Table 1 Characteristics of calcium transients
From: The beginning of the calcium transient in rat embryonic heart
Rate (min−1) | Time to peak (ms) | Time constant of decay (ms) | |
|---|---|---|---|
E 10.03–E 10.06 days with only calcium transient (area surrounded by the broken line in Fig. 3, n = 8) | 55.7 ± 3.8 | 165.7 ± 13.0 | 234.7 ± 9.9 |
E 10.03–E 10.06 days with calcium transient and contraction (area surrounded by the broken line in Fig. 3, n = 8) | 52.7 ± 3.1 | 170.8 ± 12.0 | 235.1 ± 15.1 |
E 10.5 days (16 min after transfer to the incubator, n = 5) | 98.7 ± 4.9*,† | 124.6 ± 9.8 | 132.5 ± 9.7*,† |
