Overview

Does not yet change cardiac practice; extends ultrastructural model of myosin-based contraction for future research.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Myofibrils isolated from frog, rabbit, lobster, scallop, and clam muscles
I
Intervention
Electron microscopy and extraction in weakly alkaline salt solutions
O
Outcome
Structure of cross striations and myosin filaments

Electron microscopy reveals that myosin filaments form the continuous contractile units within muscle myofibrils.
