Experiment setup showing that the exposed sciatic nerve is stimulated by a bipolar hook electrode (Stim.A) and blocked by a tripolar cuff electrode (Stim.B). Stim.C is used to confirm the nerve block. The frog legs are immersed in a Ringer’s solution bath and fixed by multiple pins. A thread is attached to the foot and the force transducer to record the muscle contraction force. Stim.A and Stim.C: frequency 0.5 Hz, pulse width 0.2 ms; Stim.B: 5 kHz or 10 kHz.
