Figure 5. Changes in pHs, pHi and Em in a single EDL fibre in the absence and presence of 0.01 mm BZ.

Figure 5

BZ induced an enhanced extracellular alkalinization on the surface of the muscle fibre during lactate uptake and a greater acidic pHs shift during lactate release as compared to control conditions. BZ slowed down dpHi/dt and reduced ΔpHi. The resting potential was not affected either by the lactate transport or by BZ.
