THIXOTROPY: STIFFNESS RECOVERY RATE IN RELAXED FROG MUSCLE

M. Lakie 1 and Lesley G. Robson 1

1 Department of Biology and Preclinical Medicine, Bute Medical Buildings, University of St Andrews, Fife KY] 6 9TS

The stiffness of relaxed frog muscle is affected by its previous history of movement. The extent of this thixotropic effect is dependent on the size of the applied force (Lakie & Robson, 1988). The stiffness recovery following movement has now been studied at two temperatures, and has been shown to proceed at a logarithmically declining rate.
