[Optical property changes during activity of myocardial trabeculae and skeletal muscle of Rana esculenta].
The contractile activity,measured on a small portion of myocardial trabeculae or skeletal muscle, is accompanied by optical changes, analyzed using a signal averaging technique. Scattering changes correspond mainly to structural modifications (volume); absorption changes are attributed to early metabolic events while birefringence changes are related to variations in mechanical tension.
