Hey JedKampe, There are numerous drugs and conditions that can cause a false positive for cocaine not to mention human error. Substances that can cause a false positive drug test result: Amoxicillin is an antibiotic in the penicillin group of drugs. It fights bacteria in your body. Ampicillin is another antibiotic similar to amoxicillin.
When the nerve is damaged,the action potential remains between the electrodes and doesn't reach the second electrode (i.e potential difference remains positive and doesn't go into negative phase) , the biphasic action potential changes into monophasic action potential i.e with single phase. Source(s):E: biphasic action potential change into the monophasic action? Why does the biphasic action potential change into the monophasic action potential after nerve injury between the two recording electrodes?
An excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) is a temporary depolarization of postsynaptic membrane potential caused by the flow of positively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. A postsynaptic potential is defined as excitatory if it makes it easier for the neuron to fire an action potential. They are the opposite of inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs), which usually result from the flow of negative ions into the cell. An Inhibitory Postsynaptic Potential (commonly abbreviated as IPSP) is the change in membrane voltage of a postsynaptic neuron which results from synaptic activation of inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors.
