Abstract

This chapter reports the research into the effect of tip size on gigaseal formation. The approach adopted in the research includes, first, investigation on how the tip size affects the patch clamping, then a study on the surface properties of pipettes with different tip sizes and compare the seal resistances obtained by them, and finally verification of the conclusions using experiments.
