Spike-forming model of the neural membrane: Improvement in the parameter values

Dean E Wooldridge 1
PMCID: PMC430522  PMID: 1065874

Abstract

A new set of values is presented for the reaction rate and ionic conductance parameters that determine the properties of the previously developed model of the neural membrane [Wooldridge, D.E. (1975) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 72, 3468-3471]. The resulting improvement in the extent of the agreement between theory and experiment is briefly described.

Keywords: membrane conductance, gates and channels, sodium pump, action potentials, voltage clamps
