Analysis of results calculated using the Split method. (A) Relative β-MHC content calculated by Gaussian curve fitting for 29 ventricular samples plotted against the corresponding Split method estimate. (B) Dashed lines show asymmetric Gaussian curves calculated with α = 1/2σ−2 and Φ = 1. The solid curve is the sum of the Gaussians. (C and D) The Split method estimates of the relative content of the bottom band for simulated profiles. Different lines show calculations for different relative contents. Panel C shows calculated values for symmetric (Φ = 0) Gaussians. Panel D shows calculated values for asymmetric Gaussians (Φ = 1).
