THE RESPONSE OF THE ISOLATED SKIN OF RATS TO DRUGS AND ELECTRICAL STIMULATION.
A new method of transmural stimulation (Hellmann, 1963b) has been used to examine the responses of the rat panniculus carnosus, a skeletal muscle which lines the skin. This preparation responded to drugs and to electrical excitation in the same way as other mammalian skeletal muscle preparations. The relaxation phase, when examined with fast recording systems, was complicated by what appeared to be the "tone" of the muscle.
