Hey JedKampe, There are numerous drugs and conditions that can cause a false positive for cocaine not to mention human error. Substances that can cause a false positive drug test result: Amoxicillin is an antibiotic in the penicillin group of drugs. It fights bacteria in your body. Ampicillin is another antibiotic similar to amoxicillin.
When the nerve is damaged,the action potential remains between the electrodes and doesn't reach the second electrode (i.e potential difference remains positive and doesn't go into negative phase) , the biphasic action potential changes into monophasic action potential i.e with single phase. Source(s):E: biphasic action potential change into the monophasic action? Why does the biphasic action potential change into the monophasic action potential after nerve injury between the two recording electrodes?
An action potential is a transient change in the membrane potential that conveys information in the nervous system and initiates contraction in muscle. Action potentials normally spread or propagate without decrement in amplitude or change of shape in any particular cell or tissue.
