Action Potential Parameters Affecting Excitation-Contraction Coupling

In quantifying type B potentiation effects, given earlier merely qualitatively, it is found that Zn2+, 1—50 µM, causes increases in action potential duration, twitch tension, and twitch contraction period time, which are all directly proportional to the log of the concentration. Hence, the duration...
