The electrode resistance values were measured to confirm that the electrodes were electrically isolated and that the apertures were open. Figure 6 shows a macro-patch recording obtained when a devitellinized oocyte, expressing Shaker potassium channels, was dropped onto an aperture. The ionic currents carried by a population of 80 Shaker channels were measured in response... 

Another variation of the technique is the so-called macro-patch [26]. It consists of the formation of a cell-attached patch using large tip pipettes (0.3-1 MQ) to record macroscopic current on a limited region of a very large cell. It is extensively used for recording currents from Xenopus oocytes injected with mRNA coding ionic channels.

The pavement surface texture, that is, surface macro-texture, can be determined in terms of MTD, using a volumetric technique (sand patch method), or in terms of MPD, using laser sensor devices.

Suppose the coarse grid corresponding to the macro-contact solution has nodes. In the microcontact solution, each of these nodes corresponds to a rough surface patch discretized by an grid. The average pressure po and the average gap ho over the entire patch are ...
