A suspension system for Pyrex micro-electrodes is described. Stable intracellular recordings from single cells in the adenohypophysis of the rat and spinal motor neurons in the cat are obtained routinely with the use of this suspension system. The proximity of the rat adenohypophysis to brain result...
