Abstract
An inexpensive instrument is described for isolating single units from the population response of a nerve bundle. The isolation technique, based on the different conduction latencies between two recording sites exhibited by different neural fibers, permits single unit observations in real time without complex computer programming. Excellent separation can be obtained in preparations of six to eight neurons.
