ENERGY COST OF CONTRACTION IN FAST AND SLOW MUSCLE FIBRES ISOLATED FROM AN ELASMOBRANCH AND AN ANTARCTIC TELEOST FISH

1. Single fast and small bundles of slow fibres were isolated from the muscles of an elasmobranch (dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula) and an Antarctic teleost (Notothenia neglecta). A third fibre type present in the dogfish (superficial fibre) was also isolated. Fibres were chemically skinned with a no...
