Description

Using the gold wire and cotton wick electrodes, the electroretinograms of mice and rats were measured, and then they were compared. The results obtained were as follows: 1) There were no remarkable differences in the latencies and amplitudes of a-and b-waves, amplitudes and numbers of waves of oscillatories between two different electrodes. 2) It was easy to make and maintain the gold wire electrode as compared with the cotton wick electrode. From these results, it appears that the gold wire electrode is useful for measuring the electroretinogram of small laboratory animals.
