Muscular fatigue investigated by phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance
Nature
|August 31, 1978
Abstract:
Muscular fatigue has been studied using 31PNMR to measure the levels and rates of utilisation of several key metabolites and the free-energy change for ATP hydrolysis. Force development is closely correlated with metabolite levels and is proportional to the rate at which ATP is hydrolysed.
