Table 1.

Vo (slack tests) recorded early during the rising phase and during the plateau of two closely spaced tetani

Tetanus 1 Tetanus 2


Early rising phase Plateau Early rising phase Plateau
V0 (L s−1) 3.19 ± 0.03 2.46 ± 0.01 2.90 ± 0.05 2.40 ± 0.01
r2 0.9920 0.9994 0.9810 0.9975

Vo (mean ± s.e.m.) was obtained as the slope of the linear regression linking release distance and slack time. n = 10 slack test releases for each value of Vo. r2 is the squared correlation coefficient.
