    Notes: Summary Endolymphatic potential (EP) and intracellular resting potentials (RPs) in the cochlea of the alligator lizard were measured with micropipets. The EP (defined as the dc electric potential recorded between the endolymph in scala media and the perilymph in scala tympani or scala vestibuli) had a mean value of +16 mV (in 96 ears). The RPs (defined as the de potentials recorded between the intracellular and perilymphatic spaces) were different in the distal portion of the cochlear nerve (range to-56 mV, mean of −23 mV in 158 cells) from those in the region of the basilar papilla (range to-154 mV, mean of-73 mV in 623 cells). In identified cells in the region of the basilar papilla, the mean values of RPs of hyaline epithelial cells (-113 mV in 7 cells) and supporting cells (-93 mV in 13 cells) were more negative than of hair cells (-73 mV in 5 cells). Differences in measured RPs could reflect differences in the resting potentials of these cells and/or their source resistances. RPs measured in the basilar papilla of the alligator lizard are compared with those obtained in other vertebrate hair cell organs.

    Notes: Abstract We describe a software library that we have developed to teach biophysics and physiology to undergraduate engineering and science students as well as to medical students. The library, which is under development, now includes software on: (1) the Hodgkin-Huxley model for excitation of action potentials in electrically excitable cells (such as nerve and muscle cells); (2) a random-walk model of diffusion; (3) single voltage-gated ion channels; (4) steady-state chemically mediated transport; and (5) macroscopic diffusion processes. The software is used in a variety of ways: as an integral part of lectures, as the basis of special sessions held in electronic classrooms, as a source of homework assignments, and for special projects defined by the students. We describe the software and some of the pedagogic methods we have used.
