Carbonic anhydrase activity in mammalian skeletal and cardiac muscle.
1. The presence of extravascular carbonic anhydrase activity in skeletal muscle, and its absence from cardiac muscle, were demonstrated in the rat. 2. The activity in skeletal muscle is approximately correlated with the proportion of dark fibres present in the middle fibre bundles.
