Has Minimal Synaptic Delay?

For electrical synapses, a minimal synaptic delay is present; as soon as a potential change is produced in the presynaptic terminal, a reflection of that potential change is produced in the postsynaptic cell.

What is a synaptic delay?

Synaptic delay is defined as the time interval between peak of inward current through the presynaptic membrane and commencement of inward current through the postsynaptic membrane. ... The synaptic delay at a single end-plate spot has a minimum value, at 20 °C, of 0.4 to 0.5 ms and a modal value of about 0.75 ms.
