Indirect stimulation of unstriated muscle

A preliminary communication

  • Published:
Proceedings / Indian Academy of Sciences

Summary

  1. (1)

    The excitation produced by vagus stimulation has an inhibitory component.

  2. (2)

    Tonus is antagonistic to vagus stimulation.

  3. (3)

    The optimum temperature for vagus stimulation is 30° C.

  4. (4)

    The optimum concentration of calcium is about 0·05-0·07 M CaCl, potassium about 0·06 M KCl and hydrogen ions, pH 7·8-7·4.

  5. (5)

    The stimulation produced by vagus and acetylcholine does not belong to the potassium group. It resembles more that produced by alternating current.
