| Abstract | A synapse is an intercellular junction specialized for an electrochemical information process between presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons. At the chemical synapses, chemical neurotransmitters released from presynaptic membrane bind to receptors on the membrane of opposed postsynaptic neurons. The act of neurotransmitters not only instantly determines the types of neuronal signal, excitatory and inhibitory, but alters the genetic environments for long-term memory construction. As such, studies on neurotransmitters and the event of their release are essential to the understanding of neural function and plasticity in the brain. Electrochemical tools are powerful and suitable for the investigation of neural systems. Two major branches of electrochemical method, amperometry and fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV), are actively evolving for the detection of neurotransmitters in extreme conditions. Consequently, novel electrode materials and geometrical designs have been developed to overcome the limitations of selectivity and lifetime of the electrodes. Wireless and implantable systems have been developed for in vivo experiments. This review will focus on electroanalytical approaches for the direct measurement of the electrooxidizable neurotransmitters, while envisaging possibilities of synapse-based neural interfaces. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
