Neurotoxicity assays?

Greetings, all.
    I am a graduate student at Western Washington University and I'm trying
to track down some protocols for assaying neurotoxicity. Prefereably, I'd
like to utilize some form of nerve fascicle assay (ease of dissection and
electrode connection). But whole-cell electrode assays are not impossible at
my school, it seems.
    I have had a bear of a time trying to find literature on the basics, and
would appreciate any pointers! The understanding of a local terrestrial
gastropod hangs on this research. Did that sound like an important enough
reason to try the research? heh heh heh.
