title: [The effect of calcium on the contractility of uterine strips in vitro].
abstract: Using a standard isometric method, the authors investigated the effect of some cations and nifedipine on the contractility of isolated strips of the human uterus in vitro. Evidence was provided that the contractility depends on the extracellular surface concentration of the calcium cation. Under the experimental set-up used intracellular calcium does not play any part and the contractions of the uterine strip depend on the state of the calcium channels.
