SIMULTANEOUS POLAROGRAPHIC AND ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL INVIVO MEASUREMENTS THROUGH OPTOELECTRONIC INTERCONNECTION

It is shown that simultaneous pickup of polarographic and electrophysiological signals, which is usually prevented by a severe electrical interference, becomes possible when the polarograph is connected to its electrodes via an optoelectronic link. The sources of interference in simultaneous measurements are discussed, as well as the advantage of breaking the ground loop. Reported experimental data show that the simultaneous signals have the same quality as if separately detected.
