About this document
Effect of Voltage on Muscle Contraction by Ariel Hidalgo is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes an experiment examining the effect of stimulus voltage on skeletal muscle contraction. As voltage increased from 1.0 to 10 volts, active force first increased and then plateaued at a maximal value as more muscle fibers were recruited. The threshold voltage for this muscle was 0.8 volts and the maximal voltage was 8.5 volts, above which no additional increase in force occurred.
