Abstract(in English) For the measurement of minute temperature variation as a "secondary signal" which is resulted from neural action in the barrel receptive field of rat primary sensory cortex, we tried to develop micro-thermocouple which is secured in the fine glass capillary. Type E thermocouple, of which thermoelectric power was typically 60 μ V/℃, is used. Developed micro-thermocouple has tip sensing junction of approximately 60μm diameter and typical resistance of the wire is about 200Ω. Responsed rise time of the micro-thermocouple is measured as about 100 ms. It was estimated that this micro-thermocouple might be able to use the measurement of temperature change relevant to the level of reginal brain energy metabolism.
