An operative system for treatment of electropharmacological signals with a microprocessor.

We describe an operative system in BASIC language for data acquisition, storage and treatment of biological signals (action potential and transmembrane currents) in cardiac electropharmacology/physiology. The hardware includes a digital oscilloscope, a microprocessor, a X-Y Plotter and a disc unit. The operative system includes a main menu from which one can go directly to whatever program for data acquisition, storage, treatment and graphing.
