The front-end low-noise electronic amplifiers and high-throughput computing systems made it possible to record ECG with a high resolution in the low-frequency range including the respiration and Mayer frequencies and to analyze ECG with digital filtering technique and harmonic analysis. These tools yielded ECG spectra of narcotized rats, which contained the characteristic pulsatile triplets and pentaplets with splitting constant equal to respiration rate, as well as the peaks at respiration and Mayer frequencies. The harmonic analysis of ECG determined the frequency parameters employed to tune the software bandpass filters, which revealed the respiratory (R) and Mayer (M) waves in the time domain with the amplitudes of 20-30 μV amounting to 5% ECG amplitude.

Fourier analysis was employed to determine the amplitudes of spectrum components of small variations of electrical resistance (bioimpedance) in human finger recorded using an original hardware-software complex. It revealed periodic bioimpedance oscillations at the frequencies of heartbeats, respiration, and Mayer wave (0.1 Hz).

The voltage across the cell membrane of human T-lymphocyte cell lines was recorded by the whole cell patch clamp technique. We studied how this voltage fluctuated in time and found that these fluctuations have fractal characteristics. We used the Hurst rescaled range analysis and the power spectrum of the increments of the voltage (sampled at 0.

It has been proposed that part of a voltage gated channel is a tethered ball and that inactivation occurs when this wandering ball binds to a site in the channel. In order to be able to quantitatively test this model by comparison to experiments we developed analytical solutions and numerical simulations of the distribution of times it takes the ball to reach the binding site when the motion of the ball is random and when it is also influenced by a directed force. If the motion of the ball is one-dimensional, at long times this distribution is a single exponential with a rate constant that is inversely proportional to the square of the length of the chain and does not depend on the starting position of the ball.
