ABSTRACT:
A system and method for automated patch clamp analysis of biological tissue such as cellular membrane. A biological membrane is applied to a porous semiconductor substrate, and laser energy is imparted thereon. Voltage clamped electrodes detect current across the membrane to indicate ion channel activity.
