The dependence of the contractile force generated by frog auricular trabeculae upon the external calcium concentration

1. A method is described by which the solutions bathing single auricular trabeculae, isolated from the heart of the frog, can be rapidly altered while the tension generated and the membrane potential can be measured simultaneously.
