Classical studies of the nervous system of the leech revealed that there were specific types of very large glial cells associated with various parts of the neuron. Recent microelectrode studies demonstrated that there was a low resistance to the flow charge from any one of these large glial cells to
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive microelectrodes were used to measure the intracellular pH (pH,) of neuropil glial cells and the pH of extracellular spaces (pH,) within isolated, intact ganglia of the leech Hirudo medicinalis. By application of a weak acid (propionate, 40 mM) or a weak base (ammonium,
