Monophasic Action Potential

Use the MCE100C amplifier module to record the MAP signal and use the Macintosh version of AcqKnowledge to automate the analysis process. The software performs classification of MAP data acquired from a human or animal subject and extracts various cycle by cycle intervals. The software scores the waveform to identify the appropriate points of the signal, measures the data, plots the results and exports them to a spreadsheet. Locates upstroke, maximum, 100% recovery, and user-specified recovery points on the action potential.

The analysis outputs the following information on a cycle-by-cycle basis and the textual output cites the average of all of the cycle-by-cycle values:

Name Abbrev.
100% recovery period 100% REC
dV/dt Maximum dV Max
dV/dt Minimum dV Min
End diastolic voltage EDV
Maximum voltage MAX
Minimum voltage MIN
Plateau voltage PLAT
Rate
Stroke amplitude AMP
User recovery period % REC

Effort & Motivation: Using a Hand Dynamometer in the MRI and in the Lab

Many studies use hand dynamometry to objectively quantify exerted effort during experiments most commonly related to the study of motivation.
We’ll focus on this topic and go over everything you need to know to record dynamometry data in the MRI or in the lab. Topics include
– Calibrating for maximum voluntary contraction (MVC)
– Real-time access to the dynamometer signal by third-party applications
– How researchers have used this equipment
– Creating a visual task that gives feedback on exerted effort as well as rewards to the participant
