Muscular – Animal

Record EMG to investigate the properties of skeletal muscle. Record and display raw and integrated EMG signals; overlap the signals for better correlation of the data. Measure strength and repeat trials for motor unit recruitment /summation and fatigue. Demonstrate the treppe (staircase) phenomenon. Study the contractility of skeletal muscle with the force transducer and stimulator. The frog gastrocnemius lesson records threshold, maximal response, summation, tetanus, and fatigue.

General-purpose Electrodes These pre-gelled disposable electrodes have a circular contact and are most suitable for short-term recordings, including surface EMG, ECG, EOG, etc. The small vinyl backing allows close electrode placement where necessary, and a slightly less firm adhesive allows "ouchless" removal. The electrodes incorporate liquid electrolyte gel and moderately-high chloride salt concentration for quick, accurate readings.…
