Figure 13.

Stroke completion is characterized by the distance between the P-bend and R-bend at the time the opposing bend begins. This value is estimated from the product of the bend propagation speed and the time delay before the opposite bend begins (Figure 11). (a) Power stroke completion increases with viscosity in oda2. (b) oda2 cells have a generally longer power stroke than wt. The difference is statistically significant at low and medium viscosity values. (c) Recovery stroke completion in wt and ida1 cells decreases with viscosity. (d) Recovery completion is significantly lower (p<0.01) in ida1 than in wt at low and medium viscosity.
