Abstract
THE Hodgkin–Huxley1 (HH) formulation is an analytical description of a squid axon membrane from which nearly all of the classical physiological properties of an axon can be computed, but few investigators have gone through the tedious analysis of step voltage clamp data to obtain the HH parameters from their data.
