Abstract

The thixotropic properties of single muscle fibres have been investigated. The effect is larger than in whole muscle and although the time course of stiffness recovery is generally similar, there is an indication that two phases may be involved. Rigor, induced chemically, eliminates thixotropic behaviour. © 1990 The Physiological Society
