Abstract
A meter which features direct readout of the capacitance of artificial lipid bilayer membranes is described. It is basically an ac ohmmeter that has been designed to minimize the commonly encountered series (solution) and input resistance errors. An accuracy of about 3% can be achieved for typical membrane capacitances of 10−3−10−1 μF.Keywords
