Abstract
No physiological interference is produced by dark heat or invisible rays with the exciting action of ultra-violet on involuntary muscle. The action of ultra-violet rays antagonizes that of adrenalin on in-voluntary muscle, but not that of emetin. The presence of Ca in the nutritive fluid is necessary for the increase of tone produced by ultra-violet rays.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
