Isometric properties

N Tmax (mN/mm2) Passive tension (mN/mm2) Rigor tension (mN/mm2)
IFI 8 1.32 ± 0.12 2.0 ± 0.2 2.9 ± 0.2
IFI-3a 8 1.72 ± 0.22 2.6 ± 0.4 3.9 ± 0.3*
EMB 7 0.97 ± 0.20 0.7 ± 0.2 1.6 ± 0.3
EMB-3b 7 0.80 ± 0.07 0.9 ± 0.1 3.4 ± 0.7
IFI-2h 5 0.36 ± 0.05 1.1 ± 0.2 1.3 ± 0.2

Tmax = net active tension (gross active tension minus passive tension). Rigor tension = net rigor tension (gross rigor tension minus passive tension). All values are means ± SE.
