title: Inactivation of the slow potassium outward current in crab muscle fibre.
abstract: The slow outward current (IK2) recorded in crab muscle fibre using the double sucrose gap method decreases when high and maintained depolarizations are applied. This decrease corresponds to a true inactivation of the potassium conductance rather than to a shift in the reversal potential of the charge carrying ion following local accumulation.
