pClamp 10

Conventional Electrophysiology Data Acquisition and Analysis Software

Axon / Molecular Devices


The pCLAMP 10 software suite fulfills many different experimental needs, such as synchronized stimulation, event detection, and online analysis. It is the most widely-used data acquisition and analysis program for the control and recording of voltage-clamp, current-clamp, and patch-clamp experiments. Three separate programs are included: Clampex 10, AxoScope 10, Clampfit 10.

Clampex 10 expands the range and quality of your data acquisition experiments. These improvements should prove useful for a wide variety of applications, allowing more flexibility in your experimental protocols. 


New features include:
• Membrane Test calculates Ra and Cm per sweep during a recording
• Membrane and Seal Tests combined into a single resizable window
• Support for four stimulus waveforms (with the Digidata 1440A)
• Control of eight digital outputs per epoch during a sweep
• Control of split-clock sampling per epoch during a sweep
• Leak subtraction automatically saves both raw and   corrected traces

• All protocol durations are entered in time units
• Support of the new Digidata 1440A digitizer
• Support of the new Axoclamp 900A amplifier
• New ABF 2.0 file format 

Existing functionality includes the ability to automate the execution of protocols, a variety of recording modes from continuous to waveform stimulation, online filtering and leak subtraction, and online statistics/graphs.

AxoScope 10 provides a convenient way to produce background recordings with the included MiniDigi 2-channel digitizer. You can monitor cells during intra-sweep periods, or create an overview of the entire day's activities including voice tags.

Clampfit 10 is a powerful solution for analyzing, graphing and layout of all of your Clampex and AxoScope data. Clampfit includes an extensive array of filtering and fitting routines. Functionality includes I-V graphs, power spectrums, and special "linked data views" for threshold (AP), template (minis) and single-channel modes of event detection and analysis. 

pCLAMP 10 is suitable for a wide variety of applications, ranging from electrophysiology to general physiology, from individual cells to networked cells, and from low-noise patch clamping to high-speed sodium channels.
