Effects Of Different Concentrations Of Monensin On The Contractilitychanges Of Guinea-Pig Papillary Muscle, İsmail Meral
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Effects of different concentrations of monensin on contraction amplitude (CA) which is the contraction force (CF), initial contraction velocity (ICV), average contraction velocity (ACV) and initial relaxation velocity (IRV) of guinea-pig papillary muscle were studied by using male guinea-pigs. Hearts were removed and papillary muscles were isolated from the right ventricles. The muscles were then attached to a capacitance transducer, electrically connected to a Beckman recorder and the isometric contractions of guinea-pig papillary muscles were recorded. The five hours of measurement in this experiment were divided into five periods (T0 was equilibration, T1, T2, T3 and T4 were respectively one, …
