Journal of Neurophysiology (1999) 82:382-397. - Introduction to the origin of biopotentials 56.4 Mb AVI movie. Developed by Matt Flagg, an undergraduate Computer Science major.
- catabf-1.0.tgz CATABF – a UNIX command line program for writing the channels of an Axon Instruments’ .abf file to stdout. Also can output raw integer ADC data and print file info (channel names, units, sampling rate, file length). Currently only supports ClampEx 8.X (header format 1.65), may work on versions 6 and 7. Tested so far on Mac OSX, Sun Solaris, and Intel/Linux.
