Abstract
Analyses of inactivation experiments performed on unperfused axons of the squid have been compared with the predictions of the Hodgkin-Huxley and the Hoyt mathematical models for the early (sodium) conductance. The results are in good agreement with the latter and in disagreement with the former.
