Abstract
The transient length response of the cat papillary muscle in Ba2+-contracture to stepwise tension reduction consisted of 4 different phases. This result is discussed in relation to the transient tension response of the same preparation observed in the previous length-clamp experiments.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
