Neuronal Correlates of Pitch in the Inferior Colliculus

Abstract

Responses of single units in Inferior Colliculus (IC) and Primary Auditory Cortex (AI) in the barbiturate- or ketamine-anesthetized ferret were recorded with single tungsten electrodes. Single-unit action potentials were recorded using glassinsulated tungsten microelectrodes with 5 to 6 megohm impedance. The recorded signals were led through amplifiers and filters. Depending on the paradigm, a stimulus was presented every few seconds, and raster plots with time resolution of up to 0.1 ms were produced.
