Sample size is 10 cells for each group. There was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) in the mean value of any parameter between the two types of neurons.
