Figure 3. The time course of contraction patterns seen in duodenum (Duo) and jejunum (Jej) during a prolonged exposure to decanoic acid.

Figure 3

A shows a spatiotemporal map of the duodenum starting 25 min after infusing decanoic acid (1 mm) into the lumen. Note, episodes of contractions (white areas) are separated by similar duration periods of quiesence. A similar pattern is seen in B, which shows a map of the jejunum under identical conditions.
