Curare and Post-Mortem Changes in Skeletal Muscle of Piètrain Pigs

Tubocurare given intramuscularly ante-mortem reduced the extent to which biochemical changes occurred in m. longissimus dorsi and in the red and white areas of m. semitendinosus of Piètrain pigs at or immediately after death. The subsequent rates of ATP hydrolysis, lactate formation and pH fall were...

Description
Summary:	Tubocurare given intramuscularly ante-mortem reduced the extent to which biochemical changes occurred in m. longissimus dorsi and in the red and white areas of m. semitendinosus of Piètrain pigs at or immediately after death. The subsequent rates of ATP hydrolysis, lactate formation and pH fall were not reduced curarisation.
