Although patch clamp set-ups range from a simple rig to the most
elaborate patch clamp arrangements in which a large number of variables
are carefully controlled, there is a basic set of conditions that must be met
in all cases for patch clamping to work. These conditions will be discussed
in this Chapter. In brief, because patch clamping involves the placement of
a glass micropipette onto a cell to form a tight seal, the basic elements of a
set-up are
• a platform with minimal mechanical interference;
• a microscope for visualisation of the preparation;
• manipulators to position the micropipette;
• electronics to perform stimulation, recording and analysis in an
electrically clean environment.
These elements will be discussed in turn below.
