[The effect of preliminary acute hypothermia on the characteristics of the single contraction of rat skeletal muscle].
The time parameters and amplitude of the m.gastrocnemius contraction in rats were studied under conditions of acute hypothermia. The contraction time was found to increase whereas the contraction force decreased in acute hypothermia.
