Selective activation of primary afferent fibers evaluated by sine-wave electrical stimulation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Transcutaneous sine-wave stimuli at frequencies of 2000, 250 and 5 Hz (Neurometer) are thought to selectively activate Aβ, Aδ and C afferent fibers, respectively. However, there are few reports to test the selectivity of these stimuli at the cellular level. In th...
