Abstract
[long dash]The review is a critical appraisal of the use of techniques and concepts developed for the study of skeletal muscle, primarily the work done with isolated heart papillary muscle. Influence of catecholamines, cardiac glycosides, and Ca and Na concentrations were discussed.This publication has 54 references indexed in Scilit:
