WinLTP is a stimulation, data acquisition and on-line analysis electrophysiology software program for studying Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) and similar synaptic phenomena, and uses patch-clamp and extracellular synaptic local field potential recording.  WinLTP is multitasking and simultaneously runs two tasks: 1) stimulus/acquisition sweeps, and 2) continuous acquisition saving Axon Binary Files. Central to the design of WinLTP is the Protocol Builder which can be used to generate complex induction stimulations.  WinLTP also has Automated Perfusion Control, which when coupled with the Protocol Builder, enables automated experiments to be run after a stable baseline has been achieved.

WinLTP is easy to use.  After installation, a single mouse click starts the baseline recording of an extracellular LTP experiment with averaging.  Another  single mouse click will evoke single train stimulation, theta burst stimulation, or Low Frequency Stimulation (for LTD induction).
