k (mV/e-fold shift) 9.02 +/− 2.25 (N=14) 8.66 +/− 1.46 (N=19)
Tfast inactivation at 50 mV 17.95 +/− 20.37 (N=16) 9.86 +/− 9.75 (N=20)
% cells Tfast < 6 ms 25% (N=16) 55% (N=20)

Whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings were performed on neurons in primary cultures grown for 2–4 days after embryonic dissociation. Voltage protocols applied for analyzing times to peak, inactivation, and steady-state inactivation are described in the text. Averages, standard deviations, and number of cells (N) are shown.
