Myocardial Monophasic Action Potential Recorded by Suction Electrode for Ionic Current Studies in Zebrafish

The study of myocardial transmembrane ion currents is fundamental to understand frequent pathologies such as arrhythmias and ischemia. Conventional electrocardiography (ECG) is not able to record ion currents, while the use of intracellular microelectrodes in a beating heart has technical limitations. Myocardial monophasic action potentials (MAPs) recorded with suction electrodes allow the evaluation of ionic currents similar to those recorded...
