Whole-Cell Voltage Clamp Recordings from <em>Drosophila</em> Photoreceptors
Source:  Katz, B., et al., Electrophysiological Method for Whole-cell Voltage Clamp Recordings from Drosophila Photoreceptors. J. Vis. Exp. (2017) The video demonstrates recording electrical activity in the photoreceptor neurons of Drosophila's ommatidium by establishing a whole-cell configuration. It highlights the activation of transient receptor potential channels by light pulses, resulting in measurable quantum bumps.
